King of Bugs

The King of Bugs is a treasure in, and is the final one listed in the Treasure Hoard. The treasure is actually Louie, rescued from the Titan Dweevil in sublevel 14 of the Dream Den. Even after he is brought back, the player continues to control the President as the secondary leader from there on. The reason given by the crew to store him with the pile of treasure is because there is no room for him in the cockpit. He is tied with some other treasures for the least valuable treasure in the game.

Trivia

 * Louie's and the King of Bugs's spacesuits are slightly different, particularly the saturation of their antenna light.
 * This treasure and the Temporal Mechanism are the only two treasures that animate when not being carried – Louie's head bobs up and down when idling.
 * In the Japanese version and in an early version of the English translation, Olimar's notes on the King of Bugs are very different, mostly focusing on the Titan Dweevil and Pikmin, rather than suggesting that Louie could be controlling the creature.
