This catalog also keeps track of how many [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] have been lost to each enemy, how many of said enemy the player has defeated so far, and how many [[Poko]]s the enemy is worth. For fields that cannot be counted, four dashes appear instead. On top of that, it also contains notes written down by Olimar and Louie; [[Olimar's notes]] talk about the enemy or plant in general, but [[Louie's notes]], if available, normally explain some cooking recipes involving the creatures. Louie's notes only become available (permanently) when the [[Titan Dweevil|final boss]] is defeated in any [[saved game]]. Selecting the slot of a creature that has not been seen yet will just produce static on the main "screen", and their grid slots will show their Piklopedia number, instead of their icon. | This catalog also keeps track of how many [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] have been lost to each enemy, how many of said enemy the player has defeated so far, and how many [[Poko]]s the enemy is worth.

[[Pikpik carrot]]s can be thrown at enemies to see their reaction, although the throws cannot be directly aimed – not even with the [[New Play Control! Pikmin 2|''New Play Control!'' remake]]'s enhanced cursor – and are loosely based on the direction the [[camera]] is facing. [[Ultra-bitter spray]]s can also be used on the non-plant creatures by pressing {{button|gc|z|wii|1}}; this does not affect the in-game spray count. | [[Pikpik carrot]]s can be thrown at enemies to see their reaction, although the throws cannot be directly aimed – not even with the [[New Play Control!
