'''2-Player Battle''' is a game mode in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. It involves, as the name implies, two players, who control [[Captain Olimar]] and [[Louie]], with a party of up to 50 [[Red Pikmin|Red]] or [[Blue Pikmin]], respectively. Each player can start the match with a multiple of 5 [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] between 5 and 50, and cannot exceed 50 total Pikmin on the battlefield at any time. 2-Player Battle mode takes place in underground areas, their layouts [[Randomness|random]]ly picked from a list. Each player has a related [[Onion]], near which a similarly-colored marble lies at the start of the game. There are four [[#Ways to win|ways to win]] and ten differently-themed areas to play on, ranging in difficulty.

==Roulette wheel==
==Items==
The roulette wheel can be accessed when a player finds a cherry and a Pikmin successfully returns it to the Onion. Cherries in this mode spawn [[Randomness|random]]ly, and only one Pikmin is needed to carry one. When the roulette finishes spinning (automatically), it'll randomly land on a power, which the player can use at any moment by pressing {{button|gc|y|wii|-|switch|y}}.

If more cherries are collected before the player uses the current power, they'll be added to a queue, represented on the top-right corner with red dots, for a maximum of 5 powers waiting to be used. Pressing {{button|gc|y|wii|-|switch|y}} will use the power and instantly make the roulette spin for the next one. The spinning takes around three seconds, which stops the player from using an item right after another.

*Within the game's files, one can find textures for 3 unused Roulette Wheel slots: an [[Antenna Beetle]], a [[Spotty Bulbear]], and a combination of a [[Fiery Dweevil|Fiery]] and [[Hydro Dweevil]], the latter having a duplicate file with the same name, but with "_old" appended. The backgrounds' colors and lines indicate that these slots were removed before the final icon textures were cleaned up.

*In this mode, the leaders are immune to the Watery Blowhog's water-like liquid and the Fiery Blowhog's fire.

*In the [[GameCube]] games, the [[idle]] Pikmin at the start of a match will not have glowing stems. If they are taken in the group and then made idle again, their stems will glow like normal. This [[glitches in Pikmin 2|glitch]] was fixed in the ''[[New Play Control!]]'' versions.
