The '''Positron Generator''' ({{j|ポジトロン発電機|Pojitoron Hatsudenki|Positron Generator|}}) is a [[ship part]] in ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'', found at [[The Impact Site]]. It is a green, rounded object with two golden antennas on the top. [[Olimar]] mentions he uses this to heat up his "Instant Space Noodles". When collected, it does not change the ship's appearance.
