'''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. | '''2-Player Battle''' is a game mode in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''.

Returning a [[Cupid's Grenade|cherry]] to an Onion will allow a spin of the [[#Roulette wheel|roulette wheel]]. To make things even, [[Red Pikmin]] have lost their extra strength, and bodies of water are absent. However, both types are still immune to their respective elements. If a Pikmin dies from an attack caused by the other team's Pikmin, it will be transformed into a seed, which is expelled from the Onion right away. Regardless, if said Pikmin is the last one alive, a [[Pikmin extinction]] will still occur. [[Ultra-bitter spray]]s, when used against the opponent's Pikmin, will burrow them, and revert them to [[Maturity|leaf state]]. However, they'll pop out of the ground automatically after 10 seconds. Leaders cannot [[punch]] each other or opposing Pikmin, nor can they interact with the enemy's Pikmin, besides being attacked by them. These Pikmin pummels merely deny the victim player the use of {{button|gc|a|wii|a}} and {{button|gc|b|wii|b}}, as they cause no damage to the leader, although they also make the leader invulnerable to other [[enemy]] attacks. | Returning a [[Cupid's Grenade|cherry]] to an Onion will allow a spin of the [[#Roulette wheel|roulette wheel]].

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|-}}. | The roulette wheel can be accessed when a player finds a cherry and a Pikmin successfully returns it to the Onion.

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|-}} 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. | 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.
