The Treasure Gauge is a device found in ''Pikmin 2'' and ''Pikmin 4'' that helps with tracking down every treasure in the game, no matter if is out in the open, an enemy has it or it is buried. In ''Pikmin 2'', it is obtained by collecting the [[Prototype Detector]] from the [[Empress Bulblax]] in the [[Hole of Beasts]]. When it is in the Exploration Kit, a gauge appears on the [[HUD]]. In it, there is a needle that wiggles continuously when a treasure is in the current field or cave, and the closer the current leader is to a treasure, the farther to the right it goes, and the harder it beeps. If there are no treasures in a given area or sublevel, the gauge will be greyed out, and a chime will sound shortly after collecting the last treasure. It can be interfered with by the [[Antenna Beetle]], [[Gildemandwee]], and [[Gildemander]], the only Exploration Kit upgrade to be specifically targeted in gameplay.

In [[Olimar's Shipwreck Tale]] in ''Pikmin 4'', there is a device known as the Parts Detector. It shares its icon with the Treasure Gauge and works exactly the same, except it detects Olimar's lost [[ship part]]s instead of treasure.
