The '''Child of the Earth''' ({{j|大地の息子|Daichi no Musuko|Son of the Earth}}) is a treasure found in ''[[Pikmin 2]]'' and ''[[Pikmin 4]]''. It is actually a {{w|potato}}. In ''Pikmin 2'', it's found in Sublevel 3 of the [[Cavern of Chaos]] buried underground. [[White Pikmin]] are needed to [[dig]] it up. There are multiple [[Creeping Chrysanthemum|Creeping Chrysanthemums]] and [[Mamuta|Mamutas]] which will disturb you if you carry the treasure back to the pod too early. In ''Pikmin 4'', it is at the bottom of the summit with the wheel in [[Sun-Speckled Terrace]]. Once you cross the bridge, take a turn right. Use the [[Treasure Gauge]] to find it under the soil, and then use your [[Pikmin]] to dig it up.
