'''Colosseum''' is an arena for [[2-Player mode|2-Player Battle]] in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. It is full of many, many Dwarf Red and Snow Bulborbs. It is one of the few stages with a mass number of enemies.

*Lots of Dwarf Bulborbs are resting in this area. Depending on what configuration of the colosseum you are in, it may depend on how many Armored Cannon Beetle Larva are in the area.

The number of Armored Cannon Beetle Larvae in the area depends on what configuration the stage is in. Usually, the Cannon Beetles rest close by at least one of the player's [[Onion]]s, and if you're low on [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] you may want to pick these up for a boost. If you have a configuration with many Cannon Beetles, at least one may be holding a marble.


There are a lot of Dwarf Bulborbs. Some of them hold yellow marbles, but note that the number of those that do depends on the configuration. Be careful though, many of them are close enough together that you will have to fight them all at the same time.
*Like previously noted, the Dwarf Red Bulborbs may drop yellow marbles. Sometimes this is common, other times it happens quite rarely. If you have a configuration with many cannon beetles, at least one Dwarf will be holding a marble. The Snow Bulborbs may also become an annoyance, as they usually unite in a gang of three, four, and sometimes even five.


The passageways can get narrow, and Armored Cannon Beetle Larvae found in them can be very annoying to kill, at the least. This also makes it harder to avoid the [[Volatile Dweevil]] from the roulette wheel.
*This is also one of the arenas with no hazards, apart from the enemies. The volatile dweevil from the roulette wheel may be a very dangerous enemy in this arena, as most of the colosseum's walls are quite narrow and it is very easy to get cornered by an unwanted enemy.


This stage contains many eggs, meaning more [[Nectar|nectar]] for your Pikmin or sometimes, quite rarely, some [[Ultra-spicy spray|Ultra-Spicy]]/[[Ultra-bitter spray|Bitter Sprays]] for you to use upon your opponent or against enemies such as the Cannon Beetles.

This article or section needs to be cleaned up, either its format or general style.
Notes: The article is, in my opinion, horribly designed. Major cleanup is necessary.

Stage preview for the Colosseum arena.

Colosseum is an arena for 2-Player Battle in Pikmin 2. The arena has a theme similar to that of the caves in the Valley of Repose. The layout for the levels here is pretty straightforward. It is home to a large number of Dwarf Red and Snow Bulborbs, as well as a few Armored Cannon Beetle Larvae.

Strategies

  • The Cannon Beetle Larva do not hold any reward at all, besides their carcasses. They may be a great way to deal with the pesky Dwarf Bulborbs, as their rocks have enough strength in them to kill a Dwarf instantly.
  • Lots of Dwarf Bulborbs are resting in this area. Depending on what configuration of the colosseum you are in, it may depend on how many Armored Cannon Beetle Larva are in the area. Usually, the Cannon Beetle Larva rest close to at least one player's onion, meaning if you're low on Pikmin you may want to pick these up to raise the population of your Pikmin.
  • Like previously noted, the Dwarf Red Bulborbs may drop yellow marbles. Sometimes this is common, other times it happens quite rarely. If you have a configuration with many cannon beetles, at least one Dwarf will be holding a marble. The Snow Bulborbs may also become an annoyance, as they usually unite in a gang of three, four, and sometimes even five.
  • This is also one of the arenas with no hazards, apart from the enemies. The volatile dweevil from the roulette wheel may be a very dangerous enemy in this arena, as most of the colosseum's walls are quite narrow and it is very easy to get cornered by an unwanted enemy.
  • The Colosseum can be home to many eggs, meaning more nectar for your Pikmin or, if you're lucky, some Ultra Spicy/Bitter Sprays. These can be used against your opponent or against powerful enemies, such as the cannon beetles. It is recommended to break all of the eggs to get the sprays and nectar before your opponent can.
