[[File:thumb_fivemannapsack.jpg|frame|Concept art of the treasure.]]
The '''Five-man Napsack''' ({{j|快眠アシスタント|Kaimin Ashisutanto|Sweet Dream Assistant}}) is a plaid and very worn flannel {{w|glove}}, a treasure in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. It is found on the last sublevel (the fifth) of the [[White Flower Garden]], and is held by a [[Burrowing Snagret]]. Once this treasure is retrieved, the [[Napsack]] is added to the [[Exploration Kit]]. Like [[Treasure#Dynamic weights|some other treasures]], if the player defeats the Burrowing Snagret, but does not have enough Pikmin to carry the Five-man Napsack, which requires the strength of 15 Pikmin, it will change weight to match the player's army.
The '''Five-man Napsack''' is a plaid and very worn flannel [[Wikipedia:Glove|glove]], a treasure in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. It is found on the last [[sublevel]] (the fifth) of the [[White Flower Garden]], and is held by a troublesome [[Burrowing Snagret]]. Once this treasure is retrieved, the Napsack is added to the [[Exploration Kit]].


==Napsack==
{{Notes|journalgc=y|journalwii=y|sale=y|ship=y|shipnpc=y}}
The Napsack provides a quick method of returning to the Pikmin [[Onion]]s above ground or the [[Research Pod]] when [[cave|underground]], which is achieved by holding the {{button|gcn|X|wii|C}} once it has been obtained. When used, the [[Captain]] in control falls asleep, and any nearby [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]], up to a maximum of four, [[Carrying|carry]] him to their associated Onion, a minimum of just one being required.


This may seem like a useless ability, as it is possible to walk back to the Onions, taking more than four Pikmin as well; in actuality, the pilot is carried back as quickly as if all flowered [[White Pikmin]] were holding him, regardless of the color or maturity of the actual Pikmin doing the carrying. The practical application of this is that it saves precious time: additionally, while one Captain is being returned to the landing area, the player can control the other, thereby getting a little extra done.

This ability is similar to that in [[Pikmin (game)|''Pikmin'']], which is activated by holding {{button|gcn|Paddown|wii|2}}. Up to five Pikmin subsequently carry [[Captain Olimar|Olimar]] away, in doing so rendering him impervious to attacks. If any [[Pikmin (species)|Pikmin]] carry Olimar to one of their Onions, the Onion will spin like it is making more Pikmin, but it actually sends out fireworks and Olimar is safely returned to the ground. This function does not exist in ''Pikmin 2'', even though the Pikmin can carry Olimar to an [[Onion]].

In the first game, lying down made Captain Olimar completely impervious to attacks. This is not true in ''Pikmin 2'', save for the rocks that are spit by [[Armored Cannon Beetle Larva|Armored Cannon Beetle Larvae]] and [[Decorated Cannon Beetle]]s. If the [[Captain]] in the Napsack is picked up by a [[Dweevil]] and this beast wanders off the sublevel into the abyss, a [[Glitches in Pikmin 2#Frozen captain glitch|glitch]] occurs.
==Trivia==
*In the French version of Olimar's journal, in the North American version of the ''New Play Control!'' port, the text [[Mistake|incorrectly]] tells the player to use {{button|wii|+}} to [[lie down]]. This mistake is only present in this exact version of the journal.
