→Key Collected (Challenge Mode): Weird discovery.
(Added "Rest" as an alternate name for the track "Relax" due to it being the fan given name to the track for many years, like the rest of the alternate names.) |

No matter what sublevel is being explored in [[Challenge Mode (Pikmin 2)|Challenge Mode]], collecting [[The Key]] will yield this theme (unless the leaders are still actively engaging a boss, in which case the theme is heard when the boss is defeated). Although the random organ and trumpet gestures can convey many different chord progressions on their own, the steady piano playing A♭ keeps the progression of the whole piece sounding like a suspended D♭ progression. There is no resolution to D♭, so this theme actually gives the player a sense of tension to continue on to the next sublevel or the end of the cave, augmented by the ticking clock, of course. It should also be mentioned that this track yields no swing variation if Louie takes the lead. | No matter what sublevel is being explored in [[Challenge Mode (Pikmin 2)|Challenge Mode]], collecting [[The Key]] will yield this theme (unless the leaders are still actively engaging a boss, in which case the theme is heard when the boss is defeated).

Due to an oversight, the bass drum can only be heard if the current sublevel's song was either [[#Soil 2|Soil 2]] or [[#Soil 3|Soil 3]]. The bass drum sample is not automatically loaded into memory upon collecting The Key, so it must have been previously loaded from either of those two songs in order to be heard. | |||
