The '''Piklopedia''' ({{j|生物図鑑|Seibutsu Zukan|Creature Picture Book}}) is an in-game list of all the [[Enemy|enemies]] and [[plant]]s in ''[[Pikmin 2]]'' that the player has come in contact with throughout their exploration. The player can access the [[Menu/Piklopedia and Treasure Hoard|Piklopedia's menu]] by pressing {{button|gc|l|wii|padl}} when on the [[Menu/Area selection|area selection menu]].

This catalog also keeps track of how many [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] have been lost to each enemy, how many of said enemy the player has defeated so far, and how many [[Poko]]s the enemy is worth. For fields that cannot be counted, four dashes appear instead. On top of that, it also contains [[#Notes|notes]] written down by Olimar and Louie. Selecting the slot of a creature that has not been seen yet will just produce static on the main "screen", and their grid slots will show their Piklopedia number, instead of their icon.

Both [[Captain Olimar]] and [[Louie]] write some notes about every entry in the Piklopedia. These notes are merely for fun and for world-building, and rarely contain any information useful for gameplay. Only the notes of unlocked entries can be seen. The comments written by both return in the [[Piklopedia (Pikmin 3 Deluxe)|Piklopedia]] of {{p3d}}, almost verbatim.
