On the way, however, Olimar discovers that Louie was left behind. When he meets up with the President, he notifies him about the fact that there are still more treasures available. The President gleefully tries to command Olimar and Louie to go back and gather more goods, until he realizes that Louie is not around. He chooses to take his place instead. At this point, the final area is unlocked: the [[Wistful Wild]]. In it, they manage to find Louie on the [[Dream Den]], atop a [[Titan Dweevil]]. They save him, and at their own pace, they eventually manage to clear the areas of all treasure.

===Endings===
This game has two endings, and they can be both obtained in the same playthrough. The first ending occurs when the debt is repaid, while the second happens when all treasures are collected. It is not quite clear which ending is the [[canon]] one, or if the plot line even includes a ''Pikmin 2'' ending to begin with. The events of ''Pikmin 3'' involving the Hocotatians and their backstory fit in with any scenario on ''Pikmin 2'', except for the case in which the debt is repaid, but Louie is not rescued from the Dream Den.
