This article is about the rubber duck treasure. For the treasure which is just a head, see Paradoxical Enigma.

The Rubber Ugly (天下一ブサイク?, lit.: "World's Ugliest") is a treasure in Pikmin 2. It is a rubber duck, and is found in sublevel 6 of the Shower Room. Olimar thinks this treasure is hideous, in humorous contrast to his feelings of the Paradoxical Enigma, which he apparently perceives as a beautiful work of art.

Collecting the treasure

The following article or section contains guides.
The strategies shown are just suggestions.

This treasure is in the Shower Room's 6th sublevel. It is likely to be found in water, which means Blue Pikmin are required to get it. A Bumbling Snitchbug may be nearby, so take it out before collecting the treasure.

Notes

Olimar's journal

The first time I laid eyes on this hideous treasure, I though it was a giant aquatic monster! It took me several terror-filled seconds to realize that it's just an ugly statue. What a relief... I was ready to run all the way back to Hocotate!

Sales pitch

Ugliness that can destroy all beauty drives deep despair into the heart of the beholder. This hideous item is a must-have for connoisseurs of all things wretched and repellant.
