'''Ultra-bitter spray''' is the purple colored [[spray]] in ''[[Pikmin 2]]'' that the player can get from ten purple [[Burgeoning Spiderwort]] berries, or by finding a [[Spray#Spray nectar|concentrated dose]]. When used, it temporarily turns any nearby [[enemy]] or [[bomb-rock]] into stone, rendering them unable to do anything.

There are fewer ultra-bitter berry carrying Burgeoning Spiderworts, which makes the spray harder to obtain in comparison to [[ultra-spicy spray]]s. In addition, this spray is normally discovered after the ultra-spicy spray, because while ultra-spicy spray is found on the required path in the [[Awakening Wood]], ultra-bitter spray is not found until after the acquisition of [[White Pikmin]], near the [[Bulblax Kingdom]]. Unlike the [[ultra-spicy spray]], this spray type does not return in ''[[Pikmin 3]]''.

This spray can be deployed by pressing {{button|gc|padu|wii|1}}. Any [[enemy]] or [[bomb-rock]] in the direction of the cursor instantly becomes immobilized and slowly turns into stone. In the case of {{npcp2}}, the leader will spray in front of them, but the cursor's direction is still what matters. The enemy is only temporarily immobilized and will eventually break free. Before reaching this point, the enemy begins shaking, as an indication that the petrification is wearing off. In total, this effect lasts for nine seconds – one second for the stones to form, and eight seconds of complete encasement.

Any regular enemy that becomes petrified will have its defense decreased, such that all Pikmin and leader attacks cause 150% normal damage. However, any petrified boss will have its defense increased, and all attacks will cause only 25% normal damage (except, potentially, the weaponless form of the Titan Dweevil). Purple Pikmin stomps and bomb-rock damage is not changed either way.
Any enemy that becomes petrified will have its defense changed in some way, such that all Pikmin standard attacks and leader [[punch]]es cause more or less damage. Purple Pikmin stomps and bomb-rock damage is not changed either way. The following table explains how much damage attacks will cause when the enemy is petrified:

Petrifying enemies that are in the process of eating any [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] will make it possible to save those Pikmin from dying. Likewise, bomb-rocks that were in the middle of their countdown will freeze, allowing the leaders and Pikmin a chance of reaching safety. It should also be noted that a petrified dormant bomb-rock will become active after the petrification ends, even if it wasn't attacked during.
