Collecting the treasure

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

Nintendo Switch and North American/European GameCube/Wii versions

This treasure is found in the second sublevel of the Shower Room. It may be near some Dwarf Orange Bulborbs or even the Orange Bulborb in the sublevel. Defeat the Bulborbs and attack the Lesser Spotted Jellyfloat if necessary.

In the Japanese GameCube/Wii version, the Revised Eternal Fuel Dynamo is found in this location.

Japanese GameCube/Wii version

This treasure is located in the seventh sublevel of the Cavern of Chaos. It may be near some Puffy Blowhogs, Withering Blowhogs, and Cloaking Burrow-nits. Take them out along with the poison emitters so they won't harm the Pikmin as they carry it back to the ship's pod.

In other versions, the Fuel Reservoir is found in this location.

Notes

Olimar's journal

“This cryptic item exhibits an unbelievable quantity of stored, dormant energy. The civilization that created this must have advanced tremendously when it discovered this powerful new energy source. If I were to take this technology back home, how would it affect the future of Hocotate?”

Sales pitch

“Humanoid history is one big scramble for energy, and this is a colossal fountain of it. Has the change to renewable energy on Hocotate already begun? We machines watch...”
