The '''Alien Billboard''' is a Kiwi brand shoe polish lid. It is found on the first sublevel of the [[White Flower Garden]].


The '''Alien Billboard''' ({{j|古代の広告|Kodai no Kōkoku|Ancient Advertisement}}) is a treasure found in the game ''[[Pikmin 2]]'' and is actually the lid of a Kiwi brand shoe polish container. In the North American and Japanese [[Region|versions]] of the game, it is found on the first sublevel of the [[White Flower Garden]]. There are a few pests such as [[Sheargrub]]s that may be a problem if they're not taken care of.

===Olimar's Journal===
''"There are several different patterns drawn on this object's surface. They appear to be characters or letters, but I can't make any sense of them. This is just an educated guess, but I wonder if this object is a kind of alien bulletin board? The size of the object seems about right for it."''
===Sales Pitch===
''"Perhaps this is some ancient billboard...but perhaps not. Its authenticity may be in question, but if you can use it for inspiration, you may become a topflight ad executive."''


In the [[Pikmin 2 (Nintendo Switch)|Switch port]], the treasure is an unbranded shoe polish container. The text on it reads:
