'''Colosseum''' is the fifth [[2-Player Battle]] stage in {{p2}}. The stage uses the snow theme used in some cave sublevels in the [[Valley of Repose]]. It is home to a large number of [[Dwarf Bulborb|Dwarf Red Bulborb]]s and [[Snow Bulborb]]s, as well as a few [[Armored Cannon Larva|Armored Cannon Beetle Larva]]e.
'''Colosseum''' is an arena for [[2-Player mode|2-Player Battle]] in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. The arena has a snowy theme to it. The layout is, for the most part, many open rooms filled with enemies that are connected by corridors. It is home to many Dwarf Red and Snow Bulborbs as well as a few Armored Cannon Beetle Larvae, which gives this stage a mass number of enemies but no hazards.

*The Dwarf Red Bulborbs here may give up [[Crystallized Telekinesis|yellow marbles]] when defeated.
The number of Armored Cannon Beetle Larvae in the area depends on which of the 3 layouts is randomly picked. Usually, the Cannon Beetles rest close by at least one of the player's [[Onion]]s, and if you're low on [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] you may want to carry these to the Onion for a boost. You can also use the Beetles to kill the Dwarf Red Bulborbs, as a single rock can instantly defeat any one of them.


There are a lot of Dwarf Bulborbs in the arena. Some of them hold yellow marbles, but note that the number of those that do depends on the layout. Be careful though, many of them are close enough together that you will have to fight them all at the same time.
*The Cannon Beetle Larvae do not hold any reward at all, despite their carcasses. They may be a great way to deal with the pesky Dwarf Bulborbs, as their rocks have enough strength in them to kill a Dwarf instantly.


The passageways can get narrow, and Armored Cannon Beetle Larvae found in them can be very annoying to kill. This also makes it harder to avoid the [[Volatile Dweevil]] from the roulette wheel.
*Lots of dwarf bulborbs are resting in this area. Depending on what configuration of the colosseum you are in, it may depend on how many Armored Cannon Beetle Larva are in the area. Usually, the Cannon Beetle Larvae rest close to at least one player's onion, meaning if you're low on Pikmin you may want to pick these up to raise the population of your Pikmin.


This stage contains many eggs, meaning more [[nectar]] for your Pikmin or sometimes, quite rarely, some [[Ultra-spicy spray|ultra-spicy]]/[[ultra-bitter spray|bitter sprays]]. It is recommended to break all of the eggs to get the sprays and nectar before your opponent can.
*Like previously noted, the Dwarf Red Bulborbs may drop yellow marbles. Sometimes  this is common, other times it happens quite rarely. If you have a configuration with many cannon beetles, at least one Dwarf will be holding a marble. The Snow Bulborbs may also become an annoyance, as they usually unite in a gang of three, four, and sometimes even five.

*This is also one of the arenas with no hazards, apart from the enemies. The volatile dweevil from the roulette wheel may be a very dangerous enemy in this arena, as most of the colosseum's walls are quite narrow and it is very easy to get cornered by an unwanted enemy.

*The Colosseum can be home to many eggs, meaning more nectar for your Pikmin or, if you're lucky, some Ultra Spicy/Bitter Sprays. These can be used against your opponent or against powerful enemies, such as the cannon beetles. It is <span style="font-size: 11pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif";">recommended </span>to break all of the eggs to get the sprays and nectar before your opponent can.
