The Future Orb (ノー・フューチャー?, lit.: "No Future") is a treasure in Pikmin 2. It is actually a crystal ball set up on a wooden stand, with a red cloth in between.

Collecting the treasure[edit]

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

The Future Orb is found on the sublevel 6 of the Dream Den, inside a Greater Spotted Jellyfloat. When transporting the treasure back to the pod, multiple Jellyfloats and Cannon Beetles will attempt to kill the Pikmin carrying the treasure. There is also a quicksand pit in the center of the arena that may slow them down.

Notes

Olimar's journal

According to my analysis, this advanced contraption can reflect the future of those that peer into it. However, when the president looked into it into it, he saw total darkness. He said it must have been broken, but I'm not so sure...

Sales pitch

Is the future bright, or dark and dreary? If you are worried about tomorrow, this is for you! This multidimensional crystal visualizes the branches of time and displays the future.

Pikmin 2 website[edit]

Is your future bright and shiny, or is it pitch black and depressing? Why don't you find out? This crystal will show you the future.

Trivia[edit]

  • The reflection in the Future Orb's ball is actually just a copy of what the camera's currently viewing, but cropped, flipped vertically and with all HUD elements removed.
