{{page title|Piklopedia (''Pikmin 2'')}}
In [[Pikmin 2]] the '''Piklopedia''' is an in-game list of all the plants and creatures you have come in contact with throughout your exploration. It is the counterpart to the [[Treasure Hoard]].

{{dablink|This article is about the in-game encyclopedia of enemies in ''Pikmin 2''. It is not to be confused with [[Pikipedia:About|Pikipedia]], the name of this wiki.}}

* Document what needs to be done to open each creature's entry. Some need to be defeated, and others need to be touched, but there may be more complex mechanics.
* Be more specific about what counts as "when the final boss is defeated" &ndash; is it when its health drops to 0, its treasures are recovered, the King of Bugs is recovered, etc.

[[File:P2 Piklopedia Menu.png|thumb|300px|Screenshot of the Piklopedia, on the [[Bulborb|Red Bulborb]]'s entry.]]
The '''Piklopedia''' ({{j|生物図鑑|Seibutsu Zukan|Creature Field Guide}}) is an in-game list of all the [[Enemy|enemies]] and [[plant]]s in ''[[Pikmin 2]]'' that the player has come in contact with throughout their exploration. The player can access the [[Menu/Piklopedia and Treasure Hoard|Piklopedia's menu]] by pressing {{button|gc|l|wii|padl|switch|padl}} when on the [[Menu/Area selection|area selection menu]].


This catalog also keeps track of how many [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] have been lost to each enemy, how many of said enemy the player has defeated so far, and how many [[Poko]]s the enemy is worth. For fields that cannot be counted, four dashes appear instead. On top of that, it also contains [[#Notes|notes]] written down by Olimar and Louie. Selecting the slot of a creature that has not been seen yet will just produce static on the main "screen", and their grid slots will show their Piklopedia number, instead of their icon.
==Creatures==


[[Pikpik carrot]]s can be thrown at enemies to see their reaction, although the throws cannot be directly aimed &ndash; not even with the [[New Play Control! Pikmin 2|''New Play Control!'' version]]'s enhanced cursor &ndash; and are loosely based on the direction the [[camera]] is facing. [[Ultra-bitter spray]]s can also be used on the non-plant creatures by pressing {{button|gc|z|wii|1|switch|rstickclick}}; this does not affect the in-game spray count, and can be used before those sprays are even discovered.
===Pikmin family===
{{main|Pikmin (species)}}
*[[Red Pikmin]]
*[[Yellow Pikmin]]
*[[Blue Pikmin]]
*[[Purple Pikmin]]
*[[White Pikmin]]
*[[Bulbmin]]
*[[Mushroom Pikmin]]


The Piklopedia is the counterpart to the [[Treasure Hoard]], which shares [[Music in Pikmin 2#Piklopedia/Treasure Hoard|the same music]].
===Grub-dog family===
{{main|Grub-dog}}
*[[Red Bulborb]]
*[[Hairy Bulborb]]
*[[Orange Bulborb]]
*[[Dwarf Bulbear]]
*[[Spotty Bulbear]]
*[[Fiery Bulblax]]
*[[Emperor Bulblax]]
*[[Empress Bulblax]]
*[[Bulborb Larva]]
*[[Water Dumple]]


Once the debt is repaid, both the Piklopedia and Treasure Hoard's unseen entries become shown, albeit still unfilled. This was most likely added to help the player track down the last few entries they are missing.

== Notes ==
===Arachnorb family===
Both [[Captain Olimar]] and [[Louie]] write some notes about every entry in the Piklopedia. These notes are merely for fun and for world-building, and rarely contain any information useful for gameplay. Only the notes of unlocked entries can be seen. The comments written by both return in the [[Piklopedia (Pikmin 3 Deluxe)|Piklopedia]] of {{p3d}} and the [[Piklopedia (Pikmin 4)|Piklopedia]] of {{p4}}, almost verbatim.
{{main|Arachnorb}}
*[[Beady Long Legs]]
*[[Man-at-Legs]]
*[[Raging Long Legs]]


=== Olimar's notes ===
===Snavian family===
{{for|a full list|Category:Olimar's notes|t1=Category:Olimar's notes}}
{{main|Snavian}}
*[[Burrowing Snagret]]
*[[Pileated Snagret]]


Olimar's notes focus on giving information about the creature, including its scientific name, habits, biological features, and mysteries. They can be read by picking an entry and pressing {{button|gc|x|wii|+|switch|+}}. His notes are always available as long as the entry is available.
===Blowhog family===
{{main|Blowhog}}
*[[Fiery Blowhog]]
*[[Watery Blowhog]]
*[[Puffy Blowhog]]
*[[Withering Blowhog]]

{{main|Lithopod}}
*[[Armored Cannon Beetle Larva]]
*[[Decorated Cannon Beetle]]
*[[Armored Cannon Beetle]] (Pikmin 1)


Louie's notes provide recipes on how to cook the creature. They can be read by picking an entry and pressing {{button|gc|y|wii|-|switch|-}}. His notes only become available when the player defeats the [[Titan Dweevil]] and recovers Louie as [[King of Bugs|a treasure]] for the first time. Once this happens, a global flag is set in the game's [[saved game|save data]], and his notes become available forever, for any [[Story Mode]] slot, even if the original slot is deleted.
===Creep-Crab family===
*[[Segmented Crawbster]]


==== Recipe oddities ====
===Crawmad family===
Interestingly, Louie references ingredients found on Earth (cultivated in oxygen). These ingredients could not possibly be known by Louie, as Hocotate has a severely different climate. A possible explanation might be that Hocotatians might have some ideas of what those ingredients are, or have a similar expression or object in their language, that are different from our world's ingredients.
*[[Hermit Crawmad]]


In addition, the following notes conflict with the way enemies die in-game in some way:
===Mandiblard family===
{{main|Mandiblard}}
*[[Sheargrub|Female Sheargrubs]]
*[[Sheargrub|Male Sheargrubs]]
*[[Shearwig|Shearwigs]]


* These enemies do not leave a corpse (in ''Pikmin 2'' specifically):
===Flint Beetle family===
** [[Beady Long Legs]]
*[[Iridescent Flint Beetle]]
** [[Greater Spotted Jellyfloat]]
** [[Lesser Spotted Jellyfloat]]
** [[Man-at-Legs]]
** [[Puffy Blowhog]]
** [[Raging Long Legs]]
** [[Titan Dweevil]]
** [[Withering Blowhog]]
* The [[Fiery Bulblax]] extinguishes itself upon defeat, but Louie's notes use the beast's flames as a cooking aid.
* The [[Hairy Bulborb]] loses hair as it loses health, and has none by the time it is dead.
* The [[Waterwraith]] is notable for not only not leaving any corpse, but its physical form being anchored to another dimension.


These same sort of oddities also exist in ''Pikmin 3 Deluxe''{{'s}} Piklopedia as listed [[Piklopedia (Pikmin 3 Deluxe)#Recipe oddities|here]], many of which carry over to ''Pikmin 4''{{'s}} Piklopedia which are listed [[Piklopedia (Pikmin 4)#Recipe oddities|here]].

When using the Piklopedia and the [[Treasure Hoard]], the scenery will change depending on what area [[Hocotate ship|the ship]] is hovering on, on the [[Menu#Area selection|area selection screen]]. Each object seen will spawn in a different, pre-specified location of the area. The [[Valley of Repose]], the [[Awakening Wood]] and the [[Perplexing Pool]] have some notable differences compared to their in-game counterparts, while the [[Wistful Wild]] is barely any different. For a list of differences in the two versions of an area, please read the corresponding area article. The following maps illustrate a top-down view of the Piklopedia and Treasure Hoard versions of the areas, excluding the Wistful Wild, which only has differences in background theme and barely any changes to the level design at all.
*[[Cloaking Burrow-nit]]


These slightly changed areas were also seen in [[Pikmin 2 prerelease information|prerelease material]].

==Entry criteria==
===Candypop Bud family===
{{stub|section=y|List the unlock requirements for each entry.}}
{{main|Candypop Bud}}
To unlock an entry in the Piklopedia, the player must find one of that object during gameplay and do something specific to it, which varies from entry to entry.
*[[Crimson Candypop Bud]]
*[[Golden Candypop Bud]]
*[[Lapis Lazuli Candypop Bud]]
*[[Violet Candypop Bud]]
*[[Ivory Candypop Bud]]
*[[Queen Candypop Bud]]


To note is that some entries will only be unlocked, and their kill/death stats will only be updated, if the player interacts with a specific variant of that object. For instance, having a buried Armored Cannon Beetle Larva kill 3 Pikmin and then be killed will not result in any change in the Piklopedia. The following is a list of all entries with this limitation:
===Dirigibug family===
* {{icon|Armored Cannon Larva|y|n=Armored Cannon Beetle Larva}}: only the free-roaming variant counts; the buried one does not.
*[[Careening Dirigibug]]
* {{icon|Gatling Groink|y}}: only the free-roaming variant counts; the tower one does not.
* {{icon|Lapis Lazuli Candypop Bud}} {{icon|Crimson Candypop Bud}} {{icon|Golden Candypop Bud}} {{icon|Violet Candypop Bud}} {{icon|Ivory Candypop Bud}} [[Candypop Bud]]s: throwing in one Pikmin is enough, it does not need to wither.
* {{icon|Figwort|y}}: only the large healthy variant counts; the small healthy, large dead, and small dead ones do not.
* {{icon|Glowstem|y}}: only the red variant counts; the green one does not.
* {{icon|Shoot|y}}: only the large variant counts; the small one does not.


==Enemies that can die==
===Scarpanid family===
Some enemies can actually die whilst on the Piklopedia.
{{main|Scarpanid}}
*[[Swooping Snitchbug]]
*[[Bumbling Snitchbug]]


* Volatile Dweevils blow up when awakened.
===Kettlebug family===
* [[Mandiblard]]s will lose health if they touch water, and can even drown.
*[[Antenna Beetle]]
* Due to a [[Glitches in Pikmin 2|glitch]], if one petrifies a [[Hermit Crawmad]] on dry land and throws several Pikpik carrots, the creature will gradually lose health, and can die.

==Trivia==
===Jellyfloat family===
[[File:Piklopedia zzdummy.png|right|The dummy texture.]]
{{main|Jellyfloat}}
*A dummy icon texture named <code>zzdummy</code> can be found within the Piklopedia's icon texture files. It's unused in the game, and it must have been used during development to represent enemies that had no icons at the time.
*[[Lesser Spotted Jellyfloat]]
*The icon textures for the [[Glowstem]] and [[Queen Candypop Bud]] have exact duplicates inside the game's files.
*[[Greater Spotted Jellyfloat]]
* [[File:Fiery Bulblax icon.png|right]] The icon for the [[Fiery Bulblax]] is 80 &times; 80 in size. This size is only used for [[boss]] icons, whereas normal enemies have icons that are 40 &times; 40. This indicates that in some [[Pikmin 2 prerelease information|early stage in development]], the Fiery Bulblax was meant to be a boss, as are the other two "Bulblax" [[Grub-dog family|grub-dogs]].
*Thrown [[pikpik carrots]] will rotate to "face" the creature. Their stems will bend away from it.
*If a pikpik carrot lands near a [[Bulborb|Red Bulborb]], [[Hairy Bulborb]], or [[Orange Bulborb]] just as it is about to go to sleep, its yawning and lying down animations will be sped up.
*According to Louie's notes, the following creatures are inedible: [[Hydro Dweevil]], [[Munge Dweevil]], [[Volatile Dweevil]], [[Crimson Candypop Bud]], [[Golden Candypop Bud]], [[Queen Candypop Bud]], [[Mamuta]], [[Glowstem]], [[Clover]], [[Foxtail]], [[Shoot]], [[Beady Long Legs]], [[Waterwraith]], [[Shaggy Long Legs]], [[Baldy Long Legs]], and [[Plasm Wraith]].
** In addition, the [[Doodlebug]] has no cooking tips and is suggested to be inedible, but is not outright stated as such, the [[Ivory Candypop Bud]] is not suggested to be inedible, but spoils upon seconds of picking, and the [[Raging Long Legs]], like the Doodlebug, is not outright claimed as inedible, but Louie's suggestion of feeding it to "''unpleasant'' in-laws" implies that it probably shouldn't be eaten anyway.
*The [[Bulborb]] icon used to represent the Piklopedia within the [[area selection menu]] is unique and does not seem to be exactly derived from any particular Bulborb variant in ''Pikmin 2''. Peculiarly, when examined very closely, the icon seems to be derived from the model of the juvenile [[Bulbmin]] (as evidenced by its completely black eyes, leg coloration and proportions, and white spot placement) with the leaf stem removed. Interestingly, the internal name for the texture is <code>chapy</code>, whereas the internal name for Bulborbs is usually spelled <code>chappy</code>. In the Switch re release, a modified version of this icon is used as the standby icon for Bulbmin, strengthening the connection.
*The Piklopedia bears many similarities to the [[bulbapedia:Pokédex|Pokédex]] from the [[bulbapedia:Pokémon|''Pokémon'' series]], as both are an encyclopedia of creatures, and both behave very similarly.
*The entries of most of the returning enemies from ''Pikmin'' are derived from the descriptions given to the creatures in the ''Pikmin'' Nintendo Player's Guide.
*According to Olimar's notes on the [[Shoot]] in the Japanese version, the team's reports on the planet's wildlife are based on information obtained using "portable scanners", with the hope that researchers will become interested in studying it.
