The '''Rubber Ugly''' ({{j|天下一ブサイク|Tenkaichi Busaiku|World's Ugliest}}) is a [[treasure]] in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. It is a {{w|rubber duck}}, and is found in sublevel 6 of the [[Shower Room]]. [[Captain Olimar|Olimar]] thinks this treasure is hideous, in humorous contrast to his feelings of the [[Paradoxical Enigma]], which he apparently perceives as a beautiful work of art.
The '''Rubber Ugly''' is a treasure in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. It is the third treasure found in the sixth sublevel in the [[Shower Room]]. It is found in water, which means [[Blue Pikmin]] are needed to get it. A [[Bumbling Snitchbug]] may be near it so take it out before collecting the prize. [[Captain Olimar|Olimar]] thinks this treasure is hideous, in humorous contrast to his feelings of the [[Paradoxical Enigma]], which he apparently perceives as a beautiful work of art. It is actually a [[wikipedia:Rubber Duck|rubber duck]].


==Collecting the treasure==
==Prototype==
{{guide}}
This treasure is in the [[Shower Room#Sublevel 6|Shower Room's 6th sublevel]]. It is likely to be found in [[water]], which means [[Blue Pikmin]] are required to get it. A [[Bumbling Snitchbug]] may be nearby, so take it out before collecting the treasure.


{{Notes|journal=y|sale=y}}
The Rubber Ugly, in the beta version of the game, was found in an unknown cave, definitely not the Shower Room, and had a different appearance.

* '''Translation''': {{transcript|When I first saw it, I was startled, thinking it was a giant aquatic creature, but in fact it was just a colossal statue. I was relieved. If such an ugly creature had actually existed and attacked me, I would have had no choice but to clumsily run away...}}

==Trivia==

*The Rubber Ugly was originally going to be called the Ugly Duckling.

*In ''[[Pikmin 3]]'', [[Charlie]] brings a rubber duck, much like the Rubber Ugly, on all of his missions for good luck. However, considering how large the Rubber Ugly is compared to a Hocotation or a Koppaite, Rubber Duckies on Koppai probably are much smaller. 
*In ''Pikmin 2,'' the treasure hoard logo is the beta icon for the Rubber Ugly (notice its black lifeless eyes, compared to its eyes in-game).

==Trivia==
{{Treasure Hoard}}
*The Rubber Ugly could also be found in an early version of the game. It was placed in an unknown [[cave]], definitely not the Shower Room, and had a different appearance.
*It could be said that the Rubber Ugly is what represents treasures in ''Pikmin 2'', since it appears as the icon whenever the game needs to refer to treasures: it is the icon used on the saved game selection menu for the number of treasures, and the icon for the [[Treasure Hoard]] button while on the area selection screen. It is also the first treasure when listed alphabetically by the treasures' internal names (<code>ahiru</code>), and has the treasure ID of <code>0</code>. Additionally, it is featured prominently in [[Pikmin 2 prerelease information|prerelease]] trailers and screenshots.
*In {{p4}}, there is an entire [[series]] of rubber ducks treasures all called "[[Rubber Cutie Series|Rubber Cutie]]", directly contrasting the name of this treasure.
