Collecting the treasure

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

Blossoming Arcadia

There is a Universal Rubber Cutie on the ground in the top-right corner of Subarea 1 of the Secluded Courtyard. Upon approaching it, a horde of Skitter Leaves will fall from the sky, which should be dealt with before attempting to collect it. To collect this treasure, you must throw 10 Pikmin at it. They will need to cross a small body of water, so you must either have 10 Blue Pikmin collect it, or have 5 Ice Pikmin in your party to freeze the water.

Serene Shores

There is a Universal Rubber Cutie surrounded by iron fences in the upper edge of Sublevel 2 of the Seafloor Resort. To lower the iron fences, you must press the button in the upper right corner of the sublevel. To do so, you must burst a hydro jelly which contains a climbing stick, meaning Ice Pikmin are mandatory to collect this treasure. Once the hydro jelly is burst, the Pikmin will climb the stick and land on the button, allowing you to throw 10 Pikmin at the treasure.

Giant's Hearth

There is a Universal Rubber Cutie in the the far right of the overworld, behind an Arachnode’s web. To collect this treasure, you must first defeat the Arachnode, then throw 10 Pikmin at it.

Notes

Schnauz's Notes

“Have you ever laid eyes on something more adorable? I, for one, have not! Gazing upon its features fills me with… Is it admiration? Awe? Well, whatever it is, I recommend everyone open their eyes and their hearts to this sublime (and squeaky!) being.”

Olimar's Notes

“The first time I laid eyes on this treasure, I thought it was a giant aquatic monster! It took me a few paralyzing seconds to realize that it’s just a statue. What a relief… If such an attractive creature were to attack me, I’d be too entranced to run away!”

Louie's Notes

“This thing is huge. It’ll take a whole day to eat in its entirety.”

Trivia

• Olimar’s notes on the Universal Rubber Cutie is almost a direct copy of his notes for the Rubber Ugly (another rubber duck treasure) in Pikmin 2, with some parts being rewritten to reflect the treasure’s cuteness, as apposed to ugliness.
