The '''Decorative Goo''' ({{j|オレの色|Ore no Iro|My Color}}) is a treasure found in the game ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. It is a tube of blue "Mario Paint", ([[Reference|referencing]] the game ''[[mariowiki:Mario Paint|Mario Paint]]''). It is apparently used and is bent. The treasure is found in the [[Awakening Wood]] and right near the location of the [[Blue Onion]]. It has the Japanese writing "あおいろ"(BLUE) on it in the Japanese [[Region|version]] of the game.
In ''Pikmin 2'', the label reads "{{j|あおいろ|aoi ro|blue color|f=tp}}" in the Japanese [[Region|version]] of ''Pikmin 2'', and "Mario Paint" in the American and European version, [[Reference|referencing]] the game ''[[mariowiki:Mario Paint|Mario Paint]]''. In ''Pikmin 4'', the label is more generic with unreadable text, with the word "Blue" in bold alongside a yellow dot. Like other treasures in the [[Soulful Artist Series]], this one is reminiscent of [[Blue Pikmin]]. It can be found in a sublevel with [[water]] and many water-based enemies, and is likely the first place the player will discover Blue Pikmin.

Oddly, depending on the [[region]] and [[area]], the treasure will appear differently when viewed in the [[Treasure Hoard]]. In the Japanese version, the treasure always appears correctly. In the US version, the treasure always appears to float above the floor. In the European version, in all areas except the [[Perplexing Pool]], the treasure again appears at ground level, but it lacks a shadow; in the Perplexing Pool, it looks the same as in the US version. All of these differences can also be found in the respective [[New Play Control! Pikmin 2|Wii re-releases]] for each region.
 
The reason for this is because in the US version, something unknown changed in the treasure's geometry, making it appear slightly above its origin point, compared to the Japanese version. The US developers did not realize this, and so the treasure is visually floating in that version. For the European version, this oversight was caught, but instead of correcting the model's data, the developers altered the spawn position of the treasure to be five units below floor level.<ref>The coordinates for each Treasure Hoard area, bar the Perplexing Pool, are 0,-5,0, as seen in <code>/user/Yamashita/zukan/pal/*/arc.szs/data/setting.ini</code>.</ref> While this does visually place the tube on the floor, it also means its shadow doesn't appear, since the object's Y coordinate is technically under the floor, and there is no floor below that to project a shadow onto. The coordinates for the Perplexing Pool have not been changed since it is very hard to even notice the problem, given that the treasure is underwater.

The Decorative Goo (オレの色?, lit.: "My Color") is a treasure found in Pikmin 2 and Pikmin 4. It is a used tube of blue acrylic paint.

In Pikmin 2, the label reads "あおいろ? (lit.: "blue color")" in the Japanese version of Pikmin 2, and "Mario Paint" in the American and European version, referencing the game Mario Paint. In Pikmin 4, the label is more generic with unreadable text, with the word "Blue" in bold alongside a yellow dot. Like other treasures in the Soulful Artist Series, this one is reminiscent of Blue Pikmin. It can be found in a sublevel with water and many water-based enemies, and is likely the first place the player will discover Blue Pikmin.

Notes

Olimar's journal

With the assistance of the blue Pikmin, we found a canister of paint today. I used it to give the ship a fresh coat of paint! But did it thank me? Noooo. As a space pilot, I've always treated my ship like a trusted companion (even if it is a smart aleck). Yet, this snobbish ship has the gall to complain about the color! There's no pleasing it! Forget this...I'm going to bed.

Sales pitch

Everyone enjoys decorating in favorite hues, but it's vital to utilize new colors now and then. This tube of goo will surely help you discover a new you!

Schnauz's notes[edit]

This tube of decorative blue goo is sure to inspire creativity in anyone who comes upon it. It should also be a reminder to welcome new colors into your life now and then. Don't get stuck returning to the same hues over and over again. Go wild! Unleash a new you!

Olimar's notes[edit]

This color is very similar to that of the Blue Pikmin. I prefer red.

Louie's notes[edit]

My whole mouth turned blue after one lick, and some other stuff kept coming out blue for the next few days. Probably won't eat it again, even if it is my favorite color.

Treasure Hoard appearance[edit]

In the European version, in all areas except the Perplexing Pool, the treasure again appears at ground level, but it lacks a shadow; in the Perplexing Pool, it looks the same as in the US version.

For the European version, this oversight was caught, but instead of correcting the model's data, the developers altered the spawn position of the treasure to be five units below floor level.[1] While this does visually place the tube on the floor, it also means its shadow doesn't appear, since the object's Y coordinate is technically under the floor, and there is no floor below that to project a shadow onto. The coordinates for the Perplexing Pool have not been changed since it is very hard to even notice the problem, given that the treasure is underwater.
