The Libra is a ship piece to the S.S. Dolphin; it is featured in Pikmin. It was given to Olimar by his daughter, and is named after the astrological sign. The Libra is just like the Sagittarius except it gave Olimar memories and thoughts about his daughter. The Libra, like its cousin, the Sagittarius, could be some kind of star chart or navigational device.
Collecting the part
Getting it is very complicated, as all Red, Blue, and Yellow Pikmin are needed to retrieve it. First travel to the large lake area, and go along a short pathway to the right. Go through a narrow strip of land occupied with fire geysers. A bridge has to be built to reach the floating island of land, then throw 15 yellows to retrieve it and at least 5 blues to open up a geyser for Olimar to reach the area where they can be thrown. Then switch Pikmin from yellow to red to carry it across the fire. It should be noted that Pikmin get deflowered when carrying the Libra off the ledge. This can be avoided by calling them before they fall or simply looking away by positioning the camera.
Glitch
There is a rather notorious glitch involving the Libra. The part may bounce and fall into the abyss when pulled from the ledge it is postioned on. The part may not reappear in any way on the file (though sometimes it will reappear in a random location). Should this happen to the player on the GameCube version of the game, he or she should reset the game immediately, as the game cannot be completed without this part; however, it can be fixed in the New Play Control! version. Occasionally the part is only almost lost, bouncing toward the abyss but ricochets off the edge of the bridge at the last second instead of falling into oblivion. One shouldn't get their hopes too high about the libra getting saved like this.
Notes
Olimar's monologs
“I've found my Libra!
My daughter gave this to me. It's named after her astrological sign. My sweet little girl... I wonder what she's doing right at this moment...
My daughter gave this to me. My late return must have her very worried...”
Trivia
- Like the Sagittarius the Libra is named after the constellation of the same name.
