The '''Doomsday Apparatus''' is the heaviest and most valuable treasure in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. It is a blue, heavily rusted [[wikipedia:Training Weight|training weight]].
 
==Collecting the treasure==
[[File:Doomsday Apparatus location.png|thumb|left|x165px|Location of the treasure on the radar. Click for a bigger image.]]
This item is found in the [[Wistful Wild]], not too far from the landing site. Due to its weight, 100 [[Purple Pikmin]] are needed to be able to pick up this item; and even then, it takes at least a quarter of a day to carry back to the [[ship]]. While carrying the treasure, it is advised to attack and defeat the [[Gatling Groink]], [[Dwarf Bulborb]]s and [[Decorated Cannon Beetle]] - and, if possible, [[Yellow Wollywog]] and [[Fiery Blowhog]] - in the area, so as to clear the way in advance for exploring the rest of the level.
 
The best place to amass Purples to reach 100 for the Doomsday Apparatus is the [[Subterranean Complex]], as it has three [[Violet Candypop Bud|Violet-]] and two [[Queen Candypop Bud]]s on sublevel 8, along with many [[egg]]s and a [[geyser]].

==Weight==
The label on this object says that the Doomsday Apparatus weighs 1 kilogram. This discovery has lead to a lot of confusion. Although creating a formula from this would allow easy conversion between the in-game weight units and real-world units, the theory breaks down when real-world objects are weighed and compared to the weights predicted. For example, the [[Proton AA]] treasure weighs 6 units, whereas actual AA batteries weigh as much as 25 grams.
