The Endless Repository (つきぬコンテナ^?, lit.: "Inexhaustible Container") is a treasure found in Pikmin 2, but a different object depending on the region. It is actually a tin of Beach Cliff sardines in the US version (the European name for this object is Perfect Container) and a can of Maruha Nichiro baby clams in the Europe and Japanese versions.

In the US version, it is found in the fifth sublevel of the Shower Room, probably on a ledge or an alcove. Two types of Blowhogs as well as Dwarf Orange Bulborbs will get in the way as the Pikmin are carrying it.

If this item is located inside the water vent, it's very likely that it will get stuck while the Pikmin are carrying it. If it does, it is very difficult to get it out; it may take a lot of repositioning of the Blue Pikmin carrying it. If it takes too long to free, it's best to just reset the console and hope that the treasure is located elsewhere on the next run.

In the European and Japanese versions, this treasure can be found inside one of the Orange Bulborbs in sublevel 12 of the Dream Den.

On the surface of the US version of this treasure, it reads:

Notes

Olimar's journal

“Everyone makes mistakes. Sometimes desire overpowers reason. At least, that's what I told myself when I sampled this salty snack.”

Sales pitch

“No matter how much you eat, this magic container is never empty. So, go ahead and have a bite! (Captain Olimar and his crony used this excuse. They later issued a written apology.)”

Trivia

Earlier location for the treasure.

• A screenshot from an earlier version of the game shows that the European and Japanese design of the Endless Repository was originally going to be located on sublevel 3 of the White Flower Garden, and not on sublevel 12 of the Dream Den.
