+'''Ultra-Bitter Spray''' is the purple colored [[spray]] that the player can get from ten purple [[Burgeoning Spiderwort]] berries, or by finding a [[Spray#Spray drop|concentrated dose]]. When used, it turns any nearby [[enemy]] into stone, rendering them unable to attack. In [[2-Player Battle]], this spray can also be used to disarm the opponent's Pikmin by planting them in the ground, and reverting all flower and bud Pikmin to leaves. Although the Pikmin will automatically jump back out of the ground after ten seconds, they will not regain their buds or flowers.

+There are less Ultra-Bitter berry carrying Burgeoning Spiderworts, which makes the spray rarer to obtain in comparison to [[ultra-spicy spray]]s. In addition, this spray is also normally only discovered after the spicy one. Unlike the [[Ultra-Bitter Spray]], this spray type does not return in ''[[Pikmin 3]]''.

-This spray can be deployed by pressing {{button|gcn|Padup|wii|1}}. Any [[enemy]] in front of the captain turns into stone, and with that becomes immobilized. When an enemy is defeated during petrification, it will crumble to dust and leave behind one dosage of a liquid, this being either [[nectar]] or a [[spray]]. [[Enemy#Boss|Bosses]], however, will drop five doses of liquid. The [[Titan Dweevil]] will drop ten doses. The perceived chances of a single drop being nectar or a spray are as follows: <ref>These values are obtained from a [[Talk:{{PAGENAME}}#Probabilities|fan-driven experiment]], rounded to what are the most likely real values.</ref>

-Any regular enemy that becomes petrified will have its defense decreased, however, any petrified boss will have its defense increased. Plants and [[Candypop Bud]]s cannot be petrified at all. Petrifying enemies that are in the process of eating any [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] will make it possible to save those Pikmin from dying.

-==Obtaining==
-[[Image:Pikmin 2 Spray Screen.jpg|right|thumb|The [[Menu#Pause|pause menu]] item for the spray and berry count.]]
-The main method to obtain an Ultra-Bitter Spray is to collect ten Ultra-Bitter berries, which can be retrieved from [[Burgeoning Spiderwort]]s. Alternately, concentrated doses of the spray can be found in blobs. These doses may be found by destroying [[egg]]s, fighting [[Doodlebug]]s, killing the [[Ujadani|insects at the Wistful Wild]], killing purple [[Unmarked Spectralid]]s, and defeating any petrified enemy.
-The concentrated drops will only appear after the spray has been concocted from the berries at least once. Once the first berry is delivered to [[Hocotate ship|the ship]], it will announce its properties and request another specimen. After delivering nine more, the first spray is created.
-There are less Ultra-Bitter berry carrying Burgeoning Spiderworts, which makes the spray rarer to obtain in comparison to [[ultra-spicy spray]]s. In addition, this spray is also normally only discovered after the spicy one.
+If there are no enemies nearby, the leader will still spray it in the air, wasting one dosage. In the [[Piklopedia]], the player can deploy Ultra-Bitter Spray by pressing {{button|gcn|Z|wii|1}}. This does not affect the Ultra-Bitter Spray quantity in the main story mode.

-*For each enemy, there is a multiplier setting for how long the petrification should last, but it makes no difference, as all enemies have this value set to 1.0.
