The Toxic Toadstool (メニドクキノコ^?, lit.: "Poisonous for Eyes Mushroom") is a treasure in Pikmin 2, a mushroom that apparently is toxic, prior to Olimar and company's analysis of this fungus. It is found on sublevel 4 of the White Flower Garden and is partially buried, or sometimes, on a ledge. It is most likely a Russula subrubens, a type of poisonous mushroom.

Notes

Olimar's journal

“This dubious morsel doesn't look like it would be very agreeable with my innards. However, I bet Louie would try a bite. His appetite is insatiable...and he's always cooking up tasty meals! I'm glad that on this expedition, our ship's reactor can power our life-support systems indefinitely. This will give us all the time we need to thoroughly examine all of the treasure we recover. I don't care if the president wants us to hurry. I've had enough of his hassling! I think I'll move more slowly just to cause him indigestion.”

Sales pitch

“This poisonous mushroom is so malicious, I cannot even bear to look at it! This fatal fungus overflows with venom and is perilous indeed...”
