Concept art of the treasure.
The Spherical Atlas is a treasure in the game Pikmin 2. It is a northern hemisphere of a globe; this being a representation of Earth suggests that the Pikmin planet is Earth. This heavy treasure is found on the last sublevel (2) of the Emergence Cave in the Valley of Repose. It requires at least one Purple Pikmin on it to lift it, as it weighs 101 units, more than 100, the maximum weight 100 weaker Pikmin can carry. This is also the first cave Purple Pikmin are found in, on the same sublevel as the treasure.
When this treasure has been retrieved, the Sphere Chart, part of the Exploration Kit, is unlocked, granting access to the Awakening Wood. This is made possible through the co-ordinates it provides the ship. The Geographic Projection is also a globe half, this time a southern hemisphere; and it too unlocks a new area (Perplexing Pool).
Notes
Olimar's journal
“The purple Pikmin were somehow able to carry this massive treasure. Today, we measured their physical strength using the ship's onboard beefometer. It seems that they have ten times the weight and physical power of any other Pikmin. When I throw them, they land with a resounding thud. I've decided to commemorate the cave I first encountered them in by naming it Emergence Cave.”
Sales pitch
“The surface designs on this item are the map of a savage planet. This alone makes it valuable... But that is not all! Embedded within is a microchip filled with secret, incredibly detailed data. With this item, you'll know everything about this, that, and the other thing, too.”
Trivia
- The globe depicts the world as it appeared before the German Reunification on October 3, 1990 (East Germany can be seen, along with other nations that no longer exist, such as the Soviet Union).
