The Flame of Tomorrow (希望の火?, lit.: "Fire of Hope") is a treasure in Pikmin 2. It is actually a container of "Bowser Breath" brand matches (referring to Bowser and his fire breath, Bowser being the main antagonist of Nintendo's Mario series), which roll around when the box is moved. In Japan, the brand is called "Sun Breath" instead. One side of this box states "TEL 555-TROOPAS". It is found on the fourth sublevel of the Citadel of Spiders and tied with several treasures for the least amount of Pokos it's worth.

Trivia
- "TEL 555-TROOPAS" is equivalent to "555-876-6727" and is not a real, existing phone number; the telephone number prefix "555" is intended only for directory assistance in the United States and for this reason, it has been used for fake phone numbers in media.
- In Japan, the phone number is instead 090-1234-5678 and acts as a phone number for the Sun Breath company.
- Olimar's notes here suggest the Eternal Fuel Dynamo may not be as inexhaustible an energy source as the name implies.
