The Sunseed Berry is a treasure found in Pikmin 2 and a fruit in Pikmin 3. It is actually a regular strawberry.
How to obtain
In Pikmin 2
The Sunseed Berry is found sitting on a ledge just across from the landing site in Awakening Wood, and can easily be obtained, as it is guarded only by a Red Bulborb and two Dwarf Red Bulborbs. The ledge is low enough that any type of Pikmin can be thrown up to collect the treasure.
In Pikmin 3
The Sunseed Berry is the first fruit to be found by Alph. There are four Sunseed Berries in the game. There are 3 in the Garden of Hope and one in the Distant Tundra.
Garden of Hope
In the Garden of Hope, there are three Sunseed Berries. One is on a ledge next to Brittany's crash site, and can be obtained easily. Another Sunseed Berry is on a ledge by a pile of Fragments used to build an orange bridge; defeat the Skutterchucks nearby, as they may throw crystals at the player's Pikmin. The last Sunseed Berry is underwater, past the large cinderblock after Louie runs away. It is near a Dirt Wall. It is protected by several Puckering Blinnows, which should be defeated so the Pikmin can safely get the fruit.
Distant Tundra
In the Distant Tundra, the only Sunseed Berry is inside a Pyroclasmic Slooch, which is in an enclosed area sealed off by a Crystal Wall. Along the way back there is a Joustmite and a Bearded Amprat; defeat these as well to ensure the Pikmin have a safe route back to the ship.

Brittany's European Notes
"I've never experienced anything like it. Scientifically speaking, the flavour straddles the boundary between scrumptious and delicious, and can only be described as 'scrumplicious'. On the down side, this fruit appears to have a nasty case of pimples."
