The Merciless Extractor (搾取者の台座^?, lit.: "Exploiter's Pedestal") is a treasure in Pikmin 2 and is actually a manual fruit juicer. In the US version, it is found in one of the corners of the first sublevel of the Shower Room, and the European version places it on sublevel 5. There may be electric wires, falling boulders, Wollywogs, and Watery Blowhogs protecting the treasure. This treasure is absent from the Japanese version.

Collecting the treasure

The Merciless Extractor is behind a corner near the top left of Sublevel 1 of the Doppelgänger's Den in the Hero's Hideaway. It is near a neutral bubble hazard, which should be destroyed before attempting to transport it. To collect this treasure, you must throw 7 Pikmin at it.

Notes

Olimar's journal

“When I look at the president, I can't see myself climbing the corporate ladder. To be a manager, you've got to be an inhuman, heartless villain. This trait allows them to flog their dedicated workers without mercy and still sleep at night. I feel that same merciless cruelty radiating from this metallic altar. I wonder if it was once used for dark, unspeakable ceremonies. Or perhaps it was once the desk of a corporate boss. We'll never know...”

Sales pitch

“Squeeze. Squeeze! Had enough? SQUEEEEEZE! A ruthless, savage heart in machine form! No giant fruit can retain its juice in the face of this relentless wringing device. If you are greedy down to the last drop, this is for you!”
