The Pink Menace is a treasure found in the Valley of Repose in Pikmin 2. Make sure to have defeated the Red Bulborb and the Dwarf Bulborb in the area, and drained the lake. Before climbing up the snowy slope, defeat the Burrowing Snagret that bursts out of the ground. The treasure is buried, so White Pikmin are needed to dig it up. The Pink Menace is actually a plastic, gold-colored ring set with a pink heart.

Notes

Olimar's Journal

"I could never say this within earshot of the ship, but years of hard use have taken their toll. For one thing, the thermostat is broken. The temperature in the cockpit can fluctuate wildly between sweltering heat and frigid cold. The humid heat is awful, but the bone-chilling cold is even worse. Looking at this heart-warming gem gives me the strength to endure the elements."

Sales Pitch

"This gem holds the shape of the universal symbol of love, yet its cut and light-refracting abilities make it a menacing super-weapon in disguise! It could be used to create a horrifying, doomsday death ray...or something even worse. We peaceful machines live in eternal fear of the ability of living beings to turn anything into a weapon."

Trivia

  • The sales pitch states that this is a super weapon in disguise. This possibly can be a reference to old spy movies, where these spies could have extremely powerful weapons anywhere on their bodies.
