The Positron Generator is a ship part in Pikmin 1 that is found at the Impact Site. It is a green, rounded object with two golden antennae on the top. Olimar mentions he uses this to make "Instant Space Noodles"; considering this and the name, it is possible that this part is used to produce energy.
Collecting the Part
Taking three Yellow Pikmin, go to the box that was pushed out of the way on Day 1. Throw or swarm the Pikmin inside the box to pick up three bomb-rocks; use these to destroy the wall found up the ramp. To make the part get to the S.S. Dolphin faster, knock down the white gate to the left of the shore now, then withdraw 20 Blue Pikmin and attack the Pearly Clamclamp in the water, to the left. Have your 20 Blue Pikmin take the part back to the Dolphin once it is free.

Trivia
- In real life, positrons are antimatter, the antiparticle counterparts of electrons.
- When Olimar retrieves the Positron Generator, he says in his notes that if you approach it you can receive an electric shock. However, neither him nor the Pikmin can be damaged by it in-game.
- The Positron Generator can be seen in the Enemy Reel in the Distant Spring, when showing the Wogpoles.
