The Courage Reactor (あいとゆうきリアクター?, lit.: "Love and Courage Reactor") is a battery treasure found in Pikmin 2. In the Switch version it is a fictional "Electric Super Battery", a Duracell D battery in the North American and European GameCube and Wii versions and a National Hi-Top D battery in the Japanese GameCube and Wii versions. It is the first treasure that can be collected in Pikmin 2, and is found partially buried in the Valley of Repose. Upon retrieval, the Hocotate ship is satisfied with the day's work and the first day is completed. While Louie discovers this treasure first, he needs to reunite with Olimar and his Pikmin before it can be lifted and salvaged.

The text on the side contains a paragraph informing the user that the battery cannot be recharged, and that the polarity of the battery should be respected. These instructions are written in Italian, French, German and English, in that order. The full text reads:

Inserire correttamente. Non ricaricare.
Respecter les polarités + et -. Ne pas
recharger. Auf richtige Polarität achten.
Nicht wiederaufladbar. Connect correctly.
Do not recharge. MADE IN EC
DURACELL®
D
ALKALINE 1,5V
MN0000 LR6

Strangely, in the US New Play Control! Pikmin 2 website, the Courage Reactor is shown as a National Hi-Top battery instead of a Duracell battery.[2]

Collecting the treasure

The following article or section contains guides.
The strategies shown are just suggestions.

To retrieve this treasure, both Olimar and Louie are needed: start by gathering all the pellets in the area and the Dwarf Red Bulborb. After obtaining 20 Red Pikmin, have them dig it out of the ground and carry it to the ship.

Notes

Olimar's journal
“We've recovered our first treasure! Amazingly, the Pikmin remembered how to salvage it. I can't understand their adorable language and I don't know what they're thinking, yet I'm so happy to see them. When I crashed on this planet, the Pikmin helped me locate my missing ship parts. In my darkest hour, the Pikmin were there for me. Now that I'm reunited with them, I know everything will be alright. It will, right?”
Sales pitch
“Physical energy is not the only kind! The energy dearest to us is that made by love and courage.”

“どうにか最初のお宝を回収できた！ ピクミンは私のことをしっかり覚えていてくれた。彼らとは言葉も通じない、考えていることもよくわからないが、むしょうにうれしい。前回、この星に遭難して、ピクミンといっしょにバラバラになった宇宙船のパーツを探したことが思い出される。絶望的と思われたあの時も、ピクミンと共に乗り越えた。今度もきっと大丈夫だ。”

“Nous avons récupéré notre premier trésor! C'est incroyable: les Pikmin n'ont pas oublié comment transporter les objets! Je ne comprends pas un mot de leur adorable langage et j'ignore à quoi ils pensent, mais je suis content qu'ils soient là. Lorsque je me suis écrasé sur cette planète, les Pikmin m'ont aidé à retrouver toutes les pièces de mon vaisseau. Alors que j'étais au plus mal, les Pikmin m'ont soutenu. Maintenant qu'ils sont à mes côtés, je sais que tout ira bien. Et j'ai raison... n'est-ce pas?”

Olimar's journal
“Wir haben unseren ersten Schatz gefunden! Erstaunlicherweise konnten sich die Pikmin daran erinnern, wie man ihn birgt. Zwar kann ich ihre bezaubernde Sprache nicht verstehen und ich weiß auch nicht, was in ihren Köpfen vorgeht, aber dennoch bin ich froh, sie zu sehen. Als ich auf diesem Planeten Schiff-bruch erlitt, waren die Pikmin für mich da. Jetzt, da ich wieder mit ihnen vereint bin, wird sich alles zum Guten wenden. So wird es doch sein, oder...?”

Olimar's journal
“Abbiamo preso il primo tesoro! È sorprendente che i Pikmin si siano ricordati la procedura di recupero. Non capisco la loro incantevole lingua e non so cosa pensino ma sono felice di vederli. Quando sono finito su questo pianeta, i Pikmin mi hanno aiutato a trovare i pezzi della navicella che avevo perso. Ero in difficoltà e loro mi hanno assistito. Ora che ci siamo ritrovati, sono certo che andrà tutto bene. Andrà tutto bene, vero?”

“¡Hemos encontrado nuestro primer tesoro! Es sorprendente que los Pikmin recuerden cómo recuperarlo. Yo no entiendo su adorable idioma y no sé qué estarán pensando, pero me ale-gro mucho de verlos. Cuando me estrellé en este planeta, los Pikmin me ayudaron a encontrar las piezas que había perdido mi nave. En los momentos de mayor desesperación, los Pikmin estuvieron a mi lado. Ahora que me he reunido con ellos, sé que todo irá bien. Porque todo irá bien... ¿no?”
