#1 Ionium Jet}
Artwork of the Ionium Jets, either #1 or #2.
This ship part is required for the S.S. Dolphin to escape the planet.
Weight 15
Max. carriers 25 Pikmin
Location The Forest Navel

The #1 Ionium Jet is a ship part in Pikmin. This is obviously a jet that the Dolphin needs to propel itself through deep space. Olimar is worried that it is damaged and notes to run a system check as soon as he can.

Collecting the part

 
The #1 Ionium Jet, siting in the sand.

Take at least 15 Blue Pikmin and go south from the landing site, there will be a pool of water. Face to the right and go down the cliff with the pipe with Bomb-rocks inside of it and look to the right, it will be sitting in the water. Proceed to carry it back to the ship.

Notes

Olimar's monologs

I've found my #1 Ionium Jet!

Unfortunately, this puts out a slightly odoriferous exhaust, but it does propel me to escape velocity in an instant. The stench is a small price to pay for such performance!


If this is damaged, I'll be in dire straits. I will have to run a system check as soon as I can.

Trivia

  • In real life, ionium is a radioactive isotope of Thorium, with a mass number of 230.
