- This article is about the silver ring with a square blue bauble. For the golden ring, see Frosty Bauble.
The Universal Com (ねぼけまなこモニター?, lit.: "Unconscious Monitor") is a treasure in Pikmin 2. It is found on the twelfth sublevel of the Dream Den, completely buried in the ground. Falling rocks, poison emitters, dangerous enemies, and an Antenna Beetle will make retrieving this treasure difficult, so clear the level before looking for it. White Pikmin are needed to get this treasure. This item is actually a shiny blue bead mounted on a silver-colored ring.
Notes
Olimar's journal
Sales pitch
Sales pitch (Nintendo Switch)[edit]
“This communications monitor was found on an uncivilized planet! Sadly, it is broken and does not work. As such, its purpose cannot be confirmed. Yet that only heightens its irresistible appeal. Reality...or misperception? Either way, you should buy it.”

Trivia[edit]
- Louie is missing during the venture into the Dream Den, so if the player leaves using the geyser on floor 14 without getting Louie, he would not be present to comment on Olimar's analysis of this treasure, as it says in Olimar's journal entry. This may be an oversight.
- It is also possible that at one point in the game's development, this treasure was found in a different location, outside of the Wistful Wild.
