The Coiled Launcher (サイコジャンパー?, lit.: "Psycho Jumper") is a treasure in Pikmin 2. It is a rusted coil spring, and is found on sublevel 3 of the Subterranean Complex.

Collecting the treasure

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

The Coiled Launcher is one of 3 treasures in the Subterranean Complex's third sublevel, where fire geysers and a few Armored Cannon Beetle Larvae are the only hazards. If all the enemies are near each other, use a leader to lure them into destroying each other with their rocks; if not, throw Pikmin on carefully, making sure the enemies are facing away from any edges. The Coiled Launcher is located at a random location in the sublevel.

Notes

Olimar's journal

I tried flying this thing once, but it moved too rapidly and I contracted vertigo. Maybe it could be used as an amusement ride. The youngins would love it! However, I don't think I'll ever ride it again...

Sales pitch

Just an ordinary spring? Hardly! This is a high-speed thrill ride tested by one of our employees! Jump aboard for a ride so fast, it'll make you see other worlds!

Olimar's journal (Japanese)

  • Text: 一度これに乗って飛んでみたが、あまりのスピードにめまいがした。もしかしてアトラクションに使えるかもしれない。きっと若者受けするに違いない。しかし私は絶対に乗らないが。
  • Translation: I tried jumping in it once and the sheer speed made me dizzy. Perhaps it could be used as an attraction. It would surely be popular among young people. But there is no way I would ever ride it.

Sales pitch (Japanese)

  • Text: ただのバネに見えますが、実は当社の社員が実体験ずみのハイスピード・アトラクションです。これに乗って飛べば、あまりのスピードに別の世界が見えてきます。
  • Translation: It may look like a mere spring, but it is actually a high-speed attraction experienced firsthand by our employee. If you jump in it, the sheer speed will make you see a different world.
