An egg is a white, semi-round object found in alcoves of caves, and on specific places on land. These are the eggs of some insect – an unknown one, however. They can be attacked, and when broken, they release nectar, although they can also release sprays or Mitites. The eggs held by Honeywisps in Pikmin 2 are the same as grounded eggs.
To destroy an egg, it must be attacked with Pikmin, punched at a few times with a leader, or destroyed by an enemy projectile, like a Gatling Groink's fireworks. It is advisable to throw a Purple Pikmin onto an egg, as this will immediately break it and contained Mitites will be instantly defeated. It is also recommended to destroy an egg with a captain, as a Pikmin thrown at the egg may drink the nectar after being called back, wasting it.
Contents
The contents of an egg are picked at random from a list, and they're only chosen on the exact moment the egg breaks, not when the egg is created (i.e. they're not chosen when the area or cave loads). Not every outcome has the same probability of happening, as detailed in the following table [1]:
| Content | Probability |
|---|---|
| A single drop of nectar | 50% |
| Two drops of nectar | 35% |
| An ultra-bitter spray | 5% |
| An ultra-spicy spray | 5% |
| 10 Mitites | 5% |

There are no eggs in the first game, but they can be found in many places in Pikmin 2. Their location in areas is always constant, and they always respawn whenever the area is entered. Underground, there are several sublevels with eggs, some having more than one.
The following is a list of the eggs' locations:
- Valley of Repose
- A group of three, near the landing site.
- Perplexing Pool
- A group of two, between the Beady Long Legs and the original location of the Yellow Onion.
- A group of three, near the entrance to the Glutton's Kitchen.
- Wistful Wild
- A group of three, on the intersection between the two main parts closest to the landing site.
- A group of four, near the Anti-hiccup Fungus.
- A group of three, near the entrance to the Hole of Heroes.
