Treasure Hoard Entry #11
Unknown Merit
Treasure Value: 100 Pokos
“Detailed analysis has revealed that this artifact is extremely ancient. It’s obviously an important archeological discovery, but the salesman in me is more interested in its monetary value! Maybe I’ll get the best of both worlds by selling it to a museum.”

Crystal King
Treasure Value: 110 Pokos
“At first glance, this may look like just a pebble, but it’s actually a crystallized life-form! …OK, so I don’t have any proof. But it’s still an exciting scientific discovery.”
Treasure Hoard Entry #9
Olimarnite Shell
Treasure Value: 40 Pokos
“This fossil was dug up deep underneath the Awakening Wood. Given its shape and morphology, I suspect that it is some kind of prehistoric sea creature. If so, it’s feasible to say that the whole region was once situated on the ocean floor.”
Treasure Hoard Entry #8
Colossal Fossil
Treasure Value: 140 Pokos
“This must be the fossilized remains of an enormous land-dwelling creature. I was unable to piece together the entire beast, but it certainly had a massive head! It’s obviously quite different from the Pikmin and other creatures I’ve encountered. Perhaps it’s an extinct creature that couldn’t adept to changes in its environment.”
Treasure Hoard Entry #7
Fossilized Ursidae
Treasure Value: 160 Pokos
“This dead beast has the form of an animal, yet it is encased in an organic compound. I have concluded that it is a groundbreaking biological discovery. The ship says it’s nothing more than a wooden statue. I wish it had more of an imagination. No… Then it would probably talk even more than it does now. That would be bad.”
Treasure Hoard Entry #6
Anxious Sprout
Treasure Value: 50 Pokos
“I just realized I completely forgot to put something in my latest expedition report. When carrying fallen creatures of pellets, Pikmin will take them to the Onion of their same color. If a mixed crew of Pikmin are carrying spoils, the color majority dictates the destination. Carrying pellets to same-colored Onions to maximize Pikmin seed production.”
Treasure Hoard Entry #5
Toxic Toadstool
Treasure Value: 30 Pokos
“This dubious morsel doesn’t look like it would be very agreeable with my innards. However, I bet Louie would try a bite. His appetite is insatiable…and he’s always cooking up tasty meals! I’m glad that on this expedition, our ship’s reactor can power our life-support systems indefinitely. This will give us all the time we need to thoroughly examine all of the treasure we recover. I don’t care if the president wants us to hurry. I’ve had enough of his hassling! I think I’ll move more slowly just to cause him indigestion.”
Treasure Hoard Entry #4
Pilgrim Bulb
Treasure Value: 55 Pokos
“Grassy plains and meadows on this planet are carpeted with brilliantly colored flowers in bloom. When I entered the atmosphere on my descent from space, I was stunned by the vibrant sight. The other day, a group of white Pikmin under command detected an object buried under the surface and immediately began to dig up this colossal flower bulb. Somehow, it hadn’t yet sprouted into a towering flower. I plan to take it back to Hocotate and grow it there! My people will hail me as a botanical genius… and the mayor may even make me Supreme Flower Commander!”

Spiny Alien Treat
Treasure Value: 50 Pokos
“The Valley of Repose is blanketed with a layer of snow. Despite this, here and there plants are sprouting out of the snow. I don’t know how much longer the snow will last… It seems like it’s getting warmer each day. I wish our frosty financial predicament would warm up a bit.”
Treasure Hoard Entry #2
Citrus Lump
Treasure Value: 180 Pokos
“This fruit was dug up from the floor of an icy cavern. It appears that the fruit’s thick skin protected it from the frigid cold… It’s quite remarkable. The shape of the fruit eerily resembles the president’s head.
“PS: The labyrinthine underground entrails of this planet are like a completely different world.”
