Series
- This article is about treasures. For thePikmin franchise, seePikmin series.
InPikmin 2 andPikmin 4,treasures are grouped intoseries. Each treasure in a series is related to the others in that series in some way. For example, theJoy Receptacle,Danger Chime andSpouse Alert are all in theFrigid Series because they all are found in anicy cavern and sport a Christmas theme.
InPikmin 2[edit]
There are a total of 26 series across the threeversions of the game, though each version has a slightly different selection, and some treasures are in different series in different versions.
Once all the treasures in a series have been collected, the player can enter theTreasure Hoard, and theHocotate ship will announce that that series has been completed (with a different announcement for each series) and will then create asales pitch for each of the treasures in it. This can happen for more than one series at a time. However, if the player enters the Treasure Hoard on a day after they have completed a series, and they have also collected any other treasures in the meantime, the Hocotate ship will not give the announcement. In the Treasure Hoard, each series has its treasures' icons with a blue or green background, with the colors alternating throughout the list.
The following is a list of all treasure series.
