pikmin 2's "golden ball". all i am about to tell you is a roumor i got from someone who has a relative who is a programmer for nintendo who was assigned the pikmin 2 job.
you are supposed to cover the entire pikmin above ground world with 20 of each kind. you then use the ultra spicy spray on ALL the pikmin. you then travel the world and if you are retartedly lucky a pikmin will find and pluck an invisible grass. it is in a random spot. the grass will pull up a golden ball. the pikmin will then break free of you and carry it back to the ship-site. the pikmin will then throw the ball inbetween the 3 onions. it will drop so hard a cave will open up. if you go in... *dun dun duuuun*... you may never come out.(due to hardness of cave) you will be in a cave of 100 floors and with enemies that if you touch, the game will turn off, and the game disk deletes the golden ball. on floor 99 you face a giant rock-guard and louie will be killed here. THIS MUST BE DONE BEFORE DEBT IS PAID!!! 0n floor 100 you will find a beam of light and a golden flower there. throw in all of your pikmin in this order:red purple white yellow blue. YOU ALSO CAN'T LOOSE A SINGLE PIKMIN HERE!!! then the flower will spit out a golden seed and it MUST be plucked when at flower state. it will take 30 minutes for a gold. then the golden pikmin will use magic to take olimar out of the cave. olimar will fly away forever and you play as the golden pikmin. at the end of the day, the golden pikmin makes a gold onion.
