Pikmin 251/Treasure Hoard

The Treasure Hoard of Pikmin 251 features twenty-five series serving as collections for treasures. Olimar's loss of authority in the main story has led Louie and the ship to handle all writing regarding the treasure hoard. Naming and observation logs are handled by the Hocotate ship. Their writing often has them lamenting about how lonely they are when they are not simply describing the treasure outright. Louie, on the other hand, organizes the series and writes sales pitches that primarily relate the subject to food or dining. While these are meant to mislead customers and trick them into buying something they otherwise wouldn't, Louie is shown to be philosophical and down-to-earth in some of his pitches.

Treasures in Pikmin 251 are presented in a traditional fashion similar to how they are in : life-sized objects which must be taken to the ship for appraisal. However, this game introduces several new treasures which reference other video games, among many new realistic, life-sized objects.
