In Pikmin: The After Years, Zero Two is the commander of Dark Virus's army, the second-in-command to Dark Virus, and the penultimate boss of the game. Zero Two is an incomprehensibly evil and negative entity which seeks to rid the world of all positive feelings. Zero Two appears visibly identical to its appearance in Kirby 64, having a large white egg-shaped central body, with a halo, a pair of wings which are dark red at the tips, and a dark red eye. It also has a bandage under its halo and a spike on its underside, which transforms into a spiky green protrusion when its halo is removed. 0² releases blood when its eye is hit, though this does not actually damage the boss. Its halo and wings, together with the bandage, may suggest that 0² is a reincarnation or angelic form of Zero, the final boss of Kirby's Dream Land 3.
Zero Two is one of the central masterminds of Dark Virus's attack on the universe, along with Dark Virus itself and Zero Two's "Three Forces", which are Bloodbath, the Dark Matter Warrior, and the Smoky Progg. As such, Zero Two is one of the main antagonists of Pikmin: The After Years, second only to Dark Virus.
Both Zero Two and Dark Virus are mentioned throughout the game, but only make their on-screen appearance in the depths of the Galactic Warpzone, once all dark matter-infused bosses and other past dark matter entities have been defeated. Despite Zero Two's plot significance, an offical description of the boss's appearance was never written by Gamefreak75, and as such no canon depiction of the fight against Zero Two was ever created.
When Zero Two is defeated by Olimar and the Pikmin, it explodes into dark matter and fades away, and the entrance to the final rest sublevel and then climactic showdown with Dark Virus is revealed.
