The Explorer's Friend Series (探検家の友シリーズ^?, lit.: "Explorer's Friend Series") is the twenty-fourth (twenty-third in the European and Japanese versions) series of the Treasure Hoard in Pikmin 2, consisting of all the treasures that give upgrades when collected. Most of these treasures in the series are collected by defeating bosses, and so, have a dynamic weight.

“You've collected the Explorer's Friend Series. Everyone has friends...except for spaceships.”

Exploration Kit

The Exploration Kit on the pause menu.

Main article: Gear.

Every time an item in this series is retrieved (except for The Key, the collection of which unlocks Challenge Mode), an upgrade is given to the player. The collection of these upgrades is called Exploration Kit by the game.

The list of owned upgrades can be seen on the pause menu, where uncollected upgrades are shown in gray-scale and are titled "Incomplete", and collected ones appear in color and with the upgrade's name.
