The Secret Safe is a ship part of the S.S. Dolphin in Pikmin and the Olimar's Shipwreck Tale mode of Pikmin 4. Although it is classified as a ship part, the Secret Safe is a large piggy bank where Olimar stores all of his Pokos, and it does not affect how the S.S. Dolphin functions.
Mainline appearances[]
Pikmin[]
The Secret Safe, after being released from Emperor Bulblax.
The Secret Safe is one of the five optional ship parts in Pikmin and the final obtainable one in general. It is located in The Final Trial, where it is contained inside of the Emperor Bulblax.
To obtain the Secret Safe, the Pikmin must start out by building the bridge with eighty Blue Pikmin and six Yellow Pikmin. Once the latter type has Bomb Rocks, Olimar must throw them back the same way. The Yellow Pikmin must take the Bomb Rocks across the newly-created bridge and destroy the brick wall. Olimar must set aside any Pikmin still holding Bomb Rocks and use both the Yellow and Blue Pikmin to begin constructing the second bridge. Olimar must take out ten Red Pikmin and throw them onto the Fire Geyser ledge to the left. After this, Olimar must move into the water on the right side of the ledge, whistle at the Red Pikmin, and lead them down to where a box is blocking the path. The Red Pikmin must push the box while the Blue and Yellow Pikmin continue building the bridge. Once the box is moved and the bridge is built, the Pikmin must take down the wooden gate, preferably with a single Bomb Rock.
Fortunately for Olimar, none of his Pokos were lost from the Secret Safe upon discovering it. At least forty Pikmin are required to carry the Secret Safe. In the Japanese version, more than twice the number of Pikmin are required to carry the Secret Safe, 85 Pikmin, making it the heaviest ship part in said version. In releases outside of Japan, the Secret Safe is tied with the Anti-Dioxin Filter for being the second heaviest part, with the Gluon Drive being the heaviest. In all releases, the Secret Safe can have the largest number of Pikmin carrying it at once, 95.
Pikmin 4[]
In the Olimar's Shipwreck Tale mode of Pikmin 4, the Secret Safe is located in Serene Shores, where it is inside of the stomach of a Sovereign Bulblax, which is on top of a sand castle. In order to retrieve the Secret Safe, Olimar and the Pikmin have to defeat the Sovereign Bulblax first.
Notes[]
Discovery Notes[]
"At long last...
I've found the final part...my Secret Safe! And it's as full as ever! How glad I am that I've persisted in my search without losing hope... Now I can leave this planet without any regrets. Maybe I'll even stop and pick up some souvenirs for my wife and kids back on Planet Hocotate!"
Ship Log[]
"At last I have found it-my most prized possession! I am so relieved... It's as heavy as ever!"
Trivia[]
- In Pikmin 2, Olimar gets an email from his wife saying that she has found his secret stash, and is taking the kids on vacation which implies that the good ending of Pikmin is the canon ending.
