Based off his interactions with Brittany, he may be rather absentminded. Alph is also very interested in technological devices; on a related note, he is intelligent and a very capable engineer who configures objects found on PNF-404 for the crew to use on their quest for food. In the different regional versions of the game, Alph's personality remains largely intact, barring some particular lines of dialogue. | ||

When the crew first attempts to land on [[PNF-404]], they encounter difficulties and all three members are ejected from the [[S.S. Drake]]. They all crash-land in different areas. Alph happens to fall into the [[Tropical Wilds]], the same area in which the Drake also landed with its auto-pilot. With the help of some local Pikmin, he builds a bridge and is able to reunite with his [[KopPad]] and the Drake. It is then up to him to rescue his coworkers by flying to the other areas with the Drake. Alph also seems a little talkative, as he gives the most Notes at the end of each day.

*According to Brittany's fruit notes, Alph is allergic to the [[Heroine's Tear]] (a mango), and the [[Scaly Custard]] (an avocado).

According to a [[talk]] conversation, Alph is also allergic to some other plants.{{cite quote|Oh, that's kind of you, Captain, but I'm allergic to a lot of plants.|[[Alph]]|a [[Talk/Small talk#Small talk 44|conversation]]}} | *According to Brittany's fruit notes, Alph is allergic to the [[Heroine's Tear]] (a mango), and the [[Scaly Custard]] (an avocado).
