'''Captain Olimar''' ({{j|キャプテン・オリマー|Kyaputen Orimā}}), also referred to as | '''Captain Olimar''' ({{j|キャプテン・オリマー|Kyaputen Orimā}}), also referred to as just '''Olimar''', is the main protagonist of the [[Pikmin series|''Pikmin'' series]], although only the main character in the first two games. He discovered [[PNF-404]] and all types of [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] so far. He works at [[Hocotate Freight]] and, in the [[Pikmin (game)|first ''Pikmin'' game]], owns and captains his ship, the [[S.S. Dolphin]]. | ||
Olimar has a [[Minor characters#Olimar's family|family]] on [[Hocotate]], his home planet, and the currently known main members include his [[Minor characters#Olimar's wife|wife]], [[Minor characters#Olimar's son|son]], [[Minor characters#Olimar's daughter|daughter]] and his [[Minor characters#Bulbie|dog]]. In-game, [[Olimar's monologues in Pikmin|Olimar monologues some notes]] in ''Pikmin''; in the second game, they are replaced by [[Hocotate ship|the ship]]'s notes. | |||
==Personality and appearance== | ==Personality and appearance== | ||
Olimar has three short brown tufts of hair and wears a | Physically, Olimar has three short brown tufts of hair and wears a beige spacesuit, decorated with red lines and red gloves. He measures 1.9cm tall, 3.9cm tall with his space suit on, from the feet to the top of the antenna. | ||
He is quite intellectual, judging from his writings, and has an interest in science and presumably biology, taking [[Olimar's notes|notes]] and commenting on every [[treasure]] and [[enemy]] he discovers. In addition, he might also have a knack for engineering, as he was once a mechanic and the one who designed the [[Bowsprit]]. | |||
He loves his family, but they often ask a lot of him when it comes to financial matters. This is one of the reasons he enjoys time to himself. Normally, Olimar is a calm and caring individual, and was not portrayed as overly greedy in ''[[Pikmin 2]]'', but his [[Olimar's Log (Exploration Notes)|journal entries]] in US [[Region|version]] of ''[[Pikmin 3]]'' reveal that he has developed a fixating interest in treasure. | |||
According to his journal entry on the [[Impenetrable Cookie]], | According to his journal entry on the [[Impenetrable Cookie]], he has a short temper towards incidents of little importance. He also mentions that he has always "had a way with animals", which can be seen with his fairly extensive Piklopedia journal entries on the various creatures on the planet. According to his entries on the [[Paradoxical Enigma]] and [[Harmonic Synthesizer]], he also considers himself a refined patron of the arts. | ||
==Traits and abilities== | |||
*Olimar is able to control Pikmin, using his [[whistle]] as a means of command. The Pikmin quite possibly see him as a leader and a hero. | |||
*He can [[pluck]] or pull out Pikmin sprouts. | |||
*Olimar can launch a [[punch]] attack to weaken enemies (or a three punch combo after obtaining the [[Rocket Fist]]). | |||

While on an interstellar vacation from [[Hocotate]], Captain Olimar's ship, the [[S.S. Dolphin]], | While on an interstellar vacation from [[Hocotate]], Captain Olimar's ship, the [[S.S. Dolphin]], collided with a meteor, causing it to fall and start to burn as it was crashing down to an [[PNF-404|unknown planet]]. | ||
The Dolphin lost 30 [[Ship part|pieces]], and the accident rendered Olimar unconscious. When he regained consciousness, he found the planet's atmosphere contained high amounts of oxygen, which is extremely poisonous to his species. Fortunately, Olimar landed next to the still barely functioning skeletal hull of the Dolphin. While wandering around an area he called [[The Impact Site]], Olimar met odd creatures that he called [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] at what could be considered their nest, an [[Onion]]. Both Pikmin and the Onions are named after famous foods Olimar often ate on [[Hocotate]]. | |||
These [[Red Pikmin]] that he discovered were able to reproduce more Pikmin with Olimar's help. Olimar directed them to carry his ship's [[Main Engine]] back to The Dolphin's remains, which auto-repaired itself with the parts that Olimar and the Pikmin brought. This allowed the S.S. Dolphin at least lift off for the night and avoid the hostile nocturnal creatures that reside on PNF-404. | |||
As he was looking for more parts, he discovered additional Pikmin types, including [[Yellow Pikmin]] and [[Blue Pikmin]] in two different areas. Luckily for Olimar, he was able to find and recover all of the ship parts on the planet and restore his ship's damage. Before he left, he took a bottle cap from the planet as a souvenir and took notes on the wildlife. | |||

After arriving at [[Hocotate Freight]], he met up with [[the President]] and a new employee named [[Louie]]. After landing his ship, he learned that the company was in debt, having to pay at least {{pokos|10,100}} for the loss of a [[golden Pikpik carrot]] shipment. Learning that the Dolphin was sold to help pay the debt, Olimar was so shocked he dropped the souvenir for his son. As the bottle cap rolled past Louie, an [[Hocotate ship|old ship]] was able to suck up the rusty bottle cap. Its pod analyzed the piece of salvage to be worth {{pokos|100}}, which lowered the debt to {{pokos|10,000}}. The President commanded Olimar and Louie to return to the Pikmin Planet and collect more [[treasure]] as a result. | ||

As Olimar and Louie were heading to the [[Valley of Repose]], the ship collided with a tree branch, and the resulting impact jolted Louie out of the cockpit, leaving Olimar to search for him.

Before, Louie had discovered a treasure, and with the help of Olimar, they were able to forage it. They then discovered a series of [[cave]]s, [[area]]s and new [[Pikmin family|Pikmin types]]. | ||
In the end, Olimar and Louie were able to pay the debt. Olimar blasted off the planet, but noticed that he somehow left Louie behind, but at too late a time to go back and rescue Louie immediately. | |||

Olimar then told the President that there was more treasure on the planet. The President, looking to increase Hocotate Freight's fortune, then decided to send Olimar and Louie back to the planet. Only then did he realize that Louie was missing. The President decided that he would join Olimar to search for Louie and to make their company even wealthier.

In ''Pikmin 3'', Olimar's unseen voyage is explained through [[Data File]]s the player can find throughout the game, as well as the [[Secret Files]]. | |||
Due to to the [[President]]'s excessive spending and failure of a new business venture, Olimar is sent back to [[PNF-404]] with Louie in search of even more treasure to buy back the [[S.S. Dolphin]] and repay Hocotate Freight's newly acquired second debt. However, the [[Hocotate ship]] lands near a massive creature known as a [[Quaggled Mireclops]], which destroys it, leaving Olimar and Louie stranded. As they explore the planet, they inadvertently pick up the Koppaites' [[cosmic drive key]]. | |||
Olimar | After a while, Olimar starts to enjoy the search for treasure, and even becomes tempted by it. He at one point writes in his diary that he is sick of the President getting everything, and how easy it would be to take just one piece of gold. Olimar eventually discovers the Formidable Oak, seeing something glittering at the top of it. Thinking it must be valuable gold, he climbs to the top, only to find it is actually a living creature, the [[Plasm Wraith]]. The creature eventually obsesses over Olimar, preventing him from leaving, yet doesn't harm him. Because of the wraith, each time Olimar attempts to escape, his [[Spacesuit|suit]]'s auto-sleep feature prevents him from going through with it. | ||
With the help of Louie, [[Alph]], [[Brittany]], and [[Charlie]] are able to locate Olimar and subdue the Plasm Wraith just long enough for them to take off with Olimar. | |||

As with most other characters in ''Smash'', Olimar's design has multiple details not seen in the original games.

Olimar's Final Smash is called End of Day, during which he leaves the arena via his spaceship as [[Day#Sunset|night]] falls. The players left behind are attacked by feeding Bulborbs, and can be further damaged when Olimar's ship returns and explodes on impact. Although Olimar's Pikmin are left behind too, they go unharmed. | |||

It should also be noted that the model used in the in-game cutscene only contains a head. | ||
Why the Onion transforms him instead of turning him into true Pikmin seeds is unknown. However, it is worth noting that the Pikmin silently watch as he is spat out and cheer as he begins to grow, indicating that they expected the transformation to occur. In-game, when Pikmin [[Lie down|carry Olimar]] to their Onion, he is not affected in any way and merely bounces off the alien mother-ship. As such, the process may be controlled by the Pikmin themselves. | |||
