The '''[[Hocotate]] Ship''' refers to Olimar's new rocket in [[Pikmin 2]]. Unlike the [[S. S. Dolphin]], the Hocotate ship is capable of speech, (replacing most of [[Olimar]]'s in game speech), and takes on the role of giving advice throughout the game. Olimar makes his opinion of its personality being pompous and quirky known in his [[Olimar's notes|notes]]. Once the [[President|President's]] debt is repaid, the ship is upgraded into a sleeker, golden model. | |||
The | == Capabilities == | ||
The Hocotate ship can store [[Pikmin (species)|Pikmin]], and does so, storing both [[White Pikmin]] and [[Purple Pikmin]]. Unlike the Dolphin, the [[Captain]]s cannot check how many treasures have been collected using it nor can they restore their suit's damage meter. Standing in the green light and pressing A before Purple Pikmin have been found does nothing. The ship has two cockpits, and is capable of deep space communication, sending a report each night to [[Hocotate]] and receiving mail. To do this it must be in orbit around the [[Pikmin Planet]]. The ship can dispatch a [[Research Pod]] for traveling underground. | |||

When | When traveling underground into caves, the Hocotate ship dispatches its nosecone, known as the ''Research Pod'', and sends it with you into the cave. It is used to store any [[Treasure Hoard|treasures]] and [[:category:enemies|enemy]] carcasses to be sold to pay off the debt upon exiting the [[cave]]. In emergency cases, it can empty its cargo, take in Olimar, [[Louie]] and the Pikmin, and return to the surface; should this happen any carcasses and treasures collected are lost. | ||
==Sales Pitch== | |||
When one complete "series" of treasures has been collected, the ship's [[Sales Pitch]]es become available. This is an advertisement for the treasure as if it were a product. | |||

;[[Superstick Textile]]:''The latest must-have item for all ship emergency-repair kits, this miracle fabric is a lifesaver! Its adhesive power is so great, once it's applied, it can never be removed...not even surgically!'' | |||

Super Mario Galaxy has a planetoid shaped very similarly to the the ship located in the "Space Junk Galaxy". It is likewise a red, rusted color. | |||
The ship also appears in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. During the beginning of a match, Olimar enters the stage in the ship and jumps out to pluck three Pikmin. When Olimar uses his Final Smash, "End of Day", he hops in the Ship while [[Bulborb]]s cause damage to his opponents. Olimar then crashes down back on the stage, sometimes further harming his opponents. In the ''Subspace Emissary'', Olimar's ship is seen along with a number of other airborne vehicles in the attempt to enter Subspace as well as the beginning of the level Outside the Ruins. In the ''Great Maze'' section of the Emissary, it appears in the background as part of the level's scenery. If Olimar uses his Final Smash while on top of the Bulborb in the "Distant Planet" stage, the ship steers away from the Bulborb as it falls. The ship also appears as a trophy and a sticker. In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, the trophy names the ship, Hocotate Ship. | |||
