Olimar's wife is a woman who has a blue shirt covered with an apron. She cares about her kids very much, but is usually irresponsible when it comes to money. When Olimar's special bonuses arrive at his house, she often uses the money to buy her kids what they have been wanting.{{cite quote|Olimar, you've worked so hard! Your special bonus arrived today. This is a first, right? I bought the kids a few things they've been wanting. They were so happy! And so was I...|Olimar's wife|a [[mail|letter]]}}{{cite quote|We received yet another special bonus! I've come to love you all anew! I decided to take the kids to the hot springs. We'll have enough fun for you too, so don't worry!|Olimar's wife|a [[mail|letter]]}} However, it seems that money can make the best of her. Whenever the bonuses come in, she seems to get stricter on her kids, and might be lacking in common sense, as Olimar's son states that she wants things like sending Bulbie to the circus.<ref name="circus"/> She admits to sometimes going to beaches and theaters all day until the kids come home.{{cite quote|Hey, hon! I'm on a solo vacation right now. Beach by day, theater at night. Ahhh, life is grand! And don't worry, the kids are in school every night until 10! Wheeeeee!|Olimar's wife|a [[mail|letter]]}}

After losing a large amount of money, she realizes the mistake she made, and loosens back up into her former self. In the original versions of ''Pikmin 2'', this resulted from her wasting money on lottery tickets;{{cite quote|I think I may have messed up, darling... I lost a small fortune buying lottery tickets. It was all a nightmare. I'm afraid we're going to have to live lean for awhile.|Olimar's wife|a [[mail|letter]] in GameCube and Wii versions of {{p2}}}} the Nintendo Switch port alters the mail to say that she was pickpocketed.{{cite quote|I think I messed up, darling... A pickpocket stole a small fortune from me. It's been a nightmare. I'm afraid we're going to have to live lean for awhile.|Olimar's wife|a [[mail|letter]] in {{p2s}}}} In Japanese versions prior to the port, she instead loses all her money at a casino. After time has passed, she pleads for Olimar to come home (very lovingly), promising his favorite meal – [[pikpik carrot]] soup.{{cite quote|I love you! Don't keep me waiting any longer! Please come home! I've made a ton of your favorite soup, and it's here waiting for you!|Olimar's wife|a [[mail|letter]] in {{p2s}}}}

Bulbie is Olimar's family pet space dog.{{cite quote|rname=circus|Papa! Hurry up and come home! Mama is so nuts! Every day, she orders me to study, study, study! She’s even thinking about sending our dog, Bulbie, to the circus! Help!|Olimar's son|a [[Mail|letter]]}} He is briefly mentioned in ''Pikmin'' and ''Hey! Pikmin'', and is described to physically resemble a [[Bulborb]], being the namesake for the creature, as the voyage log he's seen in depicts him with eye-stalks, a wide mouth, three spots, and two legs. He is also described as very lazy, which is sometimes a characteristic of real world dogs.{{cite quote|{{Notes:Dutiful Watchdog/heypikmin}}|Olimar|the [[Hey!

Mom and I completely forgot to feed him. He got skinny, but he's been eating a lot of Pikpik carrots, so he'll be OK.|Olimar's son|a [[Mail|letter]]}} He later eats many pikpik carrots and returns to normal.{{cite quote|Dad! Our dog, Bulbie, has been acting like a pig! He ate all of our carrots! Have you really seen creatures on that planet that look just like Bulbie?!?|Olimar's son|a [[Mail|letter]]}} Olimar's wife also threatens to send Bulbie away to the circus during this time.<ref name="circus"/>

=== Alph's sister ===

Alph mentions how his older sister used to always share food with him even when it was scarce.{{cite quote|I miss my big sister, especially. She always shared her food with me, even when it was scarce.|[[Alph]]|his [[Pikmin 3 voyage log|voyage log]]}} Other than that, not much is known about her.

 

Alph also has twelve older brothers and one younger brother, making Alph the 14th oldest sibling, though Alph doesn't talk much about them. However, in other languages, Alph is instead said to be the 13th oldest, and the gender of his siblings, other than his younger brother and older sister, is not mentioned. It is implied that [[Yorke]] from {{p4}} is Alph's oldest sibling.

[[Brittany]] also has only one known member of her family &ndash; Auntie Bea. According to the Japanese [[Pikmin Garden]] website, Brittany is an only child. However, [[Nelle]] is implied to be a relative of hers.  

Brittany's Auntie Bea treated Brittany with lots of love, giving her sweets and such, and Brittany likes her because of it.{{cite quote|The taste reminds me of the sweets Auntie Bea gave me as a child. The big, greedy stone doesn't leave much room for juice, but maybe someday it will grow into a tree in Auntie Bea's back garden and I can repay her kindness. She was so sweet to me. |[[Brittany]]|her [[Brittany's notes|notes]] about the [[Velvety Dreamdrop]]}} She is known for her famous fruit pastries on Koppai.{{cite quote|The taste of this one takes me back to Auntie Bea's famous fruit pastries.|[[Brittany]]|her [[Brittany's notes|notes]] about the [[Velvety Dreamdrop]]}} Auntie Bea's hair is dyed a similar color to the [[Dusk Pustules]], and in Brittany's notes on the same fruit, she states that to be a "rebellious streak", implying most Koppaites don't have that color of hair naturally.{{cite quote|The color reminds of something... Oh! Auntie Bea's hair! She has such a rebellious streak...|[[Brittany]]|her [[Brittany's notes|notes]] about the [[Dusk Pustules]]}}{{cite quote|Auntie... I hope you're able to color your hair on your own.|Brittany|a [[check-in]] conversation}} Auntie Bea's nose is similar in shape to the [[Tremendous Sniffer]], and she is the envy of the family because of her nose.{{cite quote|This specimen has a sweet flavor and a soft texture...kind of like my Auntie Bea. The shape reminds me of her nose, too. So elegant! So glamorous! She's the envy of the family with that nose...|[[Brittany]]|her [[Brittany's notes|notes]] about the [[Tremendous Sniffer]]}} However, in languages other than English, Brittany does not mention a nose. Instead, she describes her aunt's elegant appearance, and expresses wanting to be like her. Brittany's aunt goes unnamed outside of the English and NOA French versions.

Osa is a research task force recruit, specializing in archaeology. His name alludes to the {{w|Tosa (dog)|Tosa Inu}}. He is from the planet [[Siguray]]. Osa is another member of [[Chet]]'s crew, getting into archeology because "archeology is FUN!" he says that the player character reminds him of [[Kit]] being impressed by what you do.

Kit is a research task force recruit that's studying raw materials. His name alludes to the {{w|Akita (dog)|Akita Inu}}. He is from the planet [[Siguray]].

Kit is another member of [[Chet]]'s team. He is [[Osa]]'s junior and it is thanks to him that Kit became part of the task force. Kit is a lot more slow and methodical compared to Osa, however he admires Osa's energy. Kit has put some research into ores and minerals on [[PNF-404]] as well as [[raw material]], he had figured out that raw material is not a mineral but instead a "highly pure conglomeration of fossilized creature remains" something that has not been observed elsewhere in the universe leading Kit to believe that either it's a process that happens only on PNF-404 or through a "unknown life-fourm". Kit is very interested in minerals in one quote saying "The resources I've found on this planet are exceptional! Did you know that the purity of the minerals in the ground here is..." he cuts off before apologizing for rambling, his favorite mineral is iron and talks about oxidation. Kit claims that when he found a "beautiful ore that shimmers in all the colors of the rainbow" on PNF-404 and "it cracked when I fell to the surface" the ore may be referencing bismuth a colorful and brittle ore, this message also implies that the research crew landed on PNF-404 without issue but as they were taking off they crashed due to the fact that Kit found bismuth "here" and it cracked as he "fell to the surface".
