Editing Pikmin 3 voyage log

Every log entry is signed by the writer at the end. Below is a transcript of all voyage logs, as taken from the game's files. As such, the requirements needed and the writers for some of these are not known, and are merely speculative according to the entry's text. Underscores ("_") represent a variable number, like the number of [[fruit]] types gathered.

Only the latest possible entry is chosen for each day, as sorted in this list. For instance, if the leaders saw the Armored Mawdad, but also defeated it in the same day, the entry log will be for defeating it.

*'''US text''': {{transcript|{{color|PNF-404|orange}}, here we come! The SPERO's data indicates unlimited food resources! I can't wait to see the look on everyone's face when we bring unlimited food {{color|back to Koppai|orange}}! Wow! My first trip to another planet, and I'll be saving my home, too! My whole body is shaking with excitement... or space sickness; not sure which. Either way, I have a landing to prepare for!}}

I can't wait to see the look on everyone's faces when we bring unlimited food {{color|back to Koppai|orange}}! Wow! My first trip to another planet and I'll be saving my home, too! My whole body is shaking with excitement...or space sickness. I'm not sure which it is. Either way, I have a landing to prepare for!}}

===Day 1===

*'''US text''': {{transcript|We're shipwrecked on this planet! Some creatures called {{color|Pikmin|orange}} helped me find the S.S. Drake, but our {{color|cosmic-drive key |orange}}is nowhere to be found! We won't be going anywhere without that... Luckily, I made contact with Brittany and will set out to find her tomorrow. When I took off in the ship, the Onion took flight as well. Odd...but amazing!}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|Here we are, shipwrecked! Now we'll never get all of the planet's food! I made it back to the SS Drake with the help of some strange creatures called {{color|Pikmin|orange}}, but the {{color|cosmic drive key |orange}}was nowhere to be found! Luckily, I was able to contact Brittany and will head out to meet up with her tomorrow. When I took off in the ship, the Pikmin's Onion followed along. Odd...but amazing!}}

===No sign of Brittany===

*'''Character''': Alph

*'''US text''': {{transcript|I wasn't able to locate Brittany, so the {{color|search for edible matter |orange}}must wait. Finding Brittany must be my top priority! She must be starving by now! I know I am. Maybe I'll try to take my mind off my tummy by doing some writing. A little poetry always seems to make me feel better...}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|I wasn't able to locate Brittany, so the {{color|search for edible matter |orange}}must wait. Finding her must be my top priority! Poor Brittany, she must be completely starving by now... and knowing her, she won't be very happy about that fact!}}

===No sign of Brittany and out of food===

*'''Character''': Alph

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|Still no Brittany...and somehow I've eaten the last of my food already. Sometimes I wonder why we Koppaites can't manage to control our appetites better. But if I think about it for long, my tummy starts rumbling and... Well anyway, tomorrow I'll {{color|widen my search|orange}}. With any luck, I'll find something. Maybe something juicy and delicious...}}

===Saw Brittany===

*'''Character''': Alph

*'''US text''': {{transcript|Whew! Today I managed to make contact with {{color|Brittany|orange}}! She said she was just taking a nap. I wish I could be that calm right now. There's so much I can learn from Brittany. Maybe I'll try some breathing exercises... It's a bit difficult to do those effectively inside this helmet, though.}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|Today I managed to communicate with {{color|Brittany|orange}}. She said she'd just been taking a nap. I wish I could be that calm right now. There's so much I can learn from Brittany. Maybe I'll try some breathing exercises... Kind of hard to do in this helmet, though.}}

===Saw Brittany and out of food===

*'''Character''': Alph

*'''US text''': {{transcript|How am I out of food already?! It seems that we Koppaites never have enough food! Finding Brittany remains a top priority, but getting {{color|food|orange}} tomorrow needs to be an absolute-top-priority priority!}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|How can I be out of food already?! It seems we Koppaites have a lot to learn about sustainable eating. I still need to find Brittany, but if I don't come back with some {{color|food|orange}} tomorrow, I'm in big trouble.}}

===Saw the first fruit===

*'''Character''': Alph

*'''US text''': {{transcript|A Fruit Jamboree / I discovered a food source! Such a juicy slice of joy for all of Koppai! The Drake must still analyze, but the sweet taste of hope dances its way across the tip of my ticklish tongue. For now, I do declare that all shall kick their heels in a giant fruit jamboree!}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|I may have discovered a food source! I won't know for certain until I get the {{color|giant fruit |orange}}back to the Drake for analysis, but it looks promising. A big, juicy slice of hope for Koppai!}}

===Saw the first fruit and out of food===

*'''US text''': {{transcript|My food is somehow...gone! I knew I should have packed more food for the trip! I hope I can get that {{color|giant fruit|orange}} that Brittany discovered. I really hope it turns out to be edible. And I really, really hope it turns out to be tasty. I'll bring it back to the ship tomorrow to analyze it thoroughly.}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|My food is somehow...gone! I knew I should have packed more food for the trip! I hope I can retrieve the {{color|giant fruit|orange}} that Brittany found. I also hope it turns out to be OK for us to eat. And I really, really, really hope it turns out to be tasty. I'll try to get it back to the ship tomorrow for proper analysis (and tasting!).}}

===Collected the first fruit===

*'''Character''': Alph

*'''US text''': {{transcript|According to the Drake's equipment, the plant I brought back is an edible fruit! That means we can {{color|store the juice for our own food supply|orange}}! Not only that, but we can also take the {{color|seeds|orange}} back home and use those as a food resource. The more seeds we take home, the more people we'll be able to save on Koppai! Hm. Maybe there is something to this "recycling" thing...}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|According to the Drake's equipment, the fruit I brought back is edible! What a relief. It means we can {{color|store the juice for our own food supply|orange}}. Not only that, but we can also take the {{color|seeds|orange}} back home and use them to produce more fruit. The more seeds we take home, the more people we'll be able to save on Koppai!}}

===Discovered Rock Pikmin===

*'''Character''': Alph

*'''US text''': {{transcript|The Onions go airborne when the sun sets. This must be a defense mechanism against {{color|nocturnal predators|orange}}. I was surprised that the Rock- and Red- Pikmin Onions combined into one when the Drake took off. Guess the color differences don't mean much to them. Interesting...}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|It looks like the Onions take to the air when the sun sets. This must be a defence mechanism against {{color|nocturnal predators|orange}}. When the Drake took off I was surprised to see the Red Pikmin and Rock Pikmin Onions combine. Maybe differences in type don't matter much to Pikmin? They certainly make a good team.}}

===Discovered Rock Pikmin and collected the first fruit===

*'''US text''': {{transcript|Analyzing the recovered fruit back at the Drake, it was deemed {{color|suitable for Koppaite consumption|orange}}. There's got to be more where that came from. Also, it looks like these {{color|hard-bodied |orange}}Rock Pikmin are sticking around, which is good news. With their help, I'm sure I'll be able to reach Brittany soon.}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|Back on board, we ran some analysis on the piece of fruit we retrieved and found it {{color|suitable for Koppaite consumption|orange}}. There's got to be more where that came from! Also, it looks like the {{color|hard-bodied|orange}} Rock Pikmin will be joining the gang, which is a reason to be cheerful. I'm sure that with their help I'll be able to reach Brittany.}}

*'''Character''': Alph

*'''US text''': {{transcript|I've finally reunited with Brittany, one of my shipmates. Since she's a botanist, she'll be {{color|making the reports on the food we gather|orange}}. She's also in charge of rationing out our daily food supply, which is depleting unusually fast, now I think about it. Hmm, I'll have to keep an eye on her...}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|I've finally reunited with Brittany, one of my shipmates. Since she's a botanist, she'll be {{color|making reports on the food|orange}} we gather. She's also in charge of rationing out our daily food supply, which is depleting unusually fast, now I think about it. Hmm, I'll have to keep an eye on her...}}

 

 

 

 

 

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|Thanks to the Rock Pikmin, we managed to defeat the giant centipede. We found a {{color|mysterious communication device|orange}} inside its belly. I'm unsure of its origins, but my keen engineer's eye says it's from an advanced civilization. I'll see if I can confirm this once I get it back to the SS Drake.}}

===Collected the Data Glutton===

*'''Character''': Brittany

*'''US text''': {{transcript|We recovered the communication device that was inside the Armored Mawdad. According to Alph, this device contains parts that may {{color|expand the Drake's communications range|orange}}. I've never seen him so excited! I'm more than happy to write today's report while Alph examines the device. Sometimes he can be so diligent!}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|We recovered the communications device that was inside the Armoured Mawdad. According to Alph, this device contains parts that may {{color|expand the Drake's communications range|orange}}. I've never seen him so excited. He can't tear himself away from the thing! I'm more than happy to write today's report while Alph examines the device. Sometimes he can be so diligent!}}

===First landing in the Distant Tundra before completing the bridge===

*'''Character''': Alph

*'''US text''': {{transcript|We followed the {{color|captain's signal |orange}}into a desolate tundra. Due to poor visibility, I mishandled the ship, and uh...well, I lost control, and...Brittany was thrown overboard. Searching for her in blizzard-like conditions won't be easy, but I was able to verify that she's safe!}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|We followed the {{color|Captain's signal|orange}} to a desolate tundra. Visibility was terrible, and I must have messed up somehow because the auto-eject kicked in and threw Brittany overboard. Searching for her in these blizzard-like conditions won't be easy, but I was at least able to verify that she's safe!}}

===Second day in the Distant Tundra before completing the bridge===

*'''Character''': Alph

*'''US text''': {{transcript|I was able to locate Brittany on the opposite shore but haven't been able to reunite with her. We need to regroup soon.}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|I've managed to locate Brittany on the opposite shore, but I haven't been able to reunite with her. I hope she's all right over there on her own. We need to find a way to regroup soon.}}

===Third day in the Distant Tundra before completing the bridge===

*'''Character''': Alph

===Fourth day in the Distant Tundra before completing the bridge===

*'''Character''': Alph

*'''US text''': {{transcript|Quite a bit of time has passed since Brittany and I became separated. She must be so hungry by now, and Brittany gets so ornery when she's hungry. I wish I had some sort of bad-mood sensor I could use to track her down! What am I going to do?!}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|Quite a bit of time has passed since Brittany and I became separated. Brittany gets pretty crotchety even when she's a little hungry, and she must be ravenous by now. I'd better find a way to regroup with her before she gets too scary to bother!}}

*'''US text''': {{transcript|We finally completed the bridge over to the other shore! And Brittany discovered a type of {{color|Yellow Pikmin|orange}}! Besides their big ears, I'm excited to find out what other unique characteristics they may possess! I'll have to observe them closely... Good thing they're so cute to look at! Whew! What a day!}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|We finally managed to get a bridge built between the ship's landing spot and the opposite shore. I wonder if the {{color|Yellow Pikmin|orange}} that Brittany discovered have any unique characteristics besides their big ears? We'll have to observe them closely.}}

===Second day after completing the double bridge===

*'''Character''': Alph

*'''US text''': {{transcript|An Ode to Captain Charlie / O Captain Charlie, Where could you be? Can you control your appetite? Will you teach me? For many years, I've seen you as a mentor. O Captain Charlie, I really need to work on my rhyming.}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|- Ode to Captain Charlie, by Alph - Oh Captain Charlie, where could you be? I'm thinking of you. Are you thinking of me? You have long been my hero, and now you're my friend (I hope). I refuse to believe that you've met a bad end (though Brittany's not quite so sure). Hmm... Poetry never was my strong point.}}

*'''Character''': Alph

*'''US text''': {{transcript|We were hot on the trail of the captain's signal when we encountered a second {{color|monstrous creature|orange}}! It was too dark to get a good look at it, but might this creature hold a clue to the captain's whereabouts?}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|We were hot on the tail of the Captain's signal when we encountered a second {{color|monstrous creature|orange}}. It was too dark to get a good look, but I believe it may be the key to the Captain's whereabouts.}}

===Defeated the Vehemoth Phosbat===

*'''Character''': Alph

*'''US text''': {{transcript|Thanks to the Yellow Pikmin, we were able to defeat the Vehemoth Phosbat! And, much to everyone's surprise, we found our {{color|captain |orange}}inside the beast! Wow! And can you believe our luck? He found a data file from someone named {{color|Olimar|orange}}...who has our {{color|cosmic-drive key|orange}}! But where in the world is this {{color|Olimar|orange}}? Where?! We need that key!}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|Thanks to the Yellow Pikmin, we managed to defeat a Vehemoth Phosbat. And, much to our surprise, we found our {{color|Captain |orange}}inside the beast! I'm amazed that he was able to stay alive in the stomach of a such a hideous monster. That's a true hero for you! I wanted to hug him, but the smell put me off a bit.}}

*'''Character''': Alph

*'''US text''': {{transcript|Now that we have the captain back safe and sound, we'll begin exploration of this planet in earnest tomorrow. We should see if there are any {{color|undiscovered areas|orange}} in the places we've already visited.}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|Now that we have the Captain back safe and sound, we can begin exploration of this planet in earnest. We'll start tomorrow. I'm sure there are {{color|undiscovered areas|orange}} even in places we've already visited.}}

===Second day before returning to the Tropical Wilds===

*'''Character''': Alph

*'''US text''': {{transcript|Although we have the captain back, we haven't made much progress over the last few days. The search for edible matter is why we're here, but if we don't find that {{color|cosmic-drive key|orange}}, we'll never be able to get all this food back to Koppai! We should check the map next time we go out and see if any places look suspicious.}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|Although we have the Captain back, we haven't made much further progress over the last few days. We're here to search for edible matter, but if we don't find that {{color|cosmic drive key|orange}}, we'll never be able to get all of this food back to Koppai! We should check the map next time we go out, and see if we can find any clues.}}

*'''Character''': Alph

*'''US text''': {{transcript|We returned to the site of my original crash landing. Something here is sending out an electronic signal. Was it there earlier? It seems that the signal is somehow connected to that {{color|Hocotatian|orange}} who picked up our {{color|cosmic-drive key|orange}}. It's going to take a team effort to track this thing down! Saving our planet is turning out to be more difficult than I thought it would be...}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|We went back to the site of my first crash landing. I didn't detect it before, but there's something there emitting a strong electronic signal. We're hoping it has something to do with that {{color|Hocotatian|orange}} who we think picked up our {{color|cosmic drive key|orange}}. If the three of us work as a team, I'm sure we'll be able to find out!}}

*'''Character''': Alph

*'''US text''': {{transcript|Several days have passed without any leads on the {{color|cosmic-drive key|orange}}. Searching for fruit is important, of course, but we really need to track down the signal that seems to be coming from Captain Olimar. The area where I first crashed... I have a feeling something big is there...}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|Several days have passed without any leads on the {{color|cosmic drive key.|orange}} Searching for fruit is important, of course, but we really need to track down the signal that seems to be coming from Captain Olimar. That area where I crashed... I have a feeling something is there...}}

*'''Character''': Alph

*'''US text''': {{transcript|Beyond the dense jungle, at the end of a strangely foreboding pathway...we found ourselves in a vast desert. It rather resembles the terrain of Koppai. There we found a new {{color|communication device|orange}}! I'm starting to get a little homesick... That or it's just getting stuffy here in my helmet.}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|Through the dense jungle, at the end of a strangely foreboding pathway, we came upon a vast desert. It reminded me of the terrain of Koppai, and I've started to feel quite homesick. That, or I'm just getting too much oxygen in my helmet. Anyway, we found a new {{color|communications device |orange}}there!}}

 

 

*'''Character''': Charlie

 

===First landing in the Twilight River===

*'''US text''': {{transcript|I've successfully expanded the Drake's communication range, thank you very much! This allowed us to hone in on an unknown signal. I think we are getting closer to that {{color|Hocotatian|orange}} with our {{color|cosmic-drive key|orange}}! Now I need to rest though. I was up all night working on the communication system, and I deserve...a little... Zzzzzzz...}}

 

===Saw the Winged Onion===

*'''US text''': {{transcript|We discovered a {{color|new type of Onion |orange}}on the other side of the river, but it remains entangled in some sort of web. Based on what we've observed so far, Pikmin seem to evolve according to their environment. I'm thinking that new Pikmin will be helpful in exploring this area. Perhaps they'll join us if we free the Onion.}}

 

 

 

*'''US text''': {{transcript|We've made contact with the mysterious {{color|Captain Olimar|orange}}. This is the Hocotatian who we believe has been providing us with the data memos! It looks like he is in danger, though. If something happens to him, we may lose our {{color|cosmic-drive key |orange}}for good! Time to call in the Koppai cavalry!}}

 

 

*'''Character''': Alph

*'''Character''': Alph

*'''US text''': {{transcript|We finally managed to rescue Captain Olimar, but his suit has put him in a state of deep sleep. All we can do is wait for him to wake up. No sign of the {{color|cosmic-drive key|orange}}, either. I guess we'll use this time to relax for a bit and get some rest... Not the best day.}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|We finally managed to rescue {{color|Captain Olimar|orange}}, but he wasn't moving at all. It seems his suit has put him in a state of deep sleep, and all we can do is wait for him to wake up. No sign of the {{color|cosmic drive key|orange}}, either.}}

===Louie's landing in the Garden of Hope===

*'''Character''': Alph

*'''US text''': {{transcript|I can't believe it! Captain Olimar woke up! While we were sleeping, he took control of the Drake and touched down in the area where Brittany originally crash-landed. And as if that wasn't odd enough, he then {{color|grabbed all of the food |orange}}we gathered and ran off with it! We're going after him, but I can't help but wonder what is going on!}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|I can't believe it! Captain Olimar woke up! While we were sleeping, he took control of the Drake and touched down in the area where Brittany originally crash landed. And as if that wasn't odd enough, he then {{color|grabbed all of the food|orange}} we gathered and ran off with it! We're going after him, but I can't help but wonder what is going on?!}}

===Freed the Blue Onion===

*'''Character''': Alph

*'''US text''': {{transcript|We had some Winged Pikmin pull out what we thought was just a weed, but to our surprise, it turned out to be a {{color|new type of Onion|orange}}! This blue Onion then took root right in the ground and shot a single {{color|blue Pikmin bud|orange}} out into the water. I can't wait to see what special abilities this one might have. I have a guess...but I want to see it first!}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|We had some Winged Pikmin pull out what we thought was just a weed, but to our surprise, it turned out to be a {{color|new type of Onion|orange}}! This Blue Onion then took root in the ground and shot a single {{color|Blue Pikmin bud|orange}} out into the water. I can't wait to see what special abilities this one might have. I have an idea...but I want to see it first!}}

===Discovered Blue Pikmin===

*'''Character''': Alph

*'''US text''': {{transcript|The blue Onion was only able to produce a single {{color|Blue Pikmin|orange}}. I wonder if that took its last bit of strength. Thank goodness we were able to dig the Onion out. The Blue Pikmin may very well have been on the verge of extinction!}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|The Blue Onion only managed to produce a single {{color|Blue Pikmin|orange}}. I wonder if it took its last bit of strength. If we hadn't got this Onion out, the Blue Pikmin may well have ended up extinct!}}

*'''Character''': Alph

*'''US text''': {{transcript|Chasing down that vile fruit thief, {{color|Olimar|orange}}, we encountered a massive creature, far larger than anything we had seen before! It almost looked like a walking forest! I don't know how else to describe it...other than saying that we don't want to get caught under its foot. That could be messy—like, really bad messy.}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|When we were chasing down that vile fruit thief, {{color|Olimar|orange}}, we ran into a creature that was far bigger than anything we've seen up to now. It was like a walking swamp. You certainly wouldn't want to get caught under those feet...}}

===Defeated the Quaggled Mireclops===

*'''Character''': Alph

*'''US text''': {{transcript|When we defeated that unfathomably large beast, it coughed up that Olimar, like he was a bone caught in its throat. I certainly enjoyed that. It looks like his ship has seen better days. We need to get him back to the Drake so we can get some answers...and our fruit!}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|When we defeated that unfathomably large beast, it coughed up that Olimar like he was a bone caught in its throat. It looks like he has a {{color|broken-down spaceship |orange}}hidden here. We need to track him down so we can get some answers...and fruit!}}

===Rescued Louie for the second time===

*'''Character''': Alph

*'''US text''': {{transcript|We managed to capture the thief Olimar, that Hocotatian who had been eluding us. {{color|We retrieved our stolen food supplies|orange}}, but boy, was Brittany upset, and rightly so! After we all calmed down a bit, I started thinking that there is something fishy going on here... We need to get to the bottom of things...}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|We've finally managed to capture that thieving Hocotatian, Olimar, and have {{color|retrieved our stolen food supplies|orange}} from him. This has improved Brittany's mood no end! Still though, what was Olimar's objective? What was he doing in this area? I saw what looked to be a broken-down spaceship nearby... Tonight's job? Find out the truth!}}

===First landing in the Formidable Oak===

*'''US text''': {{transcript|The Hocotatian wasn't Captain Olimar, after all! Apparently, his name is {{color|Louie|orange}}. He claims to know the {{color|whereabouts of the real Captain Olimar|orange}}, who he says is currently in a perilous situation. With no other leads to the {{color|cosmic-drive key|orange}}, we have no choice but to trust and follow him. For now.}}

He claims to know the {{color|whereabouts of the real Captain Olimar|orange}}, who he says is currently in a perilous situation. With no other leads to the {{color|cosmic drive key|orange}}, we have no choice other than to put our trust him{{sic}}.}}

===Saw Captain Olimar===

*'''US text''': {{transcript|We found {{color|Captain Olimar|orange}}! ...Again! Pretty sure this is the real deal this time. He wasn't responsive, but his vital signs are good. I hope he's OK. He's our last hope for finding the {{color|cosmic-drive key|orange}} now.}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|We found {{color|Captain Olimar|orange}}! ...Again! We're pretty sure it's the real one this time. He wasn't responsive, but his vital signs are good. I hope he's OK. He's our last hope for finding the {{color|cosmic drive key|orange}} now.}}

*'''US text''': {{transcript|In our attempt to rescue Captain Olimar, we encountered a {{color|mysterious life-form|orange}} that really seemed to have it in for him. It seems strange that this being would be targeting a Hocotatian... Maybe we can find some answers when we get Captain Olimar back to the Drake.}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|In our attempt to rescue Mr Olimar, we encountered a {{color|mysterious life form|orange}}. For some reason, it really seemed to have it in for Olimar. Why was it after him, I wonder? Maybe we can find some answers when we get him back to the Drake.}}

===Initiated Plasm Wraith Fight===

*'''Character''': Alph

*'''US text''': {{transcript|That mysterious life-form not only swallowed Captain Olimar, but it also transmutated into {{color|some sort of humanoid|orange}}! It's going to take everything we've got, but we'll take that thing down! And then we'll save Captain Olimar! And then we'll save Koppai! And then we'll be heroes! LET'S DO THIS!}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|The mysterious life form not only swallowed Captain Olimar, it also mutated into some sort of {{color|two-legged monstrosity|orange}}! It's going to take everything we've got, but we're going to take that thing down! And we're going to save Captain Olimar!}}

===Mission complete, 0-32 fruits===

*'''US text''': {{transcript|On our mission, we gathered _ {{color|pieces|orange}} of fruit. Which is all fine and good, but what was with that bizarre, golden life-form? Why was it so bent on holding only Olimar captive? I mean, what am I? Soggy salad? But maybe I recognize all too well what fueled that life-form's fixation on Olimar... Maybe I don't, though... I'm still not sure.}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|And so we return from our mission unharmed, with _ {{color|pieces |orange}}of edible matter to take back with us. But what was that bizarre golden life form we encountered? Why was it fixated on Olimar, and Olimar alone? But maybe I recognize all too well what fuelled its fixation... Maybe it saw something in Olimar which it saw in no other... Yes, an unrequited love...}}

*'''Character''': Brittany

*'''US text''': {{transcript|We return from our mission successful in retrieving _ {{color|pieces|orange}} of edible matter! We picked up a stray Hocotatian as well, so we're on our way to drop him off. He won't stop talking about adding something called "mayonnaise" to vegetables to make them taste good. It'll take another food crisis for me to find out if he's right. I hope I never see this "mayonnaise"...}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|We've done pretty well! We're all still alive, and we've got _ {{color|pieces |orange}}of yummy edible matter to take back to Koppai with us. We've also picked up a stray Hocotatian, and we're on our way to drop him home. He tells me that if you add a sauce called 'mayonnaise' to vegetables it makes them taste good... I hate veggies, so it'll take another food crisis to get me to try that!}}

===Mission complete, 54-65 fruits===

*'''Character''': Alph

*'''US text''': {{transcript|Our first warp voyage was a success, and we're on our way back home! We're returning with _ {{color|pieces|orange}} of edible matter. However, if we continue to consume recklessly, Koppaites will once again face a food crisis in the future. Food production and consumption. These are the things we must plan carefully. The Pikmin taught me how to plan.}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|My first cosmic voyage has ended in success and we're on our way home. We're taking back _ {{color|pieces |orange}}of edible matter. However, if we Koppaites continue in our reckless and gluttonous ways, it won't be long until the next food crisis comes along. We need to plan for a cycle of production and consumption... Yes, I've learned a lot during this time with the Pikmin.}}

===Mission complete, all 66 fruits===

*'''US text''': {{transcript|Our mission is over, and we're returning with all the edible matter available in this planet's explorable areas! We shall return to Koppai with our heads held high! The other Hocotatian we rescued, Louie, has vanished, which is troubling. I thought he'd boarded the S.S. Drake with us, but maybe we left without him? Still, from what we've seen, I'm sure he'll be OK wherever he is...}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|Our mission is over, and we have managed to retrieve all of the edible matter available in this planet's explorable areas! We shall return to Koppai with our heads held high. Strangely Louie, the other Hocotatian we saved, is nowhere to be found. I thought he'd boarded the SS Drake with us, but maybe we left without him?

These entries are picked randomly when there is nothing else of interest to say. Some of these require certain conditions to be met in the story before they're picked, like [[Captain Charlie]] being unlocked for entries where Alph talks about him being back with the crew.

===Misc. 1===

*'''Character''': Alph

*'''US text''': {{transcript|Day _ for me on this planet. I was so excited to explore this place, but now I'm just feeling homesick. I miss my big sister, especially. She always shared her food with me, even when it was scarce. I can't wait to pay her kindness back when we show up with a ship full of seeds!}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|Day _ on this planet. While I'm in awe of my new surroundings, I can't help but miss my family back home, especially my big sister. She was always so kind to me, sharing food with me even when it was scarce. For her sake, and for the sake of all of Koppai, I must make it back home with edible matter from this planet.}}

===Misc. 2===

*'''US text''': {{transcript|I've been hearing terrible noises at night since we reunited with the captain. These sounds are truly awful, like nails scraping across a chalkboard. I've checked the ship top to bottom, but I can't seem to isolate the noise. What could be making that terrible sound...? I hope I'm not cracking up. Maybe I just need a good night's rest.}}

*'''US text''': {{transcript|Strange things have been happening everywhere. On our way to this planet, the captain cried out "Elizabeth!" several times while he was sleeping. Could that be his wife's name? I don't even know if the captain is married. Would it be OK to bring this up as a conversation starter?}}

*'''Character''': Brittany

*'''US text''': {{transcript|Upon completion of my analysis of this planet's atmospheric composition, I can now safely conclude that the concentration of oxygen is roughly three times that of Koppai. The planet's gravity is roughly one-tenth of Koppai's. The combination of a rich-oxygen atmosphere and low gravity is a key contributor to the planet's oversized flora and fauna.}}

*'''Character''': Alph

*'''US text''': {{transcript|Whenever Onions unite, I can't help but wonder how a single Onion can hold so many Pikmin. Do they shrink back into seeds for easier packing? It makes me feel funny just thinking about it.}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|Whenever Onions unite, I can't help but wonder how a single Onion can hold so many Pikmin. Do they shrink back into seeds for easier packing? It makes me feel funny just thinking about it.}}

 

===Misc. 7===

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|For we Koppaites, using up our food supply seems to be written into our DNA. We eat until food runs out, at which point we migrate to a place with more food. Simple! But now, I'm starting to think that maybe this isn't the best way to go about things. With the population booming on Koppai, we may need rethink our methods for the sake of the preservation of our species...}}

 

 

*'''US text''': {{transcript|Pikmin are driven by an instinct to carry off anything lying around. Objects that will spawn more Pikmin are taken to the Onion, while other items are taken to either the ship or back to the item's original location. This creates a symbiotic relationship between them and other species. I thought this was just an instinct for tidying up, but it could actually be key to their prosperity.}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|It seems that Pikmin are driven by instinct to carry away anything they see lying around. Prey that will increase their numbers are carried to the Onion, whereas things they cannot use are carried to the spaceship or to their original location. Thus, their carrying instinct lets them form symbiotic relationships with species like us. This could be the key to their success.}}

 

*'''US text''': {{transcript|Pikmin sprout from seeds and seem to change from plant to animal when plucked. They obediently follow us and even risk their lives for us when necessary. This loyalty may aid in the propagation and survival of their species. It certainly has made us very protective of them. Could the Pikmin be somehow controlling us? No, that's ridiculous...isn't it?}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|The Pikmin sprout from seeds and transform from plants into animals when uprooted. They treat outsiders like us as their leaders, obediently following us and even risking their lives for us when necessary. Yet it's this obedience that has aided in their propagation and survival. Perhaps it is actually the Pikmin who are controlling us.}}

 

*'''US text''': {{transcript|Different species of Pikmin have their own sets of unique characteristics based on their environments. The outcome of our mission will most likely depend on how well we can master the various Pikmin abilities to achieve our goal.}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|Different species of Pikmin have their own unique characteristics, which I suspect they evolved to help them adapt to diverse environments. The outcome of our mission will most likely depend on how well we command the various Pikmin types to make full use of their abilities.}}

 

===Misc. 12===

*'''US text''': {{transcript|The Pikmin are so dedicated to us. Even in battle, they trust in our orders and fight on no matter what happens. We must also stay focused in the heat of battle. As leaders, it's our job to guide them effectively and intelligently. We must do our best for their sake...as well as for Koppai's. Wow, there's a lot of responsibility in this whole saving-the-future business...}}

*'''Character''': Brittany

*'''US text''': {{transcript|The Pikmin are so carefree, they remind me of little schoolchildren on a field trip. It makes me wonder what will happen to them when we return to Koppai. They were fine before our arrival, of course. However, I wonder if perhaps we should leave someone behind to further observe the Pikmin. The captain might be interested...}}

===Misc. 14===

*'''Character''': Brittany

*'''US text''': {{transcript|I just noticed that Alph's follicle design bears a striking resemblance to that of our captain. I knew of Alph's poems lauding the captain, but I was unaware that he was also attempting to mimic his physical appearance. Alph has matured on this mission, but he still has room for growth. Soon, he will need to start nurturing himself rather than seeking it from others.}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|I've noticed that Alph's chosen hairstyle bears a striking resemblance to that of our Captain. I've been aware of Alph's wide-eyed hero-worship of the Captain for some time, but I hadn't noticed that he was imitating him too. Alph has matured a lot on this mission, but there is clearly still room for growth.}}

*'''Character''': Brittany

*'''US text''': {{transcript|Oh Captain Charlie— Wait—I sound like one of Alph's poems. Dear Captain Charlie, I hope— No, that's still too casual. Captain: Alph and I are well. We hope to find you soon. Brittany out. Was that too formal?}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|Captain, wherever you are... Alph and I are doing well. We've never been able to find you...but I'm sure you're with us in spirit. And if your spirit could guide us to some food, that would be great. Thanks!}}

===Misc. 16===

*'''Character''': Charlie

*'''US text''': {{transcript|The terrain of this planet is wonderfully varied. A couple times already, I thought we were at a dead end, only to find a way forward by tossing a crew member! It's almost like the planet is testing my ability to solve problems creatively! It doesn't matter if I throw Brittany or Alph...but it's always more fun to throw Alph. I don't know why.}}

It's almost like the planet is testing my ability to solve problems creatively! I know it doesn't really matter who I throw, but I always choose Alph. You should never throw away the things that you love...}}

*'''US text''': {{transcript|I think I've discovered a design flaw in the Drake's emergency-ejection system. When we tried to land, the system was too sensitive, just as it was the other day when Brittany was ejected! I mean, it wasn't my best descent, but the ship wasn't really shaking THAT much...}}

*'''US text''': {{transcript|I Am Found in You, Rubber Ducky / Eyes like gleaming algae whisper as my worries fall away like water crashing in rushes within thrushes off your back... Your bill, mischievous as slick stone, cups a subtle pout inside a wry smile. One look at you, rubber ducky, and I am lost... Nay. One look at you, I am found. Wow. Alph is really rubbing off on me!}}

===Misc. 19===

*'''Character''': Alph

*'''US text''': {{transcript|I only buy space suits at this one retail outlet that has several locations throughout the galaxy. I feel like I'm always seeing people on other planets wearing the same suits as me. Maybe I need to switch it up a bit from just rotating the same three suits all the time. ...It's kind of embarrassing sometimes.}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|I tend to buy my spacesuits from Star Bazaar. It has several locations around the galaxy. For that reason, I feel like I'm always seeing people on other planets wearing the same suits as me. I wonder... Maybe I should switch it up a bit, and not just keep rotating the same three suits all the time.}}

*'''Character''': Alph

*'''US text''': {{transcript|Reflections on Hocotatians / My grandpa would often tell me tales of an ancient civilization... Ones with a love for culture and great art, these Hocotatians. What is a Hocotatian doing on this planet? Seeking paintings or sculptures of granite? Hey, I rhymed! Well, until just then, anyway.}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|Hocotatians. According to my Grandpa they're a very advanced civilization. They apparently have a highly refined taste for the arts, and he told me that many of them love to collect ancient artwork and artefacts. Perhaps the Hocotatian who's been leaving notes on this planet came here in search of that kind of treasure?}}

===Misc. 23===

*'''Character''': Brittany

*'''US text''': {{transcript|Time away from home has given me the opportunity to reflect on Koppai's food crisis. It seems that the responsibility for proper management of resources has been mishandled by those in seats of power. Perhaps another key resource we can take back to Koppai is the leadership that our people truly need. I probably shouldn't be writing this in my official report...}}

===Misc. 25===

*'''Character''': Charlie

*'''US text''': {{transcript|When sunset approaches, time gets short! When you feel the crunch, you can pile on layers of Pikmin into ongoing tasks to speed them up. Or you can spread 'em out and try to broaden your operations. You have options, and by "you," I guess I mean "me." Not sure why I'm referring to myself in the second person. Space is a funny place...}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|When sunset approaches, time is short and we have to decide on the best use of the last moments available to us. We can put more Pikmin into ongoing tasks to speed them up. Or we can spread them out and try to broaden the scope of our operations. For those of us in a position of leadership, there are a lot of weighty choices to make.}}

*'''Character''': Brittany

*'''US text''': {{transcript|Because of Hocotate's proximity to Koppai, the planet has always been an interest of mine. It is most noted for being a large-scale producer and exporter of vegetables; namely, Pikpik carrots. Unfortunately for us on Koppai, these carrots contain no Piktamin U and are thus unsuitable for our personal consumption. They should've given the carrots a different name.}}

*'''Character''': Charlie

*'''US text''': {{transcript|Ah...missions like this remind me of my old days as a ranger. I was brash, young, and bedecked in medals! I learned how to be a real ranger in those days...in outer space... all alone. Still, it's nice to have comrades—our engineer, Alph, and our botanist, Brittany. Especially Brittany...}}

===Misc. 29===

*'''Character''': Charlie

*'''US text''': {{transcript|The size of this planet is making achieving our goals quite a challenge. We need to simultaneously explore the planet as we gather fruit. In order to achieve that with our limited resources, I've assigned Alph to exploration while Brittany will help me search for fruit. I don't like breaking up the team, but I think it's necessary.}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|I am astounded by the size of this planet. We must explore vast unknown expanses as we search for edible matter. To achieve this we clearly need a disciplined chain of command. Alph can explore new areas alone, while Brittany and I look after the food, perhaps... In any case, assigning leaders to work on different tasks is a good way to increase efficiency.}}

===Misc. 30===

*'''Character''': Charlie

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|That Hocotatian Louie really is a shifty character. And he seems more obsessed with food than we Koppaites! It's all he talks about. Apparently, he gets fed up with vegetables and actually eats some of the indigenous creatures here. Eugh. Anyway, we're going to keep him under lock and key until we can get some real answers.}}

*'''US text''': {{transcript|Keeping Louie on board is posing a bit of a problem concerning our food rations. I must feed him, if only for the sake of diplomatic relations between Koppai and Hocotate. We may need to start splitting rations equally between us all. I'm sure that idea is going to go over swimmingly with Alph and Captain Charlie.}}

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|Keeping Louie on board is posing a bit of a problem concerning our food rations. I must feed him, if only for the sake of diplomatic relations between Koppai and Hocotate. I may need to cut someone else's rations... The Captain's, for example. Oh, wait! I've been doing that already. Any other ideas...? Somehow, it's the only solution that springs to mind.}}

 

*'''US text''': {{transcript|I'm marking this as Day _ since we touched down. It still seems unreal that we are 279,000 light-years away from home. This is exactly the kind of experience I've been longing for! I think that saving my home planet is going to be really good for my poetry writing.}}

*'''US text''': {{transcript|Pikmin are short but the days are shorter! The KopPad's "Go here" function can help us budget our time! One crew member can pluck Pikmin at the Onion, and someone else can command Pikmin elsewhere! We will encounter many different and difficult scenarios, but the ability to multitask will be key to our success!}}

 

 

 

 

*'''Europe text''': {{transcript|We've finally found Captain Olimar, but it appears he's being pursued by some kind of bizarre life form. We need to try to get him back to the Drake, and escape from this labyrinth. In all likelihood this will be our final struggle. Unfortunately, though, there isn't a single piece of fruit here. Brittany's morale seems to be sinking, but I must get her to make one last push...}}

 

 

*'''US text''': {{transcript|I lost all of my Pikmin. I wish the captain were here, as I clearly have a lot to learn about leadership. Tomorrow, it'll just be me all alone out there. I still have the Onion, though. Maybe I can find some way to get some use out of it...}}

 

 

 

 

 

*'''US text''': {{transcript|We were careless. Our space suits took far too much damage. Luckily, we're still alive, thanks to the emergency teleporter. However, the Pikmin fighting alongside us were left behind. We need to pay more attention to the damage meter in the lower-left corner of the screen! If one of us is in danger, we can always switch leaders.}}

 

*'''US text''': {{transcript|I've polished off the last of our juice on board. We Koppaites aren't very good at controlling our appetites. Maybe we should've packed more supplies. We're not very good at making plans, either. I need to find {{color|something to eat|orange}} tomorrow.}}

*'''US text''': {{transcript|Sixty days have passed since we landed on this planet. My only pleasures are in the juice and the hot bath I get at the end of each day. Luckily, water is plentiful on this planet, and my crewmates always let me have the first soak. Even so, I can't help but get a little creeped out by the captain's rubber ducky. It just floats there, staring at me...}}

When I get back to Koppai, I'll show everyone how we can manage our botanical resources for the greater good!}}

Right now, it's more important to think about how to get home!}}
