::::Why would they speak English? {{user:Jimbo Jambo/sig}}
::::Why would they speak English? {{user:Jimbo Jambo/sig}}
:::::But, Olimar doesn't refer to humans (Except this treasure) and refers to hocotatians multiple times... What JJ? {{User:Crystal_lucario/Sig}}
::::::The only two instances of Olimar using "human" to describe something Hocotatian I can think of are here where he says "humanoid life," and when he refers to the "human heart." In this case, "humanoid" doesn't mean humans specifically, just intelligent beings with a human-like body shape (not that Olimar is using humans as a reference, but "humanoid" is the term used most sci-fi and fantasy). And like I said, I think the Ship just says "human heart" either because "Hocotatian heart" would sound weird, or because it was simply an oversight on the part of the writers. Like you said, Crystal, Olimar never directly refers to humans by a particular name, so it's not as if the term "human" could be used to refer to anything but Hocotatians. {{user:Jimbo Jambo/sig}}
::::::::But, he does make a refrence to knowing of a civilization that created the battery, meaning he knows there was humanoid life, which possibaly means it was a translation error and should have been Humanoid Heart and was translated inccorectly. Thoughts? {{User:Crystal_lucario/Sig}}
:::::::::Yeah? [[User:AFROMAN | '''''<span style="color:blue;">AF</span><span style="color:red;">RO</span><span style="color:green;">MAN</span>''''']] 12:46, 5 December 2008 (UTC)
:::::::::He knows an alien civilization created it, but he knows nothing of them. Also, I think "humanoid heart" might have made it sound like it was talking about the actual organ. Then again, I really don't know how much thought was put into to writing these, so I suppose it could really be a number of things. {{user:Jimbo Jambo/sig}}
WOOT!!! I changed ma sig!...slightly [[User:Wiki443556|&#39;&#39;&#39;I AM wiki443556!!&#39;&#39;&#39;]] 18:33, 5 December 2008 (UTC)
:@JJ:I suppose, I still think there might be a little mistranslation there somewhere... wtvr... {{User:Crystal_lucario/Sig}}
==Trivia==
Olimar says it's a new energy source (ie. batteries are foreign to him), not that electricity is unknown to Hocotate. So the trivia's unneeded?{{User:Greenpickle/sig}}
:yeah he is kind of vague with the word "technology"... I'm thinking move the trivia to the ''proton AA'' page where the sales pitch is less vague [[User:MRPANTS|MRPANTS]] 02:59, February 20, 2010 (UTC)
::He doesn't talk about not knowing what electricity is on that page either. Basically, the trivia is false.{{User:Greenpickle/sig}}
:::I was talking more about the sales pitch... so either change ¨olimar¨ to ¨the ship (pikmin2)¨ and move the trivia to proton AA to or just delete the trivia because i get the feeling the ship doesn´t know all that much about anything *cough* gemstar husband *cough*
:::[[User:MRPANTS|MRPANTS]] 16:12, February 20, 2010 (UTC)
::::The ship doesn't mention electricity on Proton AA either, but yeah, I'll just remove it. Also, why are you doing really weird quotes (should be ", ')?{{User:Greenpickle/sig}}
:::::quote from the sales pitch ¨Some enigmatic '''energy''' '''unknown on Hococtate''' is trapped inside¨. I would assume the mystery energy refered to is electricity. on a different note... I use linux, the quotation mark key is used to modify letters (like é or á). to type quotation marks I have to hit the key twice. same for tidles. [[User:MRPANTS|MRPANTS]] 18:07, February 20, 2010 (UTC)
::::::Maybe a different form of energy is used on the planet Hocotate and has similar properties to that of electricity? <span style="border:2px outset blue;background-color:black;-moz-border-radius:1px">'''[[User:Blue Ninjakoopa|<span style="color:blue;">Blue</span>]] [[User talk:Blue Ninjakoopa|<span style="color:blue">Ninjakoopa</span>]]'''</span> 18:32, February 20, 2010 (UTC)
::::::You just said, you're assuming electricity - of course, it being a battery, it's chemical energy. And electricity is used on Hocotate: [[Notes:Eternal Fuel Dynamo/monolog|Eternal Fuel Dynamo/notes]]. And that doesn't really explain why your quotes are weird, just that you have to enter them weirdly. Wouldn't it be easier to use super for accent modifiers, anyway?{{User:Greenpickle/sig}}
:::::::Maybe they just forgot about chemical batteries because they use infinite electricity generators or never knew about them, either way the triva stands corrected. I can type quotes """"""" by pressing quote key and space, but they don't show up in edit mode so I used ¨ because I didn´t test it up until a little bit ago[[User:MRPANTS|MRPANTS]] 00:51, February 21, 2010 (UTC)
It's possible that they use diesel or make fuel from PikPik carrots.[[User:Pikdude|<span style="color:blue">Pik</span>]][[User talk:Pikdude|<span style="color:green">dude</span>]][[File:200px-Mario you phail.gif|50px]] 19:27, February 21, 2010 (UT)
OM NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM... mmmmm biofuel
yeah i think the dolphin engine has little pistons that move up and down  indicating some sort of combustion is going on. Also hocotate has batteries see the positron generator. [[User:MRPANTS|MRPANTS]] 14:04, February 22, 2010 (UTC)

== Switch version problem ==
The name of this item is a pun, DURAble energy CELL aka duracell. However, the switch version removed the duracell on the battery, so now There's no pun. They could've just replaced it with a european or japanese treasure, but nope. [[User:Mama09001|Mama09001]] ([[User talk:Mama09001|talk]]) 00:38, May 8, 2024 (EDT)
