Notes
Olimar's journal
“At first, this object looked impressive, but closer inspection reveals it's just a cheap statue. In many ways, it reminds me of my father. Hmmm... I probably shouldn't tell him that.”
Sales pitch
“Once, on an unknown planet, a megalithic civilization flourished, and this is proof of its existence! For hoarders of ancient artifacts, this is a must-have piece! Truly, collectors will crave it! (I do not know if that is true or not, but items in demand fetch higher prices.)”
Olimar's journal (Nintendo Switch)[edit]
“At first, this object looked impressive, but closer inspection reveals it's just a cheap statue. The figure looks like it's a little helpless on its own. Something to think about, I guess...”
Olimar's journal (Japanese)[edit]
- Text: “一見えらそうだが、よく見るとえらくなさそうな、ちょっとショボい形の石像。まるで今時の父親を表わしているかのようだ。少しシンパシーを感じる。”
- Translation: “At first glance, this stone statue looks admirable, but upon closer inspection, it has a not-so-admirable, somewhat shabby shape. It seems to represent the fathers of today. I feel a little sympathy for it.”

- Translation: “At first glance, this stone statue looks admirable, but upon closer inspection, it has a not-so-admirable, somewhat shabby shape. Its shape makes it look like it can't do anything on its own. I feel a little sympathy for it.”

Trivia[edit]
- The Worthless Statue's name is a reference to the King's role in chess; the King is arguably one of the weakest pieces on the board, as it has very little mobility and largely relies on the other pieces for protection. Olimar's notes on the Switch rerelease of Pikmin 2 reference this, noting that the piece "looks like it's a little helpless on its own."
- In spite of their names, the Worthless Statue and Priceless Statue are worth the same amount of Pokos.
