Cupid's Grenade

Olimar's journal

US GCN/Wii, EU GCN

“What a perplexing plant... It appears to be carrying two different types of berries! They must be a rare species of fruit. Both have odd traits. One seems to be a suppressant, while the other is a stimulant. It's not easy to tell which is which. I'd better be careful with them. I should also warn Louie, or else he may try to bake these berries in a pie.”

EU Wii

“What a perplexing fruit... It appears to possess two curiously conflicting traits. At times, consuming it can bring forth wonderful feelings of love and affection. At other times, it can completely suppress all romantic inclinations. Its unpredictable nature means that I must be careful with it. I'll also warn Louie, or else he's liable to try baking it in a pie.”

Nintendo Switch

“What a perplexing fruit... This appears to be from a tree that produces two types of berries that look identical. But some inspire romance, and others do the opposite. It's not easy to tell which is which. I'd better be careful with them. I should also warn Louie, or else he may try to bake this berry in a pie.”

“１本の樹木が、同じ外見の２種類の実をつける。とても珍しい果樹といえる。それぞれヤブレとカブレといい、恋愛本能を抑制する効果と恋愛本能を刺激する効果がある。見た目では区別がつかないため、イチかバチかの最後の手段として用いるべきだろう。”
  • Translation
“One tree bears two kinds of fruits with the same appearance. It is a very unusual fruit tree. They are called Yabure and Kabure, respectively, and have the effect of suppressing the love instinct and stimulating the love instinct. Since they are indistinguishable from each other in appearance, they should only be used as a last resort.”

Sunseed Berry

Olimar's journal

US/EU GCN/Wii/NS

“I found this fascinating fruit while out exploring today. The skies cleared up, and I felt peaceful watching the pink flower petals flutter in the wind. During this perilous expedition, it seems strange to have such softhearted, romantic thoughts. If I told my wife about this, I'm sure I'd get laughed at...again.”

“今日はこのフルーツを見つけた。空がはれわたり、桜色の花びらが美しく舞う様子を見ていると、心がウキウキしてきた。危険な探険中にロマンチストすぎるだろうか？妻にいったら、また笑われてしまうな。しかし苦しい時こそ、男にはロマンが必要だと思う。”
  • Translation
“Today I found this fruit. As I watched the sky clear and the pink flower petals dance beautifully, I felt lighthearted. Am I being too romantic during this dangerous expedition? If I told my wife, I would be laughed at again. But I think it is in times of hardship that a man needs romanticism.”

“I've collected all kinds of edible objects, but the ship's sensors can't judge taste. To make up for the ship's shortcomings, I'm making a special effort to try everything.”

“集めた物体の中には、食べられる物も存在する。しかし味は機械にはなかなか判断できない。私はぜひとも試食すべきだと主張しているのだが……。別に私の食い意地が張っているわけではない。”

Seed of Greed

Olimar's journal

US/EU GCN/Wii/NS

“The Wistful Wild is an especially vicious region. The creatures there have had to battle hard to survive in this unforgiving landscape. That's probably why they've evolved such an ill temper. For instance, this plant's berries suck the nutrition from the surrounding flora!”

JP NGC/Wii/NS

  • Text
“のぞみの大地一帯は、他の地域よりも生物の生存競争が激しいようだ。あたかも、生物の欲望と欲望が直接ぶつかり合っているように思える。たとえばこの木の実は、周囲の植物から栄養をうばって、こんなに大きくなったようだ。”
  • Translation
“In the Wistful Wild region, competition for survival seems to be even more intense than in other regions. It seems as if the desires and wants of the creatures are in direct conflict with each other. For example, this nut seems to have grown so large by taking nourishment from the surrounding plants.”

Disguised Delicacy

Olimar's journal

US/EU GCN/Wii/NS

“The fruit on this planet is astonishingly large. If we could cultivate these ample fruits on Hocotate, nobody would ever go hungry again! Sadly, I don't know anything about agriculture. Maybe I should have listened to my wife when she told me to do yard work...”

Insect Condo

“This fruit was dug up from the floor of an icy cavern. It appears that the fruit's thick skin protected it from the frigid cold... It's quite remarkable.

“The Valley of Repose is blanketed with a layer of snow. Despite this, here and there plants are sprouting out of the snow. I don't know how much longer the snow will last... It seems like it's getting warmer each day. I wish our frosty financial predicament would warm up a bit.”

Anxious Sprout

Olimar's journal

US/EU GCN/Wii/NS

“I just realized I completely forgot to put something in my latest expedition report. When carrying fallen creatures or pellets, Pikmin will take them to the Onion of their same color. If a mixed crew of Pikmin are carrying spoils, the color majority dictates the destination. Carry pellets to same-colored Onions to maximize Pikmin seed production.”

JP NGC/Wii/NS

“そういえば、うっかり探険レポートに書きもらしていたことがあった。ピクミンは、自分の色のオニヨンに獲物を運びこもうとする習性がある。赤ピクミンは赤オニヨンに、黄ピクミンは黄オニヨンに。また、ペレットは同じ色のオニヨンに運びこんだほうが栄養の吸収が良く、生まれるタネの数が多い。”
  • Translation
“Come to think of it, I inadvertently left something out of my exploration report. Pikmin habitually carry their prey to the Onion of their own color. Red Pikmin to Red Onions, Yellow Pikmin to Yellow Onions. Also, when pellets are carried to the same-colored Onion, there is better absorption of nutrients and a greater number of seeds produced.”

Pilgrim Bulb

I felt like a lord for a while, but then I saw that they were trying to carry me into the Onion! "I'm not nutritients!", I exclaimed, and then I woke up. That...was really a dream, right?”
