American Data Files

Journal Entry  #1

Curse that Hocotate ship. It may once have been a top-of-the-line vessel, but it's now an insult to my piloting. I can't wait to pay off that debt and get back in my beloved S.S. Dolphin. But that means I need to find something really valuable before I return home...  -Captain Olimar

  • Area: Garden of Hope
  • Location: In a small puddle inside the Quaggled Mireclop's arena. It should be near the Hocotate Ship.

Louie has become even more problematic. All he does is nod or shake his head. And yet he consumes three times the amount of food that I do. Not cool, Louie...not cool. - Captain Olimar

Journal Entry #3

My search for treasure continues with no luck. But I can't fly back home to Hocotate without procuring a few priceless artifacts! I'm sensing something valuable up ahead. But I'm also sensing danger. So if someone finds this data file, please send word to my son...that I didn't make it. -Captain Olimar

This golden, glittering life-form has taken a real shine to me. It doesn't seem dangerous, but it also won't let me go, for some strange reason.
