It seems that Pokos are used in [[Koppai]] (the home planet of the new captains in ''[[Pikmin 3]]'') as well since coins that greatly resemble pokos can be seen in the money counter in the demo.

A Poko as seen in the opening cinema.

The Poko is the currency used on Olimar's home planet, Hocotate. Pokos were offically introduced in Pikmin 2; the plot concerned them. However, when the Secret Safe is found in Pikmin, Olimar states that it is as full as ever; none of his Pokos were lost. In Pikmin 2, Olimar and Louie have to pay a debt of 10,100 Pokos by visiting the Planet of the Pikmin, where collecting 'treasures' can pay off this supposedly immeasurably large sum of money. In comparison, 100 Pokos is more than a year's wages for the President of Hocotate Freight. Pokos are ovular, and thin, and are made of some sort of golden colored material.
