Poko

This page is part of the merge with Pikmin Wiki, and needs resolving. Please bear with us as we do so. Before the import, this subject had a page both on Pikipedia and Pikmin Wiki. You are currently reading the Pikipedia version, and the Pikmin Wiki version can be found here. Both versions need to be manually merged together and placed on the current page. At Pikmin Wiki, this page was called "Pokos", which is likely different from the current title. It might make sense to rename this page. |
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.
Trivia
- They bear a strong resemblance to the coins found in the Mario series of video games.
