Minor characters

To do: Add sources. A lot of them. Care to do so?

There are some minor characters mentioned in the Pikmin series, but are never given any more importance to the plot than the main leaders and other similar characters. Some of these supporting characters include family members to the main cast. Because some of these are only briefly mentioned, little is known about them, such as their name.

Olimar's family

Olimar's known family consists of his wife, his son, his daughter, and his pet, Bulbie. Since Olimar works for Hocotate Freight, it seems he gets little time to spend with his family. In Pikmin 3, he addresses this by stating that he will take his whole family on a vacation when he gets home. Judging from the Pikmin 2 mail, it seems that Olimar's family has no responsibility for handling money, because they spend Olimar's bonuses on things like trips to the hot springs, and his son states that he should send in a bonus check for a spam mail offer.

Olimar's wife is a woman who cares much about her kids, but is usually irresponsible when it comes to money. When Olimar's special bonuses arrive at his house, she often uses the money to buy her kids what they have been wanting. However, it seems that money can make the best of her. Whenever the bonuses come in, she seems to get stricter on her kids, and might be lacking in common sense, as Olimar's son states that she wants things like sending Bulbie to the circus. She admits to sometimes going to beaches and theaters all day until the kids come home.

After losing a large amount of money, she realizes the mistake she made, and loosens back up into her former self. In the original versions of Pikmin 2, this resulted from her wasting money on lottery tickets; the Nintendo Switch port alters the mail to say that she was pickpocketed. In both cases, the Japanese version of the mail say that she was pickpocketed at a casino. After time has passed, she pleads for Olimar to come home (very lovingly), promising his favorite meal – pikpik carrot soup.

At one point during Pikmin 2, she tried to apply for a part-time job, but got rejected in favor of younger employees. Sometime after this, she instead gets a job as a boss as mentioned in Hey! Pikmin.

In Pikmin 2, her age becomes indirectly noted, given that Olimar mentions his wife's wrinkles – a sign of elderhood. He plans to take her on vacation to calm her down. At some point after collecting all 201 treasures in Pikmin 2, she will send a repeating message asking Olimar to come home. The only way to stop these messages is to open a new save file.

Olimar's son is a standard young boy. He seems to be fascinated by his father's adventures, and seems to envy him. He is addicted to video games, and enjoys them more than studying, in contrast to Olimar's daughter. Judging by some of his mail, he must be in his teenager years, and is anxious with girls. He always yearns for his father to come home, and doesn't like it when his mother becomes strict because of the pay bonuses, asking his father to come home to fix the mess. He seems to be easily won over, as he asks if he should send in Olimar's bonus check for a piece of spam mail.

Olimar's son is also known to have gifted his father the Sagittarius. Because of this, some fans nickname the boy "Sagittarius".

Latest game	Pikmin 2 (Nintendo Switch)

Olimar's daughter is seen only wearing a pink suit with a hood of sorts, and has little personality. In her mail she sends in Pikmin 2, she discusses briefly how she is being pressured to become a proper lady, and asks Olimar what she should do. She also speaks about how Olimar's wife has changed during the absence of her husband. She attends some school on Hocotate, based on the fact that her mother gets strict about her writing and studying. She also appears to like jewelry, as noted by Olimar on some treasures. Despite these mature traits, she is depicted as a baby in a Pikmin voyage log, and in the bulletin board in The Night Juicer yet her brother seems the same age in both. This is likely a consistency error.

Olimar's daughter is known to have gifted the Libra to her father, and that the Libra is her astrological sign. Because of this, some fans give her the nickname "Libra". She also appears as a sticker in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. The sticker increases Pikmin attack damage by 7%.

Bulbie

Olimar's family, as seen in his voyage log. Bulbie is at the bottom.

Bulbie is Olimar's family pet space dog. He is briefly mentioned in Pikmin and Hey! Pikmin, and is described to physically resemble a Bulborb, as the voyage log he's seen in depicts him with eye-stalks, a wide mouth, and two legs. He is also described as very lazy, which is sometimes a characteristic of real world dogs. While Olimar is away from his family in Pikmin 2, Bulbie gets thin after his family forgets to feed him. He later eats many pikpik carrots and returns to normal. Olimar's wife also threatens to send Bulbie away to the circus during this time.

Olimar's parents

Olimar's mother and father are briefly mentioned in his notes on the Priceless Statue and Worthless Statue respectively in the Nintendo GameCube and New Play Control! versions of Pikmin 2. Olimar sees his father as slightly worthless and, at a first glance being impressive, but being considered "cheap" upon closer inspection. Olimar's mother is reminisced by him when writing the notes for the Priceless Statue, and notes how the treasure is similar to a gift he once gave her for Mother's Day. Although he likes her, he admits there are times where he is not fond of her. Finally, the notes on the Taste Sensation also mention Olimar's mother, in that Olimar describes the treasure's taste to be similar to something his mother has cooked for him by hand.

Louie's family

The only member of Louie's family is mentioned in Pikmin 2 and Pikmin 4, his grandmother.

Louie's grandmother

Name	Louie's grandmother
Gender	Female
Age	Old age (age unknown)

Hair color	Gray
Home planet	Hocotate

Height	Unknown
First game	Pikmin 2
Latest game	Pikmin 2 (Nintendo Switch)

Louie's grandmother shows a lot of love for Louie, as well as a lot of concern as he is missing for part of Pikmin 2. In her mail, she describes fond memories of Louie as a boy and how bugs loved him (or rather, loved biting him). She sometimes sang a special lullaby to put him to sleep. She also talks about how she made Louie eat bugs and how he loves pikpik carrots, and she apparently sends preserved bug food with her mail, though it is never actually seen or detailed. At least in Louie's youth, his grandmother lived near a mountain which he suggests was muddy. Louie claims that she likes round, shiny objects. It appears as though she is not alone, given how at one point she uses the term "we" in one of her mails.

After all the treasures in the game have been collected, Louie's grandmother sends one final message, in which she shows her pride in how Louie has become an "extraordinary man". In the GameCube and Wii versions of Pikmin 2, she mistakenly referred to herself as Louie's "dad" in this message, likely due to ババ^? (lit.: "grandmother") being misread as パパ^? (lit.: "dad"). This mistake is not present in the Japanese version, and is fixed in the Switch port, where the word "nana" is used instead. The same mistake was fixed with his "auntie" which is retconned as his grandmother in the Switch port.

In his voyage log in Pikmin 4, Louie indirectly mentions that his grandmother sent him cookies to eat during his mission to rescue Captain Olimar. Louie grew tired of her cookies, so he started cooking creatures from PNF-404 instead.

The President's wife is quite a sassy woman and the "real boss" of Hocotate Freight. She reveals to constantly be yelling at her husband for loafing around. At one point, she sends the President mail stating that his report is wrong. She also reveals that the ship sends her a report at the end of every day, and says that the ship knows that she is the real boss.

During the President's absence, she begins turning the company around for the better. Once all the treasures are retrieved, she thanks her husband and says she sees him "in a new light". This implies that she is very responsible about work.

Alph's family

Alph has only one known important member in his family: his grandfather, Drake. Alph talks about him sometimes while aboard the S.S. Drake. He also has many siblings.

Drake

Very little is known about Drake. All that is known about him is that he designed the S.S. Drake and that he knows about some of Hocotate's history. Other than that, it is said that Alph spent a lot of time with his grandfather as a child. As a result, he looks up to Drake as a role model. Where Alph's comments on the Hermit Crawmad say "Although I have heard that an intentional flaw lends a certain charm to one's creations", the Japanese version reveals this was something Alph heard from his grandfather.

The S.S. Drake's trophy in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U mentions that the name "Drake" may remind players of the second man to circumnavigate the globe, Sir Francis Drake.

Because Drake's name begins with D, some fans believe that this would be the name of the fourth playable leader, had the developers not cut the character off during development.

Alph's siblings

Alph also has twelve older brothers, one older sister, and one younger brother. Alph mentioned how his older sister used to always share food with him even when it was scarce. Other than that, Alph doesn't talk much about them. It is implied that Yorke from Pikmin 4 is one of Alph's siblings.

Brittany's family

Brittany also has only one known member of her family – Auntie Bea. However, Nelle is implied to be a relative of hers.

Auntie Bea

Auntie Bea is Brittany's aunt. She is known for her famous fruit pastries on Koppai. Auntie Bea's hair is similar to the color of the Dusk Pustules, and in Brittany's notes on the same fruit, she states that to be a "rebellious streak", implying most Koppaites don't have that color of hair naturally. Auntie Bea's nose is similar in shape to the Tremendous Sniffer, and she is the envy of the family because of her nose. She treated Brittany with lots of love, giving her sweets and such, and Brittany likes her because of it.

Charlie's pets

None of Charlie's blood relatives are ever named, but two pets are mentioned. Alph also mentions that he's not sure if Charlie is married or not.

Elizabeth

In a few check ins, Alph asks Charlie who "Elizabeth" is, Charlie explains that Elizabeth is his pet duck with which he shares a strong bond with and that he considers her his soulmate. This pet is directly stated to be a duck, so together with Charlie's rubber ducky and Brittany's mention of geese, Koppai must have animal species that closely resembles those of Earth.

Charlie's dog

In the US version, Brittany's notes on the Dawn Pustules imply that Charlie may have a pet dog. Charlie is apparently said to have painted his dog to match his favorite color – the shade of green seen on his spacesuit. In the European version, there is no mention of a dog at all.

The Shepherd family

The Shepherd family history in Pikmin 4 contains the different captains of the Rescue Corps over the generations, all being related to Erma Shepherd.

Spammers

An example of a spam icon from the Pikmin 2 mail.

There are five characters in Pikmin 2 that send spam e-mails after the debt has been repaid. The icons for these characters merely show a silhouette, leaving their appearances mostly unknown. They all attempt to advertise one thing or another, and include a real-world Internet address in their messages, for the players themselves to visit.

Spam 1

The first spam message the player will receive is from a person who is apparently very lonely and wants a friend to listen to their troubles. Based on the shady outline, this character is probably female.

Spam 2

The second spam message is from someone talking about saving tons of Pokos through bargains and cut-rate prices. Olimar's son also mentions that he received a similar message, and asks Olimar if he should send his bonus check.

Spam 3

The third spam message is received after Louie has been recovered. The sender talks about some device that accordingly "slices... dices... plays videogames... sends mail... wraps gifts" and "cures snoring".

Spam 4
