The Olimarnite Shell may be an ammonite fossil judging by its shape and name. It was named after Captain Olimar. It is found in the Bulblax Kingdom on Sublevel 3, and it is completely buried in the ground, so White Pikmin are needed to dig it up. It may also be a reference to the Pokémon Omanyte.

Olimar's Journal

"This fossil was dug up deep underneath the Awakening Wood. Given its shape and morphology, I suspect that it is some kind of prehistoric sea creature. If so, it's feasible to say that the whole region was once situated on the ocean floor."

Sales Pitch

"A fossil of an ancient sea inhabitant. It is most desirable despite its unappealing name. (Captain Olimar named it without consulting anyone. He could have at least named it after his faithful spaceship...)"
