Alph

Template:Infobox leaderAlph (アルフ) is one of three explorers in Pikmin 3. He is the blue-suited captain that has teal hair similar to Captain Olimar's in shape, an average sized nose, and freckles on his cheeks. His eyes are always open, much like when other characters like Olimar or Louie are surprised. He is the engineer of the"S.S. Drake", the group's spaceship. He is bright and positive in character. He looks up to Charlie for some reason.

Trivia

• Alph was the only character playable in the E3 2012 Pikmin 3 demo.

• Alph is also short for Alpha, the term used for the letter A in the phoenetic alphabet. This makes sense as Charlie is also used for C in the military alphabet, also the initial of his name is the same letter of his prototype name (Character A), just like Charlie and Brittany.
• Alph is the Technical expert of the crew,which is explained by his grandfather designing the SS Drake.
