Captain Olimar (BlueKraid)

Captain Olimar (Japanese: キャプテン・オリマー Kyaputen Orimā) is a well-known space captain from planet Hocotate and the main recurring protagonist of the Pikmin series. Captain Olimar has a wife, two children, and a pet dog-like creature named Bulblie, all of whom he supports by working for the interplanetary delivery company Hocotate Freight. One day, when he was searching for a vacation spot a meteorite struck his ship, the S.S. Dolphin, and he crash-landed on an uncharted planet home to plant-like creatures named Pikmin. With help from the aforementioned Pikmin, he was able to gather all the parts of his broken ship and return back home. He is also a good friend and partner of Louie.
Captain Olimar is voiced by composer Kazumi Totaka. This is a relatively unknown fact, as Olimar often does not speak during the events of the games themselves. Within supplementary material, such as the bonus Expedition Logs for Pikmin 3 and the Pikmin shorts, Totaka portrays Olimar with a surprisingly-deep voice that often shocks fans. Also shocking is despite his somewhat professional and serious demeanour in canon. At home with his family and in fanon he has a fun happy go lucky and off the wall silly demeanour and a gross sense of humour. His species, Hocotates are known for having large bulbous noses and unfortunately can produce enormous amounts of nasal mucus or “snot” much to everyone’s disgust but Olimar’s disgusting joy as he uses it to glue or web people up. Especially when he is acting like a baby.
It is implied that Billy from Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy is a Hocotate. However this is impossible as Hocotates are only three quarters of an inch tall and oxygen is toxic to them.
Hocotates are almost entirely vegan except Louie, as they subsist on golden Pik Pik carrots and other vegetables. However Louie writes Captain logs of recipes involving creatures he encounters on the Pikmin Planet. He even writes how tasty he found them. Hocotates also really like pie for some reason.
Hocotates are all universally terrified of clowns. Probably because clowns from the movie Killer Klowns from outer space invaded them once. It is best not to mention clowns as they tend to start screaming “Destroy us all!” repeatedly. Hocotates firmly believe you can repel clowns by wearing tangelos. Because tangelos mess with the clown’s equilibrium. Oh and they must be tangelos, not oranges!
As well as his species crippling coulrophobia (fear of clowns), Captain Olimar suffers from Trypophobia, fear of small holes in a texture or surface. As a result he is repulsed by and frightened of Swiss cheese.
