Captain Olimar

**Captain Olimar** is the mascot and most recognizable face of the Pikmin series. An intrepid explorer of Planet Hocotate, he has been sent to the mysterious PNF-404 multiple times to seek its treasures for a multitude of reasons, mainly the goal of supporting his wife, child, and pet

## Background

While exploring the galaxy one day, Olimar's ship was struck by an asteroid, forcing the intrepid explorer to make an emergency landing on a nearby planet, PNF-404. Stranded, Olimar discovered the presence of small life-forms known as Pikmin. Learning that he could command them with his captain's whistle, Olimar utilized the Pikmin to gather his 30 ship parts to return to Hocotate. Later, he was sent back by the President to collect enough money to pay off the debt Louie created by eating the Golden Pikpik carrots. Finally, Olimar went back to the planet a third time, only to be captured by the Plasm Wraith, which is presumed to have caused all the ship crashes, and was saved by Alph, Brittany, and Charlie.

## Stats

**Attack Potency: Below Average Human Level** (Being smaller than a coin, Olimar's physical strikes are practically worthless in terms of dealing actual damage, although they can still harm creatures like Emperor Bulblax, who seem to be the size of a large toad. Can deal more damage with the Rocket Fist) | **Wall Level** (Rock Pikmin are capable of destroying tiny glass walls and glass crystals. Can defeat Bulborbs, who can do this. White Pikmin acid can do this), possibly **Star Level** with the Dolphin (The ship's Nova Blaster is stated to be able to blast stars to pieces) | **Universe Level** (Like all playable fighters, can damage Galeem and it's equal Dharkon, the former of which yielded these results with it's all-out attack at the beginning of World of Light, seeing as the light was stated to expand across the entire universe and engulf it in its entirety.)

**Speed: Supersonic** (Due to his tiny size, Olimar takes a long time to travel distances normal humans can cross in seconds. Can travel faster using the Rush Boots. Dodged electricity) | **Massively Faster than Light+** with the Dolphin (It can quickly fly through space and has been described as moving at "super light speed". Hocotate, where Olimar comes from, is likely in another solar system from PNF-404, which is actually a post-apocalyptic Earth, and Olimar regularly travels between the two with his ship) | **Beyond Massively Faster than Light** (Scaling to other playable fighters, such as Fox, who can pilot his Arwing that reaches these speeds, and Sheik, who tagged this same Arwing in the Subspace Emissary.)

**Durability: Wall Level** (Can take hits from bosses like the Bulborb, the Plasm Wraith, and the Titan Dweevil, who are the size of ordinary small animals) | **Universe Level** (Can take multiple hits from the likes of Galeem and Dharkon, as well as the other playable fighters)

**Hax:**Poison Manipulation (With White Pikmin), Space-Time Manipulation (With the Chronos Reactor), Gravity Manipulation (With the Gravity Jumper), Summoning (Due to his Captain's whistle), Stat Manipulation (With Ultra Spicy Spray), Petrification (With Ultra Bitter Spray)

**Intelligence**: **High** (Is an accomplished ship captain, was able to successfully lead the Pikmin through many dangerous territories to recover treasure and manage his time effectively in the span of a day's worth of time for about a month at a time)

**Stamina: High** (Can work for an entire day without stopping)

## Minor Feats

### Attack Potency/Strength

* Able to damage most enemies with his fists and defeat them after some time

### Speed/Reactions

* Able to pilot his ship effectively while flying through space

### Durability/Endurance

* Can tank fire, electricity, poison, and water from the Titan Dweevil
* Survived getting groped by the Plasm Wraith

### Skill/Intelligence

* Made it through three adventures on PNF-404 and lived to tell the tale
* Figured out the purpose of Pikmin onions and how to command Pikmin when first discovering them

## Powerscaling

Olimar is nowhere near the physically strongest creature in his universe by himself, relying mainly on his Pikmin to do the heavy lifting. However, he should scale to any feats done by Alph, Brittany, Charlie, Louie, and the President, and his Pikmin's feats should scale to the feats of Pikmin used by the captains in Pikmin 3 and vice versa. The Nova Blaster is by far the verse's strongest weapon and scalable to no one.

## Weaknesses

* Since he is very tiny, Olimar is going to struggle to hurt enemies
* Electricity one shots all his Pikmin barring yellows
* Olimar can only carry 100 Pikmin total into battle with him
* Without Pikmin, Olimar is rather useless
* Olimar needs to be in range of his Pikmin to whistle them back to him
* His ship can be damaged by hard enough impacts
