Hocotate Freight
Hocotate Freight, or Hocotate Transportation Company, is the company Captain Olimar works for. Its president is known only as the President of Hocotate Freight. Its only known employees are Olimar and Louie. It is based on planet Hocotate.
Financial Status
Hocotate Freight was doing okay finacially, until Louie lost his cargo of Golden Pikpik carrots to a so-called "space bunny" while Olimar was on vacation, forcing Hocotate Freight to take out a loan of spirit crushing proportions. Hocotate Freight sold Olimar's ship while he was away to pay for the debt, but still leaving them with a debt of 10,100 pokos!
Olimar's return
As soon as Olimar returned from the planet of the Pikmin, he is informed of the situation by the President of Hocotate Freight, and of the selling of his ship which is then confiscated. In shock, Olimar drop the bottle cap he was holding, and it rolls over to a rusty old ship, causing the ship's sensors to go wild, and the ship then says the bottle cap is worth 100 pokos! Olimar is then ordered by the president to go back to the pikmin planet with Louie to find enough treasure to cover the now 10,000-poko debt.
