S.S. Beagle

The S.S. Beagle is a ship owned by the Rescue Corps. It plays a similar role to that of the Hocotate ship pod, in that treasures are taken to it. Much like the Hocotate ship pod, the S.S. Beagle accompanies the player character, Oatchi and their Pikmin squad in caves, and even accepts enemy corpses as Sparklium sources. It also serves as the spot where Pikmin will bring castaways.

After a certain point in the story, the S.S. Beagle and the Onion travel together and can be told to land at designated locations called bases. When the day is over, the player character, Oatchi and their Pikmin enter their respective ships and return to the Rescue Command Post in time before night falls.

This ship has a white color with accents that are the same color as the spacesuit that the player chooses for their character to wear. Like major ships, it has the ability to fly and warp through space. It also has some Koppaite text on it, reading (HTCU or HTOU).

Trivia

 * The S.S. Beagle is the only spaceship, across the series, to not crash land on PNF-404 when entering its orbit. It is currently unknown the reason as to why.
