In Olimar's notes on the [[Common Glowcap]], he mentions a chemical element called "Hocotatium 111", saying it is the reason for the [[plant]]'s luminescence. However, [[Olimar's notes]] in ''[[Pikmin 2]]'' [[Mistake|strangely]] say that the technology behind a light bulb (the [[Stellar Orb]]) and a match (the [[Flame of Tomorrow]]) is completely unknown to his people.

Some Hocotatians also seem to study in a degree of paleontology, the study of fossil remains and plants.{{cite quote|{{notes:Paleontology Series/series}}|The [[Hocotate ship]]|its announcement for the [[Paleontology Series]].}} This is later supported in ''Hey! Pikmin'', where Olimar mentions dinosaurs. It is not completely clear that there are paleontologists on Hocotate, or another planet. However, since all treasures in ''Pikmin 2'' are to be sold back on Hocotate, it is most likely that Hocotatian paleontologists are the audience they are targeting. A similar field of science is xenoarcheology, the study of extraterrestrial and alien remains. It is mentioned in ''Hey! Pikmin'', when Olimar finds remains that he mistakes for alien life on [[PNF-404]].{{cite quote|{{Notes:Herbivore Molars/heypikmin}}|[[Captain Olimar]]|Olimar's notes on the [[Herbivore Molars]]}} This may suggest Hocotatians have explored other planets where they have found alien remnants. Botany also seems to be a study in Hocotate, based on the ship's announcement for the [[Xenoflora Series]].{{cite quote|{{Notes:Xenoflora Series/series}}|The [[Hocotate ship]]|its announcement for the Xenoflora Series.}}

===Transportation===
===Transportation===
Hocotations also have knowledge of some simple transportation, such as bicycles.{{cite quote|{{Notes:Ornamental Cycle/heypikmin}}|[[Captain Olimar]]|His notes on the [[Ornamental Cycle]]}} Another log also reveals that he has rode some kind vehicle with his wife, although it is unclear what it is.{{cite quote|{{notes:Dual Wheeler/heypikmin}}|[[Captain Olimar]]|his notes on the [[Dual Wheeler]]}} However, it seems like the vehicle he is speaking of has two wheels, as the seemingly two-wheeled treasure he picked up reminds him of the ride.

In another one of Olimar’s notes, he mentions a toy car, so it can be assumed that actual cars exist on Hocotate as well.{{cite quote|{{notes:Twisty Pick/heypikmin}}|[[Captain Olimar]]|his notes on the [[Twisty Pick]]}}

===Entertainment===
Along with the toy mentioned previously, movies{{cite quote|{{notes:Metamorphocistern/heypikmin}}|[[Captain Olimar]]|his notes on the [[Metamorphocistern]]}} and video games{{cite quote|{{notes:Repair Juggernaut/journal}}|[[Captain Olimar]]|his notes on the [[Repair Juggernaut]].}} seem to be common things used for recreation. Additionally, nearly the entire [[Dream Series]] is ment to be sold to Hocotate as toys, such as the [[Favorite Gyro Block]], which is targeted for toy makers.{{cite quote|{{notes:Favorite Gyro Block/sale}}|[[The Hocotate Ship]]|It's sale's pitch for the [[Favorite Gyro Block]].}} It is likely there are factories that help produce these toys.
