(Removed repeated information, then adjusted surrounding sentences to still flow well. Removed subjective claims on his personality. Added sources to a few claims - sources are still needed in many areas though. Also changed the caption for an image to be more accurate.)

In ''[[Pikmin 3]]'', Louie makes his first appearance in a transmission received by the [[Leader|Koppaite explorers]], who mistakenly assume him to be Olimar and set out to find him. After "rescuing" him from [[Scornet Maestro|a swarm of Scornets]], the Koppaites take him back to the [[S.S. Drake]], and the ship labels him "Hocotatian". They then discover he has gone into a forced sleep caused by his suit; when he wakes up, he lands the Drake in the [[Garden of Hope]] while the crew sleeps, and flees, stealing their juice supplies and the [[Captain Charlie|captain]]'s rubber duck in the process.

Physically, Louie has a single yellow tuft of hair and light yellow (beige) spacesuit, decorated with blue lines and blue gloves, like Olimar's spacesuit. Unlike Olimar, Louie is slightly lankier, his nose is rounder and slightly smaller, and his head is pear-shaped.

He is known to have a very ravenous appetite, and has prepared [[Louie's notes|many recipes]] for creatures on PNF-404. He is even brave enough to taste creatures that may be inedible to his species in his efforts to widen his cooking recipes. His notes on the [[Iridescent Glint Beetle]] suggest he wants to start his own cooking show, called "The Insect Gourmet!"

Louie has shown multiple selfish behaviors throughout the series, which is mainly played up for drama in the story-lines, but for comedic effect in his cooking notes. In ''Pikmin 2'', it is suggested that Louie controlled the Titan Dweevil that attacked the explorers through its entire fight. In ''Pikmin 3'', Louie steals the entirety of the Koppaite explorers' food supply after being recovered, nearly starving them to death.
