Hocotate is shown to be commercialized; it makes use of the [[Poko]], a small coin that resembles those from the [[mariowiki:Mario (series)|''Mario'' series]]. Items from [[PNF-404]] are considered extremely valuable [[treasure]]s worth a particularly large amount of Pokos, which enables Olimar and Louie to pay off their company's debt of 10,100 Pokos. (For comparison, 100 Pokos is "more than a year's salary", according to the president in the introduction cutscene of ''Pikmin 2''.) A mayor of Hocotate is alluded in [[Olimar's notes]] once, though his status in Hocotatian government is unknown.{{cite quote|{{notes:Pilgrim Bulb/journal}}|[[Captain Olimar]]|Olimar's notes on the [[Pilgrim Bulb]]}} The president also mentions that | Hocotate is shown to be commercialized; it makes use of the [[Poko]], a small coin that resembles those from the [[mariowiki:Mario (series)|''Mario'' series]].

{{cite quote|When I am surrounded by legions of Pikmin, I always picture the face of my boss, the head of Pilot Union. He was always so sharp-tongued with his orders, but I imagine he must have felt much the way that I do now.
