| A guide released by Prima.
| A guide released by Prima. Contains exclusive notes from Olimar and an exclusive "Denizens of a Distant Planet: A Field Guide", which is mostly the same as the Player's Guide Field Guide with a few differences. This includes some changes to a few entries as well and four new entries about the [[Dwarf Bulborb]], [Dwarf Bulbear]], [[Candypop Buds]] and the [[Pellet Posies]]. These are apparently the original notes that Captain Olimar created and that the zoologists would later base their notes on, however they appear to be edited as every entry using the "technical names" of the enemy instead of Olimar's original names. The Field Guide's "cover" states, "Captain Olimar's sketches and notes appear courtesy of the Hocotate Freight Company. All Rights Reserved." It also states that it is "By Captain Olimar" on the front cover as well, implying that it was an actual book that Olimar had released.
