| | '''Alph''' is one of the three [[leader|leaders]] in [[Pikmin 3]]. He visits [[PNF-404]], along with [[Brittany]] and his captain, [[Charlie]] in search of food for the hungry planet of [[Koppai]]. Alph is the mechanic of the [[S.S. Drake]]. He is very interested in technological devices and is a very capable engineer that configures objects found on PNF-404 for the crew to use on their quest for food. He has a blue tuft of hair and wears a spacesuit with blue highlights. Like the other two members of his team, he is from Koppai. |

| |name = Alph
| | When the crew first attempts to land on [[PNF-404]], they encounter difficulties and all three members are ejected from the [[S.S. Drake]]. They all crash-land in different areas. Alph happens to fall into the [[Tropical Wilds]], the same area in which the Drake also landed with its auto-pilot. With the help of some local Pikmin, he builds a bridge and is able to reunite with his [[KopPad]] and the Drake. It is then up to him to rescue his coworkers by flying to the other areas with the Drake. |

He is the blue-suited [[captain]] that has teal hair similar to [[Captain Olimar|Captain Olimar's]] in shape, an average sized nose, and freckles on his cheeks. His eyes are always open, much like when other characters like Olimar or [[Louie]] are surprised. He is the engineer of the [[S.S. Drake]], the group's spaceship, which his Grandfather designed. He is bright and positive in character, compared to most captains. He is very bright and greatly respects [[Captain Charlie]].

| |
| *''"There! That's all of it!"''
| |
| *''"So their Onion was trapped inside that crystal."''
| |

| |
| ;Data file on the way to the mysterious signal
| |
| *''"Huh? Looks like there's a data file here too."''
| |
| *''"...Hocotate? I think that's near Koppai."''
| |
| *''"If I recall correctly, it's a planet populated by treasure-loving vegetable eaters."''

| ;Obtaining Data Glutton
| |
| *''Drake: "Recovering..."''
| |
| *''Alph: "We're receiving a transmission from the Drake!"''
| |
| *''Drake: "Analysing recovered item!"''
| |
| *''Drake: "An ancient communication device used on this planet."''
| |
| *''Drake: "It contains technology unknown to Koppai and is emitting a signal even now."''
| |
| *''Alph: "If I integrate this device into the Drake's communication system, I should be able to boost our signal's strength!"''
| |
| *''Alph: "Looks like it's going to be an all nighter for me!"''
| |
| ;More than 100 Pikmin in the field
| |
| *''"Just as the number of Pikmin in the field reached 100, the Onion stopped spitting out seeds."''
| |
| *''"The Pikmin inside the Onion seem to be increasing in number."''
| |
| *''"Apparently, once the surface population reached 100, new Pikmin are born inside the Onion."''
| |
| *''"This means that a maximum of 100 Pikmin can be active outside the Onion at any one time."''
| |
| ;Onions merge
| |
| *''"Wow! They merged!"''
| |
| *''"Well, well... So two Onions can combine into one..."''

| |
| *''Alph: "I've never tasted anything like it on Koppai!"''
| |
| *''Brittany: "There's got to be more where that came from. Let's focus our efforts on finding as much as we can!"''
| |
| *''Alph: "But don't forget the cosmic drive key! It's no use finding fruit if we can't get it back to Koppai."''
| |
| *''Brittany: "Right! Gathering food and locating the cosmic drive key. That should be more than enough to keep us busy."''
| |
| *''Alph: "And, err, don't forget the Captain. We need to rescue him as well!"''
| |
| *''Brittany: "The Captain? Oh yeah. He almost slipped my mind."''
| |
| *''Brittany: "Well I guess we can pick him up along the way."''
| |
| ;Regarding the mysterious signal in the [[Distant Tundra]]
| |
| *''Brittany: "What's that signal coming from over there?"''
| |
| *''Alph: "It has to be the Captain! Let's hurry up and rescue him!"''

| *''Brittany: "Got it!"''
| |
| *''Brittany: "This place is absolutely freezing! If we stay too long, I'm afraid we're going to die of exposure."''
| |
| *''Brittany: "That is, if we don't die of starvation first."''
| |
| *''Alph: "Hey Brittany!"''
| |
| *''Alph: "Did you find something interesting over there?"''

| ==Trivia==
| |
| * Alph was the only character playable in the E3 2012 ''[[Pikmin 3]]'' demo.
| |
| * Alph is also short for Alpha, the term used for the letter A in the phoenetic alphabet. This makes sense as Charlie is also used for C in the military alphabet, also the initial of his name is the same letter of his prototype name (Character A), just like [[Charlie]] and [[Brittany]].
| |
| *Alph is the Technical expert of the crew, which is explained by his grandfather designing the SS Drake.
| |
| *According to Brittany's fruit notes, Alph is allergic to [[Heroine's Tear]] (a mango), and [[Scaly Custard]] (An Avocado).
| |
| *Alph grew up with his grandfather, Drake.
| |
| *Alph has 12 older brothers, a big sister and a little brother.
| |
| *Alph is called Alphie by Brittany on multiple occasions, possibly meaning that Brittany cares about Alph.
