While on an interstellar vacation, [[Captain Olimar]] puts the [[S.S. Dolphin]] on autopilot and stands up from the control panel to make a cup of tea. He fails to notice a meteor, which hits the S.S. Dolphin and sends it plummeting to the surface of a [[PNF-404|nearby planet]]. During the chaos, Olimar was thrown against the control panel, and blacked out. He awakens on the surface of the planet, and Captain Olimar discovers that 30 of the Dolphin's ship parts were scattered around the planet. Fortunately, his life-support system built into his suit was unharmed, but the remaining battery power would only last him for 30 days. After exploring the [[The Impact Site|area]], Olimar finds a dormant [[Onion]]. When Olimar approaches the Onion, it seems to awaken, and spits out a seed. Olimar plucks the seed, and he discovers the [[Pikmin]], specifically [[Red Pikmin]]. He utilizes their abilities to get back the [[Main Engine]], which allows him to pilot the S.S. Dolphin once again. During his expedition on the planet, Olimar comes across [[Yellow Pikmin|Yellow]] and [[Blue Pikmin]], in that order. He also manages to retrieve all of his missing ship parts, and blasts off back to Hocotate. | While on an interstellar vacation, [[Captain Olimar]] puts the [[S.S.

It is not known which ending is the canon one, but it could be considered to be the one where he gathers all ship parts, given that in ''Pikmin 2'', Olimar has brought a souvenir home for his [[Minor characters#Olimar's son|son]], something that only likely happened after the collection of the Secret Safe, which is even implied by Olimar himself.{{cite quote|{{Notes:Secret Safe/monolog}}|Captain Olimar|[[Olimar's monologs|a monolog]] about finding the [[Secret Safe]]}} In addition, it's revealed that Olimar's wife eventually finds a "secret cash stash"{{cite quote|Today, as I cleaned the bedroom, I found your secret cash stash. With thanks, I'll accept it gladly. I'll just pretend I didn't see that journal of yours...|[[Olimar's wife]]|a piece of [[mail]]}}, which can only be assumed to be the Secret Safe. The ship's appearance in ''Pikmin 2'' also supports this, as the antenna on the top of the Dolphin isn't bent and the lights on the sides are purple, which is only possible if Olimar collected the Secret Safe. | It is not known which ending is the canon one, but it could be considered to be the one where he gathers all ship parts, given that in ''Pikmin 2'', Olimar has brought a souvenir home for his [[Minor characters#Olimar's son|son]], something that only likely happened after the collection of the Secret Safe, which is even implied by Olimar himself.{{cite quote|{{Notes:Secret Safe/monolog}}|Captain Olimar|[[Olimar's monologs|a monolog]] about finding the [[Secret Safe]]}} In addition, it's revealed that Olimar's wife eventually finds a "secret cash stash"{{cite quote|Today, as I cleaned the bedroom, I found your secret cash stash.
