In {{p2}}, it is a dull red-colored | In {{p2}}, it is a dull red-colored planet that possesses a pair of two intersecting planetary rings. In {{hp}}, although it still has rings, it has a brighter blue and green color scheme with white clouds – looking rather more like Earth. These clouds can also be seen from the planet's surface in ''Pikmin 2''. Its exact location in the universe has yet to be specified, though it most likely takes place in a different star system from ours, as an incredibly bright star can be seen behind it. It is also said to be quite close to Koppai. In [[Olimar's voyage log]], he explains that his family is probably gazing up at the planet's "pale red moon".{{cite quote|Looking from this planet into the skies above, I see the pale white moon floating overhead. It brings to mind memories of the moon from back home. I bet that even now my wife and children are sitting at home, gazing up at our pale red moon... Hang on, dear ones! Your Olimar will return some day!|[[Captain Olimar]]|a [[Olimar's voyage log|voyage log]]}} This moon, along with a grayish moon can be seen in the endings of ''Pikmin 2'' and ''Hey! Pikmin''. Again ''Hey! Pikmin'' depicts them with much brighter colors, with the gray moon now being blue (possibly implying water is there) with white clouds. Stars are visible from the planet's surface during the daytime, indicating a very transparent atmosphere. | ||
The green and blue coloring of the planet in ''Hey! Pikmin'' likely indicates it is covered with plant life and water. However, what is seen on its surface indicates at least part of the planet is desert-like, though [[the President]] notes a location known as the "Hocotate Swamp".{{cite quote|I have a regrettable message. I have been caught. If I don't pay off the company debt right away, I'm to be buried in Hocotate Swamp. It's bleak here... Hurry!|The President|a [[Mail|letter]]}} [[Hocotate Freight]] appears to be in or near a built-up area, which suggests that at least some of Hocotate may be densely populated. Olimar's wife mentions "hot springs" in one of her [[Mail|letters]], indicating that geothermally heated water exists in the planet's crust. Olimar's family also mentions a beach, suggesting that the planet has at least one ocean. | |||
