After Olimar is rescued by the Koppaites, he is soon sent back to [[PNF-404]] to recover the Hocotate Ship alongside Louie. They find it in the Garden of Hope, and begin collecting its scattered parts. These parts include the [[Main Engine]], [[Chronos Reactor]], [[Repair-type Bolt]], [[Analog Computer]], and [[Nova Blaster]]. After the repairs, Olimar and Louie return to Hocotate, the Pikmin watching the Hocotate Ship fly away.

The Ship is not seen or mentioned directly in ''Pikmin 4'', although Schnauz recites various sales pitches from ''Pikmin 2'', and says he has heard the pitch for the Cupid's Grenade somewhere before. It is said that a popular treasure naming AI was co-authored by a famous treasure appraiser, likely being Schnauz. Schnauz also says the Citrus Lump's shape reminds him of a colleague, and as Olimar says it resembles the President's head in ''PIkmin 2'', it can be inferred that Schnauz and the President authored the Hocotate Ship's naming AI together.
