The Olimar's Log Category, is a category from the Exploration Notes menu in Pikmin 3. It holds 10 Data Files with journal entries from Captain Olimar's explorations. The files are scattered around the map and sometimes hidden.
American/NTSC Data Files
Journal Entry #1
"Curse that Hocotate ship. It may once have been a top-of-the-line vessel, but it's now an insult to my piloting. I can't wait to pay off that debt and get back in my beloved S.S. Dolphin. But that means I need to find something really valuable before I return home..." -Captain Olimar
- Area: Garden of Hope
- Location: In a small puddle inside the Quaggled Mireclop's arena. It should be near the Hocotate Ship.

Journal Entry #3
"My search for treasure continues with no luck. But I can't fly back home to Hocotate without procuring a few priceless artifacts! I'm sensing something valuable up ahead. But I'm also sensing danger. So if someone finds this data file, please send word to my son...that I didn't make it." -Captain Olimar
- Area: Garden of Hope
- Location: On the path to the Armored Mawdad's arena. The game will start a cutscene showing the explorers obtaining the file, so it is impossible to miss.
Journal Entry #4
"It has been so long. I hope my son and daughter back on Hocotate haven't forgotten about their father. Once my work here is done, I'm taking an extended holiday so we can take a space-cation. We might not have the budget to go far, but that's OK. As long as we're together." -Captain Olimar
- Area: Tropical Wilds

Journal Entry #5
"I found a key today. It says something about a cosmic drive on it. I doubt it's worth much, but it'll be a nice souvenir for my son if I ever get back to Hocotate.
