(Undid edit by Omega Tyrant:c'mon you know better than this, there could be a FS-using Olimar offscreen for all we know, and the move in Brawl is basically a bomb shaped like the ship)

The '''Hocotate Ship''' is [[Olimar]]'s current mode of transportation in the {{uv|Pikmin}} series. It is a two-person rocket ship coloured silver and magenta.


In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', the Hocotate Ship appears as part of Olimar's [[Final Smash]], [[End of Day]]. Olimar enters the ship at it launches above the stage as night falls, which causes several Bulborbs to damage the opponents, before falling back down onto the stage and exploding. The Hocotate Ship was also Olimar's means of transportation in the [[Subspace Emissary]], where he is presumed to have piloted it to enter [[Subspace]].

The Hocotate Ship first appears in ''Pikmin 2'', replacing the repossessed S.S. Dolphin from the previous game as Olimar's bases of operations on PNF-404. In addition to providing safety above the planet's surface at night for the explorers, it hosts Purple and White Pikmin, which have no Onions of their own, and dispatches its Research Pod to follow the group underground when necessary. The ship has a haughty personality and often berates Olimar and Louie for their incompetence.

===In the Subspace Emissary===
The Hocotate Ship was also Olimar's means of transportation in the [[Subspace Emissary]], where he is presumed to have piloted it to enter [[Subspace]]. The ship can be seen in the background of the [[Outside the Ancient Ruins]] level, and the first turquoise [[cube]] in that level will always drop the Hocotate Ship trophy.

The Hocotate Ship has been [https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYMHAAACAABnUYnYIoBCgw confirmed] to appear in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''. Its role in the game is currently unclear; while the related Miiverse post states it's a bomb shaped like the ship, the description matches its behaviour during End of Day, and so cannot be taken as confirmation of anything other than its presence in the game.
