Nolimar (also known as Solimar or Lolimar) refers to the practice of using Olimar without any Pikmin, either due to losing Pikmin from being KO'd or by choosing to play the entire match with no Pikmin.

Playing without Pikmin results in Olimar having no smash attacks, no grabs or throws and no fully functional special moves. His offensive powers are limited to his A-Button combo, Forward-tilt, Up-tilt, Down-tilt, Dash attack and his Final Smash. Regardless of his drastically lower options, Olimar's tilts are capable of KO'ing opponents at very high percentages, and Pikmin Order's launch resistance is intact to aid in surviving, so it is possible, albeit very difficult, to defeat opponents as Nolimar.

Strangely, Nolimar's recovery using Pikmin Chain is better than his recovery with 1 or 2 Pikmin, as Nolimar would do a small jump, and can grab the ledge, But when the Pikmin Chain has one or two Pikmin, Olimar cannot grab the ledge.

Note that at the start of a match, Olimar, would automatically pluck 3 Pikmin during his entrance, so to play as Nolimar, the player would have to use Pikmin Throw to throw the Pikmin off of the stage, have the Pikmin attacked, or to have Olimar be KO'd, as when Olimar returns, he would have no Pikmin with him.

Nolimar is a popular character in Gag matches.
