Captain Olimar hails from the planet {{s|pikipedia|Hocotate}}. As a Hocotatian, Olimar's appearance is largely humanoid, yet displays a number of distinct traits: he is extremely minuscule in size (being ≈1.9 cm, ≈0.75 in tall), has a large head-to-body ratio, a bulbous nose, pointy ears, small tufts of hair and hyphen-shaped eyes that, during moments of surprise, comically bulge out and appear similar to human eyes. In regard to Olimar's personality, it is revealed via [[pikipedia:Olimar's journal|his journal]] that he is caring and dedicated to [[pikipedia:Olimar's family|his family]], while also having a taste for the arts and that he "always had a way with animals", the latter of which is evident with his {{s|pikipedia|Piklopedia}}. Olimar's name is a reference to [[Nintendo]]'s mascot [[Mario]]: his Japanese name, "''Orimā''", is "''Mario''" written backward in Japanese when written in kana. | Captain Olimar hails from the planet {{s|pikipedia|Hocotate}}.
