Nolimar: Difference between revisions

{{cleanup}}

'''Nolimar''' refers to a fighting style in which one plays as [[Olimar (SSBB)|Olimar]] without using any [[Pikmin (species)|Pikmin]]. Nolimar can also refer to the character himself, such as in the context "I was playing as Nolimar," meaning "I was playing as Olimar with no Pikmin."

Although undeniably a less effective strategy than playing with Pikmin, it is not completely ineffective. Without Pikmin, Olimar is limited to only eight moves: his [[neutral attack]] combo; his [[forward tilt|forward]], [[down tilt|down]] and [[up tilt]]s; his [[neutral aerial]]; his [[dash attack]]; [[Pikmin Order|his down special]]; and [[End of Day|his Final Smash]]. Even with only these eight moves, Olimar can still KO opponents; his forward and down tilts have enough [[knockback]] to kill opponents with moderately high damage. His [[down special move]] can give him [[launch resistance]] if used at the right time, helping him to survive longer. His [[Final Smash]] is still immensely powerful. He can still use his up special move, but it only gives him a tiny hop.

Other names for this gameplay style as "Solimar", a combination of "solo" and "Olimar". "LOLimar" or "Lolimar" is also another way to refer to this strategy, a combination of the acronym "lol" (short for "laughing out loud") and "Olimar".
