Olimar is joined by [[pikipedia:Louie|Louie]] in the second game. During the events of ''Pikmin'', Louie was on a delivery and was entrusted with a load of [[pikipedia:Pikpik carrot|golden Pikpik carrots]]. [[pikipedia:Cutscenes#Louie's' Dark Secret|On his way, however, he got hungry and ate the whole load]], claiming a "ravenous space bunny" ate them. Louie then returned to Hocotate and falsified his report to the [[pikipedia:President of Hocotate Freight|President]], forcing Hocotate Freight into bankruptcy. In the beginning of ''Pikmin 2'', Olimar returned from the [[pikipedia:Planet of the Pikmin|Distant Planet]] only to find that the company was 10,100 [[pikipedia:Poko|pokos]] (the universe's currency) in debt; upon his return, the company was forced to sell the Dolphin after he had spent days repairing it. The shock of the revelation of the company's fate causes Olimar to drop a bottle cap that he brought home for his son. However, an old, used Hocotate Freight Ship, analyses it, and discovers that the piece is worth 100 pokos; when the President learns about how there's more objects on the Distant Planet, he makes Olimar and Louie return there in the Hocotate Freight Ship to gather [[pikipedia:Treasure Hoard|treasure]] to pay off the debt. After obtaining 10,000 pokos of treasure, Olimar accidentally leaves the Distant Planet without Louie, forcing Olimar to team up with the President to save him.

Olimar is based on Mario, as he has a similar nose, and his name, prior to translation from Japanese to English "''Orima''", is "''Mario''" backwards in Japanese when written in kanji. Likewise, the lankier Louie, whose Japanese name is "''Loojie'' (''Lugii'')" is derived from [[Luigi]] in both name and body proportion.
