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

Without Pikmin, Olimar only has six attacks: his [[neutral attack]]'s two hits, his three [[tilt]]s, his [[dash attack]], and his [[neutral aerial]]. Nolimar is capable of racking up damage with most of these moves, with his foward tilt and dash attack being his "KO" moves. Combined with the hop from a blank [[Pikmin Chain]] and the [[launch resistance]] of [[Pikmin Order]], it is possible to win a match as Nolimar despite his pitiful KO power and major problems with [[stale moves]]; of course this is incredibly difficult.

Note that at the start of a match, Olimar will automatically [[Pikmin Pluck|pluck]] three Pikmin during his entrance, so to intentionally play as Nolimar, the player will have to use [[Pikmin Throw]] or his [[forward smash]] to throw the Pikmin off of the stage, have the Pikmin attacked, have Olimar KO'd, or simply choose to never use Pikmin-based attacks.
