S.S. Dolphin

The Dolphin in Pikmin is the ship that Captain Olimar crashes on the unknown planet. Once you do, 30 of the ship's parts scatter a cross the land. You must then gather an army of Pikmin to find the pieces of the Dolphin and bring it back to the broken ship. Once you find all of the needed parts of the ship, you are free to go back to your home planet.

In Super Mario Galaxy for the Wii, the Dolphin makes a short cameo in the Space Junk Galaxy, though it has been enlarged.
