In Pikmin: Triad War, the Human Quadrant Defense Grid, or HQDG, is the main force allied with Olimar.

After the conclusion of World War III, the surviving unaffiliated human population fled from the irradiated wasteland that was one called Earth and settled on and. The ruling government decided to establish the Human Quadrant Defense Grid in the year 2107 to ensure its people were not vulnerable to attack and to combat the Illuminati if they returned. In 2168, the Human Quadrant Defense Grid decided to bring the fight to the Illuminati, as it had not brought the fight to them even once. They discovered various small and large signs of the Illuminati's presence scattered throughout the quadrant. Most of the Illuminati operations they uncovered were heavily centered around gene-splicing projects. However, the projects didn't involve animals native to Earth; the Illuminati had gone one step beyond and were mixing the gene-splicing with their dimensional travel experiments.

After fighting the Illuminati and their Pokémorphs with the help of their own, the war seemed to come to a standstill. The Human Quadrant Defense Grid decided to sign a ceasefire treaty with the Illuminati in 2193. However, they still monitored the Illuminati's activity in case they tried to attack. Many rumors circulated, but they thought most of them were false or too crazy to work. This was until a division of the Human Quadrant Defense Grid which was stationed near PNF-404 learned of the Illuminati superweapon and that it was being constructed on the planet. They activated the cloaking device and entered the planet's atmosphere.
