Eli

Eli is a new character introduced in Pikmin E and is the second playable leader in the game. He first appears in the introduction sequence, when he collides with Captain Olimar's spaceship at a high speed. He is a humanoid that resembles a feline, and his perk is jumping.

NOTE: After the game is completed, a Pikipedia entry for Eli and notes from Olimar and Louie will be acessible, however Olimar's contains huge plot spoilers.
