The Koppai-Hocotate Alliance (KHA for short) is a planetary alliance of Koppai's agriculture and Hocotate's freight company. The two planets allied with each other during the prologue of Pikmin Forever, because Hocotate was Koppai's largest investor in fruit exports. Eventually the alliance incites the events of Pikmin Forever by planning to colonize PNF-404, the world that had given the two planets so much success.
The alliance mutually solves the two initial problems of the individual planets: the business of fruit export and freighting brings Hocotate Freight out of debt, and Koppai's mass agriculture and sustainable practices keep its civilization thriving. While the alliance seeks to colonize PNF-404 mainly for its valuable resources, another principal interest of the two planets' communities is ecological research of the flora and fauna, particularly the Pikmin and Onions. To this end, the KHA Technology Sector outfits its research team with a devices called "Piktops", which can record observations about organisms and other findings on PNF-404.
The KHA Technology Sector is also responsible for a new directive for space exploration: robot-explorer relationships. The KHA developed DELTA, a self-aware robot companion for space exploration, and her maiden voyage is in the research vessel, the KHA Lander, that initially crash-lands in Pikmin Forever. Although it is not overtly revealed in the events of the story, the KHA plans to replace its space exploration team with robots in future missions, after they see how well she and Captain Olimar cooperate.
The KHA's leader is the former President of Hocotate Freight; he appears as an optional leader in Bingo Battle and the Sandbox.
