Name in each language

Don Bergman

Hey, the name's Don Bergman. I'm just here fighting the good fight on behalf of the little guys.

Oh! We've already met, haven't we?
Sorry about that!

With me, you've got a friend for life,
Oatchi. Can't wait to see where the future takes us!

You've got some good eyes on you, pal.
Just think of all the things those eyes have seen.

Once I learned about Olimar's Voyage
Log, I changed course and flew to this planet right away.

Then, right before we landed, the ship became inoperable. All I could do was make a quick escape.

I don't know what I would've done after the crash if not for all the survival training I've had over the years.

As long as you've got food, water, and a safe place to sleep, the rest'll work out.
Doesn't hurt to have a pal with you too.

That guy who stole the juice... Where'd he run off to? I'd like to get that juice back sooner than later.

Thinking of that bittersweet, slightly sour smell... Just remembering it makes me drool!

Apparently, Yorke started sending money back home to his family even before he became a treasure hunter.

That's just what you'd expect from the oldest of 15 siblings. There's more to that ol' softy than meets the eye.

Thing is, us Koppaites eat a lot of fruit.
We can't eat most of that other stuff.

Well, I guess we could eat it. Probably more accurate to say we just don't like the way it tastes.

We were searching for treasure as part of an effort to save Koppai from an impending food shortage.

Our plan was to sell those treasures to buy food, and then send it back home.

I've asked Nelle what she plans to do with all the treasure we find. It's interesting.

She said she'll sell it and use the profits to invest in promising business ventures.

Something to do with plants or cultivation,
I think. Didn't really understand it much, to be honest.

Seeing how efficient you two are when you're on the job reminds me of the days when I was training to be a ranger.

But Ducky, on the other hand... Nah, that's an old story. I'll leave it there.

You know, we keep on selling treasures and buying up food...but is that doing anything to solve the bigger issue?

We need to do something big—something fundamental to save our home for real.

Apparently other planets have sent research task forces made up of brilliant scientists to this place.

Speaking of scientists, I've heard that
Nelle has a relative who's a botanist.

I'm not all that into treasures myself, but sometimes you come across one that just looks so delicious...

I've spent a few nights tossing and turning over whether or not to sell or eat a particular treasure.

Watching you has taught me just how important those Dandori and planning skills really are.

Maybe what us Koppaites need isn't some new planet with lots of food...

Maybe we just need to be proactive and methodical about this thing. It could be we just have to try growing our own food.
