By the time the [[Hero (Dragon Quest III)|Hero]] arrives in Jipang, the real Pimiko has been seemingly killed by the dragon [[Orochi]], who then assumed the role of Pimiko and ordered the villagers to sacrifice young women, ostensibly to appease the Orochi. | |||
In the Super Famicom and Gameboy Color remake, Pimiko can be found alive and well on the upper floor of Jipang's [[Treasures 'n' Trapdoors]] track that can only be unlocked via a wish granted by defeating [[Xenlon]] after finishing the main game. She seems to be wandering around aimlessly, and mentions that she's not quite sure what she's doing in such a place. As the Android/iOS version of the game does not feature TnT, Pimiko does not appear. | |||
===''[[Dragon Quest of the Stars]]''=== | |||
Pimiko's visage is fully illustrated as all NPCs appear with pictures to accompany their text box, and Orochi is spoken to before the fight. | |||
