Is Olimar in Pikmin 4?

We do not know if Olimar will be in Pikmin 4 as we have not seen the captain, his ship, or had a mention of him. The teaser for Pikmin 4 was brief and showed little, so he may return. In fact, Olimar has appeared in all Pikmin games, so we will likely get to play as Olimar again.
