The '''Coppeller''' ({{j|ヘソクリムシ|Hesokuri Mushi|Stash Bug}}) is an [[enemy]] found in ''[[Hey! Pikmin]]''. It is a small quadrupedal insectoid creature with flower petal-like wings that rotate like a helicopter's blades. It has large red eyes, a trait common to all [[scarpanid]]s, two tiny antennae, and has a light green spot where its "propeller" part is attached. It has four dark green claws on each of its limbs, allowing the creature have a good grip on the objects it holds. The creature's whole body is green, and is about half the height of [[Captain Olimar]]. However, its propeller makes up most of it, so including that it's nearly the same height as the captain.

{{Guide}}
Coppellers can be killed with a single well-timed Pikmin throw.


While Coppellers cannot directly kill Pikmin, any Pikmin they spawn carrying will be considered killed if they aren't rescued before their captor flies away.
Coppellers can be killed with a single well-timed Pikmin throw.  


A Coppeller may appear in the [[Central Pikmin Park]] if there are no Pikmin in the area. This specimen cannot harm or capture Pikmin in any way, but it does carry a [[Sparklium Seed]]. Pikmin can be sent to the area to shoo away the Coppeller, causing it to leave the Seed behind and give you some free Sparklium.
While Coppellers cannot directly kill Pikmin, any Pikmin they spawn carrying will be considered killed if they aren't rescued before their captor flies away.

==Naming==
{{naming
|common    = Coppeller. It is a combination of "helicopter" and "propeller", coming from the way it flies with a propeller.  
|jpcommon  = {{j|ヘソクリムシ|Hesokuri Mushi}}. It translates to "Stash Bug", coming from the way it stashes various objects, and how it is very bug-like in appearance.
|jpname    = {{j|ミドリヒメモチサライムシ|Midori Hime Sarai Mushi|Green Lesser Kidnapping Bug}}.
|scientific = ''Scarpanica viridelacus princeps'' in the American English version and ''Viridelacus princeps'' in the British English version. ''Scarpanica'' is the genus of most [[scarpanid]]s. ''Viridelacus'' is a combination of ''viridis'', Latin for green, and ''delacus'', perhaps derived from delicate, referring to the enemy dying in one hit. ''Princeps'' is Latin for leader.

*The French, German, and Italian localizations use the American name while both Spanish localizations use the European one.
*While this is a harmless enemy as it can't attack Pikmin directly, any Pikmin that start in their clutches can still die if not saved.
