The '''Flatterchuck''' ({{j|ビックリトバシ|Bikkuri Tobashi|Surprising Launcher}}) is an [[enemy]] found in {{hp}}. At first it looks like a stone platform with eyes, roughly four times wider than [[Captain Olimar]] and it appears to have moss growing on it. When stepped on it leaps straight upward, using insectoid legs.

The Flatterchuck lies flat on the ground, with its eyes closed until Pikmin or [[Captain Olimar]] walk onto it. It will blink briefly and then launch its body upwards, sending anything standing on it up into the air. It will come back to its original state, and will repeat the process if something steps on it again. It takes roughly two seconds from the moment something steps on it to the moment it springs up.
