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. | The '''Coppeller''' ({{j|ヘソクリムシ|Hesokuri Mushi|Stash Bug}}) is an [[enemy]] found in ''[[Hey!
