The Flatterchuck (ビックリトバシ?, lit.: "Surprising Launcher") is an enemy found in Hey! Pikmin. At first it looks like a stone platform with eyes, roughly four times wider than Olimar and it appears to have moss growing on it. When stepped on it leaps straight upward, using insectoid legs.

Behavior
The Flatterchuck lies flat on the ground, with its eyes closed until Pikmin or Captain Olimar walk onto it. It will blink breifly and then launch its body upwards, sending anything standing on it up into the air. It will come back to it's original state, and will repeat the process if something steps on it again.
