In Pikmin: Decayed Leaf
The Spiny Coppeller is a species of scarpanid in Pikmin: Decayed Leaf. The creature resembles its original incarnation in, although it may have different colored leaves that it uses for flight. The coppeller will fly around in a predetermined path; whether singular or in groups of up to ten. No Pikmin can attack a Coppeller, as they will be damaged and killed from their spikes, so the best one can do is to avoid it. Occasionally, they can be found holding bomb rocks, which they will prime and drop on Pikmin.
