The Dead Ringers are, debatably, species of bronzabell that run up to Pikmin during raids and set off loud alarms to alert enemies.

In Pikmin: Dusk and Dawn
Dead Ringers are small bronzabells in Pikmin: Dusk and Dawn that, during a raid, sprint up to Leaders and Pikmin and set off a bright and loud alarm that alerts enemies to their location. Their bodies are small, red, security alarms with multiple red eyes and white irises. They have 4 legs with 3 claws on the end of each of them, which allow them to scurry quickly. During a Raid, Dead Ringers have a chance to appear, quickly dashing towards a leader. When they are right next to a leader, they will take a second before letting out a loud alarm, as well as flashing red lights, alerting enemies in a medium-sized radius. The only way to prevent this is to throw a Rock Pikmin or Statue Pikmin at them, breaking their casing. If their case is broken, they will quickly scamper off back into the darkness. They can also be stunned by Glow Pikmin or any other Pikmin with stunning capabilities.

During a Crimson Raid, despite not having a Crimson counterpart, unlike the Crimson Ghoslurpt or Crimson Sunsquish, Dead Ringers will sometimes become faster, and activate their alarm faster than usual.
