Throughout {{p3}}, there are pieces of text written in '''[[Koppai]]te'''. The language used consists of unique symbols which, together, form words. A parallel between it and the English language can easily be made, given that characters in Koppaite can be mapped to Latin letters, and with that, a direct English message can be obtained. Although largely original, the characters used in the language are similar to Latin characters, but with some changes.

Because the text behind this language cannot be easily deciphered by players who do not know the cipher, sometimes its contents are secretive and special. For instance, on the [[Menu#Area selection|area selection menu]], when the player clicks an area, some mysterious text will appear on the top-left, with what appears to be comments from the developers.

The information behind some texts does not seem to match up with reality, indicating that it was true in [[Pikmin 3 prerelease information|prerelease versions]].

Each character in the Koppaite language can be mapped to one or two English letters. There are only characters for the 26 English letters plus an extra, unknown one. This unknown character only appears on the [[Mission Mode]] and [[Bingo Battle]] menus, and its meaning cannot be decided from the context alone.


These characters are obtained from the font file in the game's data.
