'''SPERO'''s <ref> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TJ-7p9gBLBU&t=1m10s </ref> (pronounced as ''''spare-'''oh', or sparrow) are probes sent by the Koppaites to search for a planet with edible sustenance on it in order to save their planet [[Koppai]], as seen in the opening sequence of ''[[Pikmin 3]].  ''SPERO 3 is the last one searching and is the one that finds [[PNF-404]]'', ''a planet with bountiful food to sustain Koppai's population.
The '''SPEROs''' are intergalactic probes built and launched by the [[Koppai]]tes. Their function is to search out planets that harbor edible matter; in the case of the Koppaites, this means fruit.

In ''[[Pikmin 3]]'''s [[Mission Mode]], a SPERO is used instead of the [[S.S. Drake]]. It picks up spoils brought to it just like every ship in the [[Pikmin series]], but does nothing else.

SPEROs are used as a storage device for the fruit collected in ''Pikmin 3'''s [[Mission Mode]], comparable to the [[Hocotate Ship|Ship's]] Research Pod in underground areas in ''Pikmin 2. ''
 
==Trivia==
*SPERO also means "I hope" in italian. Given the probe's mission, it seems fitting.
*As SPERO is written in all caps, it probably is an acronym, but what SPERO stands for is never mentioned in the game.

This page is part of the merge with Pikmin Wiki, and needs resolving. Please bear with us as we do so.

Before the import, this subject had a page both on Pikipedia and Pikmin Wiki. You are currently reading the Pikipedia version, and the Pikmin Wiki version can be found here. Both versions need to be manually merged together and placed on the current page.

The SPEROs are intergalactic probes built and launched by the Koppaites. Their function is to search out planets that harbor edible matter; in the case of the Koppaites, this means fruit.

Many SPEROs were built, yet only one of the last few dispatched actually managed to find a planet with suitable food. This planet is named PNF-404, and also happens to be the home planet of the Pikmin.

Mission Mode

In Pikmin 3's Mission Mode, a SPERO is used instead of the S.S. Drake. It picks up spoils brought to it just like every ship in the Pikmin series, but does nothing else.
