'''SPERO'''s ({{j|スパロウ|Suparō}}) are intergalactic unmanned 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]]. Many SPEROs were built, yet only one of the last few dispatched actually managed to find [[PNF-404|a planet]] with suitable food. | |||
Besides being plot devices, SPEROs serve a purpose in [[Mission Mode]] and the [[Side Stories]]. They are used as a storage device for the [[fruit]]s, treasures and [[enemies]] collected in [[Collect Treasure!]] stages, comparable to the [[Hocotate ship|ship's]] Research Pod in underground areas in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. Besides that, it can collect [[Burgeoning Spiderwort]] berries and bring [[Louie]] back to consciousness when he is carried to one, meaning that it can appear in Battle Enemies! stages as well. In some Side Stories stages, it can also collect [[ship part]]s. It does not have other functions besides collecting, and stays in one location throughout the mission. | Besides being plot devices, SPEROs serve a purpose in [[Mission Mode]] and the [[Side Stories]].
