{{Nihongo|Captain Tuck and the Flippers|隊長とコロコロたんけん隊|Taichō to Korokoro Tanken-tai}} are an expedition team in [[Flipper-Flop 2|Flipper-Flop]] in ''[[Rhythm Heaven Fever]]'' and ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]''.

One of the Flippers keeps an [[Expedition Journal]], detailing their journey through [[wikipedia:Antarctica|Antarctica]]<ref>"ワタシの声が南極じゅうにひびきわたる。" (My voice echoes throughout Antarctica.) ~ [[Expedition Journal|たんけん隊日誌]] (Expeditionary Diary), ''[[Minna no Rhythm Tengoku]]''</ref><ref>"Ma voix résonnait dans toute la banquise antarctique."

Captain Tuck makes borscht for the team, made from chunks of meat, cubed veggies, and diced love in every bite. This keeps the team warm and satisfied, and ready for expeditioning<ref>"Our captain makes the best borscht! It's got chunks of meat, cubed veggies, and diced love in every bite! It keeps us warm and satisfied all day long. Let's get expeditioning!" ~ [[Hot Borscht]], ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]''</ref>. After training drills, Captain Tuck brews a cup of coffee in his special mug, which has a picture of a seal on it. He never puts sugar in it, as he says the picture is sweet enough for him<ref>"After our drills, the captain brews a cup of coffee in his special mug. He never puts sugar in it, saying that our picture on the mug is all the sweetness he needs. *sniff*" ~ [[Blubber Latte]], ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]''</ref>.

The Flippers appear in [[Remix 5 (Wii)|Remix 5]]'s prehistoric setting with an orange color, with their captain offscreen. In the [[Two-Player Menu|Two Player]] version of [[Flipper-Flop 2|Flipper-Flop]], there is one cyan Flipper for Player 1 and an orange one for Player 2 in addition to the other seals. Inputting the code word {{Nihongo|MATCH}} into [[Police Call]] calls up a match, during which [[Wrestler]] poses and flexes on the opponent, all the while Captain Tuck compliments his actions. The call ends with Tuck saying "That's it!", with Wrestler reacting with a confused grunt. In [[Barbershop Remix]], Captain Tuck appears to work as a barber, with the Flippers sporting mustaches. The group also appears in ''[[Rhythm Tengoku The Best Plus Comic]]'' [[Rhythm Tengoku The Best Plus Comic#11テビリとバーバーショップ (Tibby and Barbershop)|11テビリとバーバーショップ]] (Tibby and Barbershop), where [[Tibby]] is getting a haircut at the barbershop. He falls asleep as Captain Tuck cuts his hair, but he overdoes it. Embarrassed, the barber moves away, as the seal that was sitting behind them climbs onto Tibby's head to hide the mistake. Some Flippers can be seen in a portrait in the [[Café]].

*Captain Tuck and the Flippers have a lot in common with [[Sarge]] and the [[Squadmates]] and [[The Blue Birds]] from previous games. For instance, Captain Tuck's face resembles that of the [[Sarge]], and one of the Flippers keeps an [[Expedition Journal]], similar to the [[Rhythm Shiryō-Shitsu#マーチャ活動記録 (Marcher Activity Log)|Marcher Activity Log]] and [[Blue Bird Diary]], down to the same dates.

*Plushies of the Flippers were available at the [[Merchandise#Rhythm_Heaven_Fever_iam8bit_Launch_Event|''Rhythm Heaven Fever'' iam8bit Launch Event]].
