“Far out! You got my little buddies out of Goblup's belly! Thanks so much, Starfy!”
—Herman, The Legendary Starfy
Herman (Yadokarita in Japan) is a hermit crab who lends advice to Starfy and also puts him through special mini-games. He wears a colorful rainbow shell and he is the big brother to Herbert. He has pets named Coddies which he loves and cares for.
History
Densetsu no Starfy
In Densetsu no Starfy, he is first seen in Lobber's Cave wearing an ordinary gray shell. Herman asks Starfy to find his missing home (his conch shell - the Pretty Shell). After finding a Kettle, Herman, believing it may have been washed further, gives Starfy a key leading to another part of the level, where Starfy finds a tusk shell - the Dentalium Shell. After finding the tusk shell, Herman - who finds the shell too small - thinks that it is behind the rocks. He then teaches Starfy how to use the Star Spin attack. Later, Starfy finds the colorful conch shell and returns it to Herman. Herman is very grateful for Starfy and leads Starfy to the next stage, Coral Reef.
The Legendary Starfy
In The Legendary Starfy, Herman first appears in Gluglug Lagoon (Stage 1-2: 'Star Spin') where he asks for Starfy's help in saving his 10 of his Coddies who have been swallowed alive by a Goblup. Herman tagged the Goblup with a tracker, so that Starfy can easily find it. By using his Star Spin attack, Starfy manages to free all of the Coddies and return them to a grateful Herman safely. Herman then tells Starfy the whereabouts of Big Squiddy and Bunston.
Side Quest No. 1: Herman's 5 Red Pearls
Herman appears again in the "Herman's 5 Red Pearls" Side Quest found in Stage 1-2. This is the first Side Quest found in the game. In this Side Quest, Herman has lost 5 precious Red Pearls and Starfy must help Herman to find the Pearls to buy 'high-class fishie food' for his Coddies. Finding the 5 Red Pearls grants Starfy access to Area Secret 1.
Side Quest No. 2: Race with Fork
Herman also appears in the "Race with Fork" Side Quest found in Stage 1-3: 'Mysterious Powers'. In Race with Fork, Herman asks Starfy to challenge Fork and beat him in a race. Winning the race has Fork grant the player access to Area Secret 2.

Trivia
- The journal entries for Side Quests No. 17 "Juggle This" and No. 18 "Gliding By" in The Legendary Starfy refer to Herman and have descriptions "Looks like Herman can't get enough juggling! Can you beat his record?" and "Use your Glide ability to beat Herman's jumping record" respectively, even though Herbert was the one who set these Side Quests and not Herman.
- The game never implies in the actual Side Quests themselves that the player has to beat Herman's records or set these records from the requests of Herman rather than Herbert, so this might be an oversight from the game developers.
