The '''Muckerskate''' ({{j|ドロンボウ|Doron Bou|Muddy Pond Skater}}) is an enemy in {{p4}}. It appears and behaves similarly to the [[Skeeterskate]], but rather than shooting [[water]], it shoots [[mud]] at pikmin. However, it is still very fragile and can be defeated in only a single hit, though doing so is dangerous when on top of unfrozen mud. | The '''Muckerskate''' ({{j|ドロンボウ|Doron Bou|Muddy Pond Skater}}) is an enemy in {{p4}}.

If they spot one, the Muckerskate will shoot mud at what it spots up to 3 times before having to recharge. This mud deals damage and can bury any Pikmin on the ground. The Muckerskate usually swims away after shooting. | ||
