the icon image had the skutterchuck render instead of its actual piklopedia icon, so i fixed it by adding the piklopedia icon
(→Naming: The name is actually explained in Olimar's notes. The explanation isn't in the English version, of course, due to the different name.) |

Other Pikmin types can also be used to attack the underside of the creature. The Skutterchuck may shake them off and attempt to throw rocks onto them, but it rarely hits on time. This method takes a bit longer, and destroying all crystals with Rock Pikmin before killing the enemies leaves the Skutterchuck helpless. | Other Pikmin types can also be used to attack the underside of the creature.

In ''Pikmin 4'' skutterchucks now take 3 direct Rock Pikmin hits to be defeated, totalling 4 hits including the one required to break the crystal. This makes the use of throwing Rock Pikmin somewhat ineffective compared to how it was in ''Pikmin 3''. Instead, the player can charge the Rock Pikmin at the Skutterchuck, as Rock Pikmin now deal 4 times the amount they used to while charged. This, combined with the relatively low health of the Skutterchuck means this beast can be immediately and safely defeated with 8 or more Rock Pikmin. | |||
Alternatively, [[Purple Pikmin]] can defeat a nearby Skutterchuck in one throw with its shockwave. Beware that this will not work if the Pikmin is thrown on top of the crystal. A levelled up rush from [[Oatchi]] can also immediately defeat this beast. | |||
It is possible to take advantage of the Skutterchuck's attack, as if the player positions a leader near another enemy, the Skutterchuck will throw its crystal at the leader, killing or damaging the other enemy in the process. Unlike other enemies that use weapons like the [[Careening Dirigibug]] in ''[[Pikmin 2]]'', the Skutterchuck is not immune to the crystal nodules it throws, so this can be used to kill other Skutterchucks if they are in the area, or even the Skutterchuck that launched the nodule. | It is possible to take advantage of the Skutterchuck's attack, as if the player positions a leader near another enemy, the Skutterchuck will throw its crystal at the leader, killing or damaging the other enemy in the process.
