The Pond Skater is an airborne species equipped with wings capable of flight; when not in the air, it is typically found skating on bodies of water. According to [[Olimar]]'s research conducted while he was visiting [[PNF-404]] with [[Louie]] to pay back the debt for [[Hocotate Freight]], some Pond Skaters adapted to life on dry land, losing their ability to skate on water. Over time, the Pond Skater's wings became useless for flying, but they began to mimic leaves of their environment. This evolution would eventually lead to the [[Skitter Leaf]], which shares no residual traits of the Pond Skater. | The Pond Skater is an airborne species equipped with wings capable of flight; when not in the air, it is typically found skating on bodies of water.

Pond Skaters are mentioned in ''Pikmin 2'' | Pond Skaters are mentioned in ''Pikmin 2''{{cite quote|{{Notes:Skitter Leaf/olimar}}|Captain Olimar|[[Olimar's notes]] for the [[Skitter Leaf]]}}, but are never encountered by either [[Louie]] or [[Olimar]] during the game. While not directly proven to be a Skitterling, it is regardless an evolutionary ancestor of the Skitter Leaf. The [[Skeeterskate]], an enemy that skates over the surface of [[water]], does exist in {{p3}} but its relation to the Pond Skaters is unknown. | ||
