The '''Skutterchuck''' ({{j|エボシトバシ|Eboshi Tobashi}}) is an insect-like enemy first encountered in ''[[Pikmin 3]]''. The creature has a black wafer-like body with an orange underside. It has a habit of picking up certain objects (like [[crystal nodules]] and [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]]), similar to [[Dweevil]]s. It uses its odd shape to scoop them up and carry them around, and also for throwing its load at an approaching enemy. | The '''Skutterchuck''' ({{j|エボシトバシ|Eboshi Tobashi|Launcher Eboshi}}) is an insect-like enemy first encountered in ''[[Pikmin 3]]''.
