The Skitter Leaf is an enemy in Pikmin 2. It may look like a plant, but it's actually an insect. It's somewhat rare, but irrelevant towards putting in the Onion/pod, for they only give one Pikmin/Poko. If they are approached, they wake up from their camouflaged state, and escape. Throwing a Pikmin on it will immediately kill it. This enemy cannot be petrified when it hides on the ground, only when its is up and active. There are rare occasions where one will duck right when it loses all its health, thus dying right when Olimar approaches it. It cannot actually harm Pikmin, but will shake them off when given the chance, which usually knocks off their flowers or buds.

They are usually located in very fresh places, such as near or in water or foliage. They attempt to flee with a cricket-like chirp when approached, and leave a leaf upon death, which requires only 1 Pikmin to carry.if the pikmin are killing the skitter leaf and you leave them go back and they wont have their lights on..

How to Kill

Swarm it with Pikmin, or toss one directly onto its back; Purple Pikmin work especially well for the latter method. It has low vitality and can also be easily defeated by captains. Captains can be harmed by it, unlike pikmin.
