"Skutterchuck" is a combination of "skutter", which is similar to "skitter", which in turn means "to run around quickly", and "chuck", referring to how it tosses rocks. Its Japanese name is {{j|エボシトバシ|Eboshi Tobashi}}, {{j|エボシ|eboshi}} is a black-lacquered headgear (made of silk, cloth or paper) originally worn by court nobles in ancient Japan and {{j|トバシ|Tobashi}} is the sterm of the verb {{j|飛ばす|Tobasu}} which can mean "to fire", "to hurl" or "to launch". In ''Pikmin 3'', it is internally known as <code>iwakko</code>. ''In Hey! Pikmin'', its internal name is <code>eboshi</code>. Similar to all enemy internal names in ''Hey! Pikmin'', it is a Romanization of the Japanese name, although it doesn't have the second word. Its generator name is <code>enemy_hat_throw</code>. This could be from how Skutterchucks hold Crystal Nodules on their heads like hats, and they will throw them to attack. | "Skutterchuck" is a combination of "skutter", which is similar to "skitter", which in turn means "to run around quickly", and "chuck", referring to how it tosses rocks.
