Flowing Skeeterskate

The Flowing Skeeterskate is a Spitterspatter enemy found in Pikmin Eco II, and is the first boss of the game. It is a quadrupedal species related to the Skeeterskate, and is about four times the size of its water-skating relative. It has four eyes, two eyes big and two eyes small, and a snout ending in a spiked mouth. The abdomen is encased in membranes like a cage.

Strategy
Being the first boss of the game, the Flowing Skeeterskate is notably weaker than other bosses. It will wander around the main area where you find it, its feet able to stomp Pikmin that get too close. Occasionally it will stop and drink up the water in its arena, and will use that as projectiles against the player. It will also occasionally release all of the water in its abdomen at once, flooding the arena completely aside from a few small areas. Blue Pikmin can easily swarm the enemy after this happens and damage it that way.
 * It is possible to burst the abdomen before it releases the water to deal extra damage, but it immediately fills up the arena doing this, so this will most likely drown any non-blue Pikmin.
