In Pikmin: Decayed Leaf
The Scornet Layman is a new miniboss encountered in Pikmin: Decayed Leaf. The Scornet resembles the Scornet Maestro, but the creature has no harp strings. It has purple wings rather than yellow with pink markings, blue hands and tail, and the feathers on top of its head are of a yellow color. The Scornet Layman is also slightly smaller than the maestro. Unlike the Maestro, which fights with the Scornet Prince and smaller Scornets, the Layman decides to fight by itself. The creature will swoop down into the arena, scaring Pikmin, displaying its sharp claws and bellowing a loud roar; signaling the battle. In the arena, there are three large catapults around the edges of the walls.

The Layman will constantly stay floating above the group of Pikmin. When it decides to attack, it will scream and begin to hack. After enough choking, the bug will spit out five large balls of wet fur and stack it into a tower. The creature will then begin to throw the balls at the Pikmin. Any Pikmin caught in the ball will be stuck and begin to drown unless whistled out. The fur balls can be destroyed by Blue Pikmin. Another attack is the Layman spitting out three enormously large bomb rocks. It will then throw them onto the ground and the timers on the bombs will start. The bombs then explode after ten seconds, creating a much larger explosion. Its main attack is pulling its arm back; seemingly pulling a large chunk of dirt in the shape of a ball. The Layman will throw it at the group; crushing and Pikmin caught in the attack. However, 15 Pikmin can carry it to a catapult and launch the large ball of dirt at the Layman; knocking it down to the ground to attack. For each time it is hit, the amount of projectiles spat out or conjured from each attack increases. At a third of its health, the creature will destroy two of the three catapults found and summon a large brick wall around the last one from the dirt. One of the captains must pick up a bomb rock when spat out and throw it at the wall to destroy it.
