The Skeetershock is a member of the Spitterspatter family appearing in Pikmin: Elemental Speciation. It has an appearance similar to the ordinary skeeterskate, but with brighter yellow footpads, and greyer legs. it's most notable features are that instead of a water pouch on its head, it boasts a large, battery-like organ. This sturdier head makes it less vulnerable to direct impacts by pikmin. It also has two plug-like prongs on the sides of its water spout that it uses to shoot electric bolts. These electric bolts instantly kill non-yellow pikmin, and damage captains not outfitted with the Anti-Electrifier. When it remains alive, a small sphere of water around it is electrified, killing any non-electric-resistant pikmin that touch or swim in it instantly as well. When hit with a direct shot to the back, the pikmin will bounce back in the direction of the captain that threw it, and not fall in the electric water.
Notes
Olimar's notes
- “These creatures skate across the water’s surface, and use the power of waves to charge the organ that rests on their heads. They can then use that to launch a small burst of electricity towards predators. This adaptation allowed them to live in much harsher climates, distancing them from their kin.”
Louie's notes
- “With a metallic taste and tingly shocking sensation when biting into it, these creatures delectable legs will make you swear you're eating steel screws(but in a good way.)”
Shacho's notes
- “These things are much better at capturing kinetic energy from waves. If we could interface these creatures into our power grids, our electricity supply could grow exponentially!”
