The '''Skitter Leaf''' is an [[Skitterling family|skitterling]] that resembles a green leaf. These creatures remain camouflaged on the ground until approached by [[leader]]s, at which time they attempt to flee with a cricket-like chirp. They are somewhat rare, usually located in very fresh places, such as near or in water or foliage, but they are not worth defeating or recovering. A dangerous relative of the Skitter Leaf is the [[Desiccated Skitter Leaf]].

The Skitter Leaf is encountered in Pikmin 251. The behavior of this creature has not changed from Pikmin 2.

Notes

Olimar's observations

The skitter leaf is not a threat to the Pikmin, but it can still be a real pain if it runs around and disturbs nearby creatures like Bulborbs. They're also really quick and hard to catch. If they were able to directly hurt my Pikmin, they would be a much stronger enemy. As they are, they're more of an inconvenience than anything.
