Desiccated Skitter Leaf

The Desiccated Skitter Leaf is a member of the Skitterling Family in Pikmin 3. They are similar to dead leaves in appearance and use this to hide itself from the captains.

Behavior
The Desiccated Skitter Leaf will stay motionless until a Pikmin or a captain get close to it. If a Pikmin get close to it, the Desiccated Skitter Leaf will start to quickly and agressively attack it with its mandible-like arms. If a captain get close to it, the Desiccated Skitter Leaf will be afraid and try to run away. It can be killed in one hit if a Pikmin is directly thrown on its back.
