The '''Desiccated Skitter Leaf''' ({{j|カレハンボ|Kare Hanbo|Desiccated | The '''Desiccated Skitter Leaf''' ({{j|カレハンボ|Kare Hanbo|Desiccated Hanbo}}) is an enemy introduced in ''[[Pikmin 3]]''. It is a hostile Skitterling, contrary to the harmless [[Skitter Leaf]]. It disguises itself as a withered leaf. It scuttles around with great speed, and can snatch a [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] with what appear to be claws and devour it within a split second. These creatures are usually found in the [[Twilight River]], as they are camouflaged almost flawlessly by the dirt and fallen leaves. In Mission Mode, they are found in larger groups, typically around 6-8 per group, posing more of a threat. It produces noises similar to those of a Skitter Leaf, but its sounds much more aggressive. Also like the other Skitterling, upon death, it slowly floats to the ground, and produces a soft noise. It is easy to carry, requiring one Pikmin, and unlike the Skitter Leaf, it is useful for Pikmin cultivation, producing three sprouts. Although they are hard to spot when camouflaged amongst the dead leaves, they can be highlighted if the [[cursor]] passes over them. | ||

When you spot a Desiccated Skitter Leaf, toss a single Pikmin on its back to defeat the creature before it manages to attack. Each time you reach a patch of brown leaves, take a moment to search for any enemies that may be hiding within it. | When you spot a Desiccated Skitter Leaf, toss a single Pikmin on its back to defeat the creature before it manages to attack.

==Behavior== | |||
Although they are agile, Desiccated Skitter Leaves are extremely frail, and will die instantly if a Pikmin is thrown on top of one. Winged Pikmin are the only exception because they can crush a resting Desiccated Skitter Leaf, but not an active one. These creatures can snatch and eat Pikmin quickly, so if one is on the attack, caution must be taken. Interestingly, these creatures cannot eat Pikmin if the latter are holding [[bomb rocks]]: nothing will happen to them and they will continue carrying their bombs. | |||
==Strategy== | |||
{{guide}} | |||
In most cases Desiccated Skitter Leaves are not hard to spot lying on the ground, and it is best for you to defeat them while they are still in a resting state; one Pikmin of any type will defeat it if landed directly on it. If these creatures are found in a group, you should either play hit-and-run and take them out one at a time, calling the Pikmin back as soon as it is thrown, or approach with a large group of Pikmin and throw quickly in hopes of defeating all of them before any casualties can occur. If any [[bomb-rocks]] are in the area, you could consider using one to minimize chance of loss, but this is not recommended in most cases, as Desiccated Skitter Leaves are never too much of a problem to deal with on your own. | |||
