It quickly abducts Louie before the player can reach him. The appearance of it is extremely similar to the Hachisuzume (the bee-like enemies) [[File:Aaa.png|thumb|left|Hachisuzume]] and it commands them to attack your Pikmin swarm using its harp-like beak. It cannot be attacked while its own swarm is surrounding it, requiring the captains to aim their Pikmin (preferably Winged Pikmin) at the boss after it exposes itself after one of its coordinated attacks.</p>

The strategy is mainly to defend your Pikmin from the bees and then attack the boss.  As the battle progresses, the boss will create different formations with its bee-like workers in an attempt to destroy your swarm. One should note that this boss completely relies on its own swarm to attack, possessing no offensive moves of its own besides shaking off Pikmin. The first formation is a gigantic cone-like formation, the easiest to avoid. The attack is simple to dodge, just wait for the formation to being attack and strafe around the swarm. If any Pikmin are captured by the swarm, the swarm will move the around the boss in a circle formation, holding the captured Pikmin. The swarm must be attacked swiftly to free the Pikmin. If Pikmin aren't released from the swarm, they will be killed. The second formation is shaped like parallel lines. It will release one line after another.

.The third formation has the swarm forming a circle surrounding you, slowly closing in. If any Pikmin are left behind inside the circle, they will be captured.  You need to use your Pikmin to create gaps in the circle to allow your group to escape. To avoid leaving Pikmin behind, one can use a [[Ultra-Spicy Spray]] create a hole quickly and get out faster. Once any of the formations are complete, the swarm will temporarily leave the boss, giving you a chance to attack the boss, which you can use Winged Pikmin to reach. Once enough Pikmin are 

latched onto it, it will fall to the ground, allowing any ground-based Pikmin to swarm it as well. Once it dies, it will drop a large fruit, alongside [[Louie]]. Its body, alongside the corpses of its swarm, can be taken back to the Onion.

*The Scornet Maestro is the second airborne boss to appear in the series, the first being the [[Vehemoth Phosbat]].

*The japanese name for Scornet Maestro, "Tategotohachisuzume," translates to "Harp Bee."
