The Skitter Leaf is an enemy in Pikmin 2 that highly resembles a green leaf. These creatures remain camouflaged on the ground until approached, at which time they attempt to flee with a cricket-like chirp. However, their range is relatively short, and they cannot go much farther than where they are first encountered. They are somewhat rare, usually located in very fertile places, such as near or in water or foliage. When a corpse of a Skitter Leaf is carried back to a onion, it will plant one Pikmin seed; whenever a corpse is carried to the Research pod, it will give one Poko. For this reason, most consider it to be a waste of time to kill and return to the Onion or the Research Pod.

Killing Strategy
Swarm it with Pikmin, or toss one directly onto its back; Purple Pikmin work especially well for the latter method. It has low vitality and can also be easily defeated by captains. Captains can be harmed by it, and it will shake any attacking Pikmin off when given the chance, which usually knocks off their flowers or buds. This enemy cannot be petrified when it hides on the ground, only when it is up and active.
Glitch
There are rare occasions where one will duck right when it loses all its health, causing it to be rendered unable to die until a captain approaches it.
In Pikmin 3
In Pikmin 3, the Skitter Leaf is a returning enemy, and appears to be similarly harmless. However, there is also new leaf enemy that highly resembles a Skitter Leaf. This enemy resembles a dead leaf instead of a healthy, green one. It also has been shown to have the ability to kill Pikmin.
