A single Rock Pikmin is enough to destroy the crystal if it is [[throw]]n onto it. Another thrown directly afterward onto the now naked Skutterchuck will kill it in one hit. The second throw should come quickly after the first one, as if there's too much of a delay, the creature will flee before the second Rock Pikmin hits it.
A single Rock Pikmin is enough to destroy the crystal if it is [[throw]]n onto it. The Skutterchuck will flinch, and another thrown directly afterward onto the now naked Skutterchuck will kill it in one hit.

Other Pikmin types can also be used to attack the underside of the creature. The Skutterchuck may shake them off and attempt to throw rocks onto them, but it rarely hits on time. This method takes a bit longer, and destroying all crystals with Rock Pikmin before killing the enemies leaves the Skutterchuck helpless.

It is possible to take advantage of the Skutterchuck's attack, as if the player positions a captain near another enemy, the Skutterchuck will throw its crystal at the captain, killing or damaging the other enemy in the process.

Unlike enemies like the [[Careening Dirigibug]] in [[Pikmin 2]], the Skutterchuck is nit immune to the crystal nodules it throws, so this can be used to kill other Skutterchucks if they are in the area.
