The '''Skitter Leaf''' is an enemy in ''[[Pikmin 2]]'' that resembles a leaf. These creatures remain camouflaged on the ground until approached, at which time they attempt to flee with a cricket-like chirp. They are somewhat rare, usually located in very fertile places, such as near or in water or foliage. Oftentimes, they're not worth defeating and returning to the [[Onion]]/[[Research Pod|pod]]. This is because the leaf they leave upon death, while only requiring one Pikmin to carry, gives only one [[Pikmin family|Pikmin seed]]/[[Poko]]; and because they cannot harm Pikmin.

There are rare occasions where one will duck right when it loses all its health, thus dying right when a [[captain]] approaches it.
