Scornets are tiny hornet-like creatures in Pikmin 3 that are lead by the Scornet Maestro.
These enemies are capable of making coordinated formations that are capable of capturing and eventually killing your Pikmin swarm, by picking up your Pikmin, and then flying around the Scornet Maestro, which you can free by throwing a Pikmin at them. If a captured Pikmin is not freed, over time it will be carried away and lost.. When found alone, these creatures as much less uniform and easier to defeat.
Battle Strategy
Using ground based Pikmin is practically useless. The best way to defeat a swarm is to use large amounts of Winged Pikmin in order to outnumber them. These enemies look similar to the Scornet Maestro which controls them using its harp-like beak. A group of Scornets is found shortly before you get to the Scornet Maestro, hovering around aimlessly on the far side of the river. Thier attacks are uncordinated and thier dead bodies are not retreivable. When you fight an organized army of them in the boss battle, all 100 of thier bodies are retreivable, which is weird because they give minimal seeds and there are more than your Pikmin army can carry when carrying Louie and the Scornet Maestro as well. It is unadvisable to come back for more of their bodies, because they are worth only one seed and it is a long run to and from the ship.
Trivia
- The Scornet is very similar to the Sonic the Hedgehog series enemy Mosqui.
