The Muckerskate (ドロンボウ, lit. "Muddy Pond Skater") is an enemy in Pikmin 4. It appears and behaves similarly to the Skeeterskate, but rather than shooting water, it shoots mud at pikmin. However, it is still very fragile and can be defeated in only a single hit, though doing so is dangerous when on top of unfrozen mud.
Stats
Behavior
Muckerskates are seen swimming on the tops of mud puddles in The Primordial Thicket and The Mud Pit, waiting for the Pikmin and the Captains to walk past them. If spotted, the Muckerskate will shoot mud at what it spots up to 3 times before having to recharge. This mud deals damage and can bury any Pikmin on the ground. The Muckerskate usually swims away after shooting as to not get hit by any pikmin.

Notes
Dalmo's Notes
“This cautious critter moves in fits and starts. When it does, the muddy liquid In its transparent orb sloshes around. Splish! Splash! Sploosh! If I could observe this unique anatomy up close, I'd have no regrets, even if I got spattered with mud!”
Olimar's Notes
“A subspecies of the Skeeterskate that's adapted to live in muddy wetlands. It uses its straw-like proboscis with densely grown hair to capture any plankton living in the muddy water and filter out everything else.”
Louie's Notes
“Even after draining the mud, its texture remains gritty. Chew it for long enough, and your teeth will get a good scrubbing.”
