The Praying Skitter Leaf is a skitterling appearing in Pikmin Z, and the smallest boss encountered. It has an insect-like body and a set of long, sharp pincers. As an ambush predator, it remains motionless until prey gets close. During the fight, it will move very quickly and will slice strictly at Captain Alph with its pincers, inadvertently skewering Pikmin that get in the way. Its back is covered in leaf armor, so to harm it, a Pikmin must pick up a bomb rock and throw it near the boss, blowing the armor off for an opening to attack. It feeds on insects and is preyed upon by large carnivores.

Notes

In-game entry

The Praying Skitter Leaf is another one of many examples of convergent evolution, evolving to mirror a creature that once existed on this planet many years ago. It is the first true skitterling to have evolved into a large predator.
