Yeah, im pretty sure the oracle text should be updated. Intimidate (This creature can't be blocked except by artifact creatures and/or creatures that share a color with it.) Skirk's ability = Cant be blocked except by red/artifact. Red shares a color. Artifacts can block. Smells like intimidate to me.

Except this card states a color. Intimidate says 'creatures that share a color with this creature'. The two abilities react differently to laces and altering color-words.

yeah, you could change this guy's color and he would still only be able to be blocked by red/artifact creatures. The same can't be said about Bladetusk Boar

Obviously this card was a precursor for Intimidate, but this doesn't make him a creature with Intimidate ;)
