Another source has the establishment date around 1903-1905. Until 2016 the settlement was known as Artemivka. On 17 May 2016, Verkhovna Rada adopted decision to rename Artemivka to Skorokhodove according to the law prohibiting names of Communist origin.
Town was occupied on October 4, 1941, by the German army. It was liberated on September 3, 1943.
Until 18 July 2020, Skorokhodove belonged to Chutove Raion. The raion was abolished in July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Poltava Oblast to four. The area of Chutove Raion was merged into Poltava Raion.
