Beady Long Legs
Beady Long Legs
Pseudoarachnia armoralis
Beady Long Legs is an enemy in the Pikmin games. It first appeared as the boss in Pikmin, and reappears in Pikmin 2 as a far more common mini-boss. The only attack it has is stomping around, but its large feet make this more dangerous than it sounds. When defeated, it crumbles into dust that disintegrates after ejecting its belongings from its orbular torso.
In Pikmin they are found only in the Forest Navel once, and in Challenge Mode one is found in The Final Trial.
In Pikmin 2, one appears on the last (5) sublevel of the Citadel of Spiders (where it drops a key which unlocks challenge mode), one on Sublevel 14 of the Hole of Heroes, one in the Twilight Garden in Challenge Mode, and one that can be found in front of the landing site in the Perplexing Pool after day 31. Killing it here yields about twenty small pellets.
How to Kill
Pikmin
One strategy that can be used to defeat it is to use 3 to 7 Yellow Pikmin, then attack the body from underneath.
If the player wants more of a challenge in fighting the Beady Long Legs, it is possible to defeat it by throwing Pikmin at its feet. This is also achievable with a larger number of any Pikmin, but much more time-consuming.
Captains
Even when petrified, the captains cannot damage the beast.
