Man-at-Legs
Pseudoarachnia navaronis
The Man-at-legs is a member of the Arachnorb family, and first appeared as a boss in Pikmin 2. Unlike the two other Arachnorbs, it is a biomechanical creature and has very spindly feet, making its battle strategy different. It moves around quickly, and stops only to use its blaster-like weapon to attack, usually when you have agitated it with attacks. It has its flaws, though; there is a visible laser it uses to target the Pikmin, making it obvious where it's going to shoot. The best way to defeat them is to run in and attack them when they lower their heads, and when it shakes them off in a fury, you run to hide. Another great way to defeaat them is to take a large mob of Purple Pikmin, and while it lays dormant in the ground, pummel it with all the purples you have by throwing them. It should drop its health to a substantial fraction if you do it correctly. These enemies, thankfully, are usually found in arenas that have raised ground that can be used as shields against the blasts. When it dies, it explodes; quite different from its relatives. As a side note, this enemy cannot be petrified while it is dormant.
It is only found on the last (9) sublevel of the Subterranean Complex, Sublevel 13 of the Hole of Heroes, or Sublevel 2 in the Secret Testing Range in Challenge Mode.
