Raging Long Legs is a boss in Pikmin 2. It has a resemblance to the Beady Long Legs in overall body structure, but has bigger, hairier feet, a bigger body (to the point where any Pikmin can reach it), is glossy black with purple veins, and moves more slowly. If you deal enough damage to it though that it becomes agitated, it shakes your Pikmin off and starts stomping madly. This is dangerous since its feet are very large. Its body is so big, however, that any kind of Pikmin can be thrown without waiting, and dodging it should be a rather trivial thing, so it isn't hard as long as you call your Pikmin back before it rages. It dies in the same manner as the Beady Long Legs; ejects its possessions from its body and its composure crumbles into dust. If this creature does not have any treasure to drop, it will instead drop 30 Mitites. Despite wielding feet much larger than the Beady Long Legs , this does not make it too much more of a threat. The time it takes to move them takes much longer, and simply by observing the shadows this gargantuan creature casts it can be attacked even with leafed Purple Pikmin, as long as one stays underneath its huge abdomen, even when enraged. A great way to defeat this beast is to use only around 7-15 Pikmin. In Cavernous Abyss you won't have enough time to get any of the other treasures and you will have to use 10 Pikmin. If you try using less you will definitely run out of time. Make sure the Pikmin are supercharged with the Ultra-Spicy Spray. When it becomes enraged, what better hiding place for your Pikmin than on the Long Legs itself! Calling the Pikmin off is imperative for a no-death run as they will carelessly run at the beast to try to attack it and more than likely will be crushed.
This rare boss is only seen on the last sublevel(15) of the Hole of Heroes, the single sublevel of the Cavernous Abyss in Challenge Mode, and in the Angle Maze stage of 2-Player Mode if the stage is shaped with a large center.
