Shaggy Long Legs is a miniboss in Pikmin 3, and a member of the Arachnorb family. This Long Legs' body is completely covered by a mass of shaggy hair. Its color scheme depends on the area it is found within. It can even spawn without hair. This species of Arachnorb does not stop to rest as do the rest of the members of its family. However, it does stop to shake off Pikmin, which can now climb the Shaggy Long Legs' legs.[1]

Strategy

The Shaggy Long Legs cannot receive much damage damage as long its hair is attached to its abdomen. To remove the hair, the player can either use Yellow Pikmin to throw up at the creature's body. While they will fall off, they will pull off small sections of its hair until all of its hair falls off, allowing its body to be freely attacked.

An easier method is to use Rock Pikmin. Throw Rock Pikmin at the Shaggy Long Legs' feet, and they will start to climb up its legs, pulling off hair as they pass by the joints. Once all the hair is pulled off of its body, they will latch on and attack it freely.

While any Pikmin type can climb up the legs, Rock Pikmin's immunity to being crushed makes them a better choice for battling this creature.
