In Pikmin 1, you'd think you should take a large army of reds because reds are stronger than yellows or blues, but no! Such strategy will cause the giant spider to squish all of your pikmin while they try to reach its core.  
In Pikmin 1, you'd think you should take a large army of reds because reds are stronger than yellows or blues, but no! Such strategy will cause the giant spider to squish all of your pikmin while they try to reach its core.
Instead, take a small army of yellows, preferably 5-10, to fight Beady Long Legs. Start out with using just 5 and throwing them at the core while evading the legs, slowly but carefully adding 3-5 of more yellows as you progress and wear down its health. Eventually, the giant spider will die, leaving you with the prize, another one of Olimar's ship parts (you'll need 20-25 red pikmin to get the prize past the flaming geysers and back to the ship).
Instead, take a small army of yellows, preferably 5-10, to fight Beady Long Legs. Start out with using just 5 and throwing them at the core while evading the legs, slowly but carefully adding 3-5 of more yellows as you progress and wear down its health. Yellow Pikmin can reach the core if the body is not lowering itself due to their higher jump, but all other types of pikmin will have to wait until the Beady Long Legs lowers it's body before you can throw them on. This is why it's preferable you bring yellows instead of reds and blues. Also, the more pikmin that are hanging on to the body the lower the body gets due to the pikmin's weight. If enough pikmin are on the Beady Long Leg's core you can throw red and blue pikmin at the core without the Beady Long Legs lowering it for you. It should go without saying, but do not swarm the pikmin around the monster's legs because you will do no damage and risk getting your pikmin squished. Eventually, the giant spider will die, leaving you with the prize, another one of Olimar's ship parts (you'll need 20-25 red pikmin to get the prize past the flaming geysers and back to the ship).
