:Compared to its relatives' feet, the Man-at-Legs's are too small to acually do any damage unless it stomped a Pikmin directly, which would make the battle unfair, as it keeps moving across the arena AND also has a cannon. {{User:Snakeboss14/sig}}

::Learner7, what you suggest is interesting but you must realize that the Man-at-Legs is a perfect symbiosis between insect and machine, reminiscent of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borg]. The small stub on one end of one of its legs may be almost anything; a deformity, a method of traversing difficult terrain; the possibilities are nearly limitless.[[User:Pikdude|<span style="color:blue">Pik</span>]][[User talk:Pikdude|<span style="color:green">dude</span>]][[Image:200px-Mario you phail.gif|50px]] 22:00, July 23, 2010 (UTC)

:::The small stub, if you look closely, is actually a claw of some sort. It uses it to movre across the stage. The claw is also extendable and that's how the MAL can reach far distances pretty quickly. --{{User:Gamefreak75/Sig}}

::::I think that maybe the Man-At-Legs's mechanical parts are an evolved skeleton, and some kind of machine was involved with the evolution. Also, maybe the reason it seems to follow the claw is because, as stated in Olimars notes, the MAT is peaceful, so maybe the claw is kind of dragging it along. -random creepy guy

How many bomb rocks does it take to kill it? [[Special:Contributions/172.91.199.1|172.91.199.1]] 16:15, February 1, 2021 (EST)
::I don't think there's a way to have that happen naturally in-game. Would most likely require hacking to find out. [[User:Trig Jegman|Trig]] - 18:44, February 1, 2021 (EST)
::What Trig said. That said, we know the boss has 2800 HP, and bomb rocks cause 500 damage, so likely 6 bomb rocks. &mdash; '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 13:22, February 2, 2021 (EST)
