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).

Beady Long Legs can now be beaten easily with any type of pikmin, because his legs are much farther apart. A squadron of 20 yellows is preferable, but in the [[Hole of Heroes]], there's a level where you have to use [[Blue Pikmin]]. Regardless, using a large squadron is rather regrettable, though not as much as the previous game.
