The '''Arachnode''' ({{j|マリグモ|Mari Gumo|Ball Spider}}) is a | The '''Arachnode''' ({{j|マリグモ|Mari Gumo|Ball Spider}}) is a [[Arachnorb]]-like enemy in ''[[Pikmin 3]]'', and the first arachnid-based enemy in the [[Pikmin series|''Pikmin'' series]] with an interactable web. While dormant on its web, it resembles a cocoon, with a black and yellow striped and sphere-shaped body. This shape and coloring comes from the eight legs wrapped tightly around its body; the actual body is a small black orb with yellow circles instead of stripes. Once a [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] or [[leader]] gets caught in the web, it uncurls its legs after a while, and wanders up to its prey, consuming them quickly once it has reached them. It may also wander around the web freely in order to avoid Pikmin that are being thrown at it. The web will collapse once the Arachnode is defeated. | ||
Pikmin caught in the web can be saved by whistling at them. This is important, especially with a small squad, as Pikmin shaken off by the Arachnode will usually get stuck in the web. [[Winged Pikmin]] carrying objects will get stuck in webs that are along their route, making webs the primary [[obstacle]] for these types of Pikmin. | Pikmin caught in the web can be saved by whistling at them.
