The '''Arachnode''' ({{j|マリグモ|Mari Gumo|{{w|Temari (toy)|Temari}} Spider}}) is a spider-like [[enemy]] in {{p3}} and {{p4}}that lives on 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.

This shape and coloring comes from the eight legs wrapped tightly around their bodies; their actual bodies are small black orbs with yellow circles instead of stripes. Once a [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] or [[leader]] gets caught in an Arachnode's web, it will uncurl 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.

[[Rock Pikmin]] will kill an Arachnode in just three hits (just two in ''Pikmin 3 Deluxe'''s Normal [[difficulty]]), and can hit the Arachnode from either side of its web. Other Pikmin types can only attack the Arachnode on the side in which it rests, and they can get stuck if the Arachnode is too high or if they are thrown from too close to the web. Winged Pikmin are best for getting an Arachnode down from a high point in its web since they can [[charge]] at it, after which point other, stronger Pikmin can be employed. If Winged Pikmin are not available, any Pikmin can latch on to a low-resting Arachnode with a careful throw, and [[Yellow Pikmin]] can usually reach a high-resting one. As a last resort, a Pikmin or a leader can be thrown into the web to bait the Arachnode into a vulnerable position.

== Trivia ==
* The Arachnode is the only spider based enemy in the main series to have eight legs, as all [[Arachnorb family|Arachnorbs]] and [[Dweevil family|Dweevils]] have only four.
