The Shaggy Long Legs will receive minimal damage on the areas of its body covered in hair. To remove the hair, the player must direct [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] to climb the towering beast's legs when they are on the ground. It is recommended that the player uses many Pikmin, as each step the creature takes will shake off some of the Pikmin on that leg. Once they reach the first joint, they will begin to pluck the hair. Once it is stripped of all its hair, the creature will violently roar and shake off its attackers. Quickly call the Pikmin back and have them climb up the leg again so they can attack the second joint and remove its hair. Once a leg has had both joints removed of their hair, the Pikmin will climb directly to the body and begin stripping off small strands of the longer hairs. | The Shaggy Long Legs will receive minimal damage on the areas of its body covered in hair.

As the Shaggy Long Legs loses hair, it will take damage. In total, it has eight joints covered in hair, and it will lose about half of its health once all hair is removed. Once all of the joints have had their hair removed, direct your Pikmin to climb up the creature's bare legs and attack its main body. It will begin to lose hair and once all of its hair has fallen off, the creature will begin to visible shake in pain and will speed up its stomping. Using [[Winged Pikmin]] after all its hair is gone is also a viable strategy since they'll automatically charge at its main body without the need to climb the legs. | As the Shaggy Long Legs loses hair, it will take damage.

* The Shaggy Long Legs' animation changes depending on its body condition. While it has hair, it will stomp faster than without it. But if it has lost all hair on one of its legs, that leg will move slightly slower and shakes in pain. | * The Shaggy Long Legs' animation changes depending on its body condition.
