The '''Beady Long Legs''' | The '''Beady Long Legs''' is an enemy in the [[Pikmin series|''Pikmin'' games]]. The only attack it has is stomping around, which it does more quickly when damaged, and its multiple feet crush any [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] they land on. When defeated, it crumbles into dust that disintegrates after its belongings drop from its orbicular torso. The creature is in both the main game and [[Challenge Mode]] of both games in the series. | ||
In | In ''[[Pikmin 2]]'', the Beady Long Legs has a more brownish tone to its body, while in the first one it is just yellow. It also has slightly different shaped feet. Appearances in the second game are more common, and have much less [[HP|health]], slower movements, and different cries. It first appears as a boss in [[Pikmin (game)|''Pikmin'']], where it is found in [[The Forest Navel]], protecting the [[Guard Satellite]] [[ship part]], and again in [[The Final Trial]] in [[Challenge Mode (Pikmin 1)|Challenge Mode]]. In ''Pikmin 2'', one appears on [[sublevel]] 5 of the [[Citadel of Spiders]], where it drops a [[The Key|key]] which unlocks [[Challenge Mode (Pikmin 2)|Challenge Mode]], one on sublevel 14 of the [[Hole of Heroes]], one in the [[Twilight Garden]] in Challenge Mode, and one that can be found in front of the landing site in the [[Perplexing Pool]] after day 30. Killing it here yields 20 small "1" [[pellet]]s. | ||
The Beady Long Legs does not appear in ''[[Pikmin 3]]'', but there are two new Arachnorb bosses similar to it, the [[Shaggy Long Legs]] and [[Baldy Long Legs]] | The Beady Long Legs does not appear in ''[[Pikmin 3]]'', but there are two new Arachnorb bosses similar to it, the [[Shaggy Long Legs]] and [[Baldy Long Legs]]. | ||

== How to kill == | |||
=== Pikmin === | |||
The player should have no more than 30 Pikmin (Yellows work best, as they are thrown higher), as a larger group can be hard to control and may cause a few deaths. When it has done 8 stomps (two with each leg), it will lean down. It will do this twice, so you should ignore it the first time, and then as soon as it begins to lean again, quickly throw Pikmin at its body. This will allow you to attack for a longer period of time. When it shivers, it is about to shake Pikmin off. Call the Pikmin quickly, or else they might fall off for a few seconds and lose their bud or flower status. | |||
The Beady Long Legs can also be harmed by Pikmin attacking its feet; this is far more challenging and time-consuming, though in ''Pikmin 2'' it can be made easier by using [[Purple Pikmin]]. | |||
=== Captains === | |||
Even when [[Ultra-bitter spray|petrified]], its body is suspended too high for captains to reach. | |||

Before the boss lands, use {{button|gcn|C|wii|Paddown}} to organize your party so that Red Pikmin are the closest to you. Walk into the arena, and begin throwing Red Pikmin so that they attach to the creature when it lands; when the Beady Long Legs falls down, its core reaches low enough for non-Yellow Pikmin to be thrown at it. Throw as many Pikmin as you can, using the [[Throw#Group move trick|group move trick]]. When it shakes the Pikmin off, a few of them will remain attached. Carefully whistle the ones that got knocked down and throw them at the core again. The creature should be dead just as it's shaking the second time. <ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=emgi4V8zjM8 YouTube video showing a fast kill on the Beady Long Legs]</ref> | ||
| | == Glitch == | ||
{{Main|Glitches in Pikmin#Beady Long Legs escape}} | |||
In ''Pikmin'', there is a rare and dangerous [[Glitches|glitch]] that causes Beady Long Legs to leave its arena. This glitch is most likely to happen when you leave the arena without killing it. Pikmin and/or Olimar have to be left at the gate to the small arena. The creature will then try to attack these, possibly leaving the arena. Once outside of the barriers, it will continue to pursue you. If you now run to the island where the [[Libra]] is, the enemy may fall into the abyss below, causing the game to crash (the game will also crash if you do not kill it after it leaves the arena after a certain amount of time). | |||
In ''Pikmin 2'', this is fixed. An enemy that has fallen into the abyss dies, and [[Treasure|anything it might have been holding]] reappears above the ground near the place it fell. | |||
