The '''Raging Long Legs''' ({{j|ゾウノアシ|Zou no Ashi|Elephant Feet}}) is a [[boss]] in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. It is related to the [[Beady Long Legs]], but has bigger, hairier feet, a bigger body (to the point where any Pikmin can reach it with relative ease) that is glossy black with purple veins, and moves more slowly. It is also much stronger, and so takes longer to kill. Unlike the Beady Long Legs, when it shakes Pikmin off it briefly stomps with increased speed. The fact that it has a larger body means any kind of Pikmin can be [[throw]]n onto it without waiting for it to stop walking at its body to lower, which makes attacking easier.

The fact that it has a larger body means any kind of Pikmin can be [[throw]]n onto it without waiting, which makes attacking easier.


The size of its feet means they harm Pikmin and enemies alike. Similar to the [[Beady Long Legs]], its joints will begin to smoke and its skin will begin to flay when it reaches low health, and dies in the same manner; ejecting its possessions from its body and crumbling into dust. If this creature does not have any treasure to drop, it will instead drop 30 [[Mitite]]s. It can [[Health#Regeneration|regain health]] much faster than any other enemy, making it a very durable boss.

This rare boss is only seen on the last sublevel (15) of the [[Hole of Heroes]], the single sublevel of the [[Cavernous Abyss]] in [[Challenge Mode (Pikmin 2)|Challenge Mode]], and in the [[Angle Maze]] stage of [[2-Player Battle]] if the selected layout is the one with a large central area.

Despite wielding feet much larger than the [[Beady Long Legs]], this does not make it too much more of a threat. It is possible to stay underneath the creature's abdomen with a small squad of [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] without having to fear being [[Crushing|crushed]]. This is because this enemy can't move its feet directly underneath its body, even when enraged, and so there is always a safe area right underneath the large orb. For this strategy, a group of around 15 Pikmin is recommended due to the high risk of its feet with a larger squad and the creature's health regeneration being so quick potentially dragging out the fight or outright outpacing the Pikmin's damage for smaller squads.

This is because this enemy can't move its feet directly underneath its body, even when enraged, and so there is always a safe area right underneath the large orb. Since the Pikmin should be called back just before the enemy can shake them off, the amount of Pikmin that can be used are limited anyway, so a group of about 15 is recommended.
Since the Raging Long Legs will never shake off Pikmin until it has done a multiple of four stomps or has raised its body back up after lowering it, a large amount of Pikmin can be thrown onto its body before it shakes, especially so if the creature enters a slower than usual stomping cycle. As such, if one wants to inflict large damage quickly, running behind the Raging Long Legs while it's lowering and raising its body, and then attacking it right from when it starts stomping to right when it's about to shake the Pikmin off can easily knock down at least a quarter of its health, though extra care should be taken to keep Pikmin away from being crushed by its feet whenever possible.
 
Due to how quickly it regenerates health, it is impossible to make progress in damaging the creature if the player uses only one or two Pikmin.

''Pseudoarachnia'' is the genus of all known [[arachnorb family|arachnorbs]], and ''furiendis'' is similar to the Latin ''furor'', meaning "rage", once again tying in to the creature's short temper. ''Furiendis'' could also be related to "fur", in reference to the creature's hair.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*The Raging Long Legs has the most [[HP|health]] out of all creatures in ''Pikmin 2'', even more than the [[Titan Dweevil|final boss]] if the HP of its [[Titan Dweevil Series|weapons]] aren't tallied up alongside the its main health pool.
*The Raging Long Legs has the most [[HP|health]] out of all creatures in ''Pikmin 2'', even more than the [[Titan Dweevil|final boss]].
*The Raging Long Legs will instantly kill most enemies it stomps upon. This can typically only be seen in [[Cavernous Abyss]], if one lures a [[Munge Dweevil]] into its arena, or if it appears in an [[Angle Maze]] layout.
*It can be implied that the Raging Long Legs is female, considering that [[Mitite]]s are found inside of it subsequent times it is defeated &ndash; according to the Piklopedia entry for Mitites, they are parasitic creatures that spend their time inside the bodies of female hosts to lay their own eggs inside the host's ones. This also applies to a [[Baldy Long Legs]] in [[Olimar's Shipwreck Tale]].
*Instances of the Raging Long Legs that release [[Mitite]]s upon death seem to coincide with its Piklopedia entry, in which it is stated that "Upon reaching maturity, they excrete a special pheromone that attracts females of particular species, enticing these females to swallow the mitites whole." This also applies to a [[Baldy Long Legs]] in [[Olimar's Shipwreck Tale]], another member of the Arachnorb family.
*It is unclear how Louie developed the recipe for the Raging Long Legs, as it completely dissolves on its death.
