what Olimars home planet is called?
Hocotate. It's mentioned in Pikmin as 'my home planet', and Olimar works for Hocotate Freight. - '''TheYellowPikmin'''


I guess that you don't come here that often, humans made the tech that formed the cannon because that is earth. also the home planet of olimar is hocotate. also sign your posts.[[User:Rocky0718|Rocky0718]] 19:18, 20 April 2008 (UTC)rocky0718[[User:Rocky0718|Rocky0718]] 19:18, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

:Okay, first, it's impossible for it ot be a dweevil because it has no features of it whatsoever. Secondly, it is an arachnorb. And finally, it is probably a cross biomechanical parts such as the aformentioned broiler and gun with a spider-like creature.--{{User:Gamefreak75/Sig}}

Whats with its leg? One of its legs looks like it could crush pikmin due to the small stub on the end of it. It also looks like that same leg is the first one to move, as if the bug follows that leg. Could this be possible? Also, when I fought it, I attacked it with a small number of white pikmin (due to their running speed) but eventually, I decided to just toss all of my pikmin on it, which made it try to shake them off a second time. Apparently, it takes it a while to try and recover itself for another attempt to remove any attacking pikmin. Final note, any pikmin who are attacking it when it shoots its gun, will be flung off.

:Compared to its relatives' feet, the Man-at-Legs's are too small to acually do any damage unless it stomped a Pikmin directly, which would make the battle unfair, as it keeps moving across the arena AND also has a cannon. {{User:Snakeboss14/sig}}
::Learner7, what you suggest is interesting but you must realize that the Man-at-Legs is a perfect symbiosis between insect and machine, reminiscent of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borg]. The small stub on one end of one of its legs may be almost anything; a deformity, a method of traversing difficult terrain; the possibilities are nearly limitless.[[User:Pikdude|<span style="color:blue">Pik</span>]][[User talk:Pikdude|<span style="color:green">dude</span>]][[File:200px-Mario you phail.gif|50px]] 22:00, July 23, 2010 (UTC)
:::The small stub, if you look closely, is actually a claw of some sort. It uses it to movre across the stage. The claw is also extendable and that's how the MAL can reach far distances pretty quickly. --{{User:Gamefreak75/Sig}}
::::Looking at it carefully reveals that it couldn'tactually kill a Pikmin, it's too high to reach them. {{User:Snakeboss14/sig}}
:::::Like I said, the stub is a way of traversing terrain quickly. May I suggest that it uses this claw to pull itself around?[[User:Pikdude|<span style="color:blue">Pik</span>]][[User talk:Pikdude|<span style="color:green">dude</span>]][[File:200px-Mario you phail.gif|50px]] 18:54, July 26, 2010 (UTC)
I doubt it, unless the claw can stick to metallic surfaces. {{User:Snakeboss14/sig}}
:Does it really matter what the claw is for? We know it exists. We know it doesn't hurt pikmin. That's just about all we know. {{User:Volatile Dweevil/Sig}}
::We can infer. and the claw would grip the surface to give it some extra moving speed or something along those lines.[[User:Pikdude|<span style="color:blue">Pik</span>]][[User talk:Pikdude|<span style="color:green">dude</span>]][[File:200px-Mario you phail.gif|50px]] 22:08, July 26, 2010 (UTC)
:::Come on! Don't ruin the fun. We're playing scientist right here! :P {{User:Snakeboss14/sig}}
::::I think that maybe the Man-At-Legs's mechanical parts are an evolved skeleton, and some kind of machine was involved with the evolution. Also, maybe the reason it seems to follow the claw is because, as stated in Olimars notes, the MAT is peaceful, so maybe the claw is kind of dragging it along. -random creepy guy
Alright!! No More scientists!!! My explanation is: "Hey!! Who made my sentry gun come to life?!!"--[[User:Louie G.|Louie G.]] 17:59, 13 February 2012 (EST)
My theory is that Man-At-Legs could be a baby beady long legs with a toy that prevents it from developing flat feet and has a gun to play killing insects [[User:Pipo:Pipo]]
==Poor Quality images==
All the pictures are of poor quality. I think we need better pictures. [[User:Flish|Flish]] 02:56, July 31, 2010 (UTC)
:New ones good enough?{{User:Greenpickle/sig}}
== Over the Edge ==
Is it possible for the Man-at-Legs to fall into the abyss? It nearly fell of when i was in challenge mode but the time ran out just as it was going to put its leg into the abyss. Would it fall off and if so has happened to anyone? does it have side effects like the Long Legs out of its arena glitch in Pikmin 1? [[User:Loafy the Breadbug|Loafy the Breadbug]]
:I've never had it happen, but I assume that, like all enemies dying that way in Pikmin 2, it would just die and its treasure, if any, would appear a little above the ground near where it fell off. <span style="font-family:times;">'''''[[User:Greenpickle|<span style="color:#080;">G</span>]][[User talk:Greenpickle|<span style="color:#050;">P</span>]]'''''</span>
::That is an interesting thought. I'll test it out and if it works maybe we could put that on the Man-at-Legs page. {{User:Volatile Dweevil/Vol2}}

== Bomb Rocks ==
How many bomb rocks does it take to kill it? [[Special:Contributions/172.91.199.1|172.91.199.1]] 16:15, February 1, 2021 (EST)
::I don't think there's a way to have that happen naturally in-game. Would most likely require hacking to find out. [[User:Trig Jegman|Trig]] - 18:44, February 1, 2021 (EST)
::What Trig said. That said, we know the boss has 2800 HP, and bomb rocks cause 500 damage, so likely 6 bomb rocks. &mdash; '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 13:22, February 2, 2021 (EST)
