'''''Pseudoarachnia navaronis'''''
'''''Pseudoarachnia navaronis'''''


The '''Man-at-legs''' is a member of the Arachnorb family, and first appeared as a boss in [[Pikmin 2]]. Unlike the two other Arachnorbs, it is a biomechanical creature and has very spindly feet, making its battle strategy different. It moves around quickly, and stops only to use its blaster-like weapon to attack, usually when you have agitated it with attacks. It has its flaws, though; there is a visible laser it uses to target the Pikmin, making it obvious where it's going to shoot. The best way to defeat it is to run for cover when it begins firing, then run in and attack them when it lowers its head. and When it shakes them off in a fury, you run to hide.  Unfortunately, easier said than done.  If your pikmin try to go through a blast, they will be immediatly killed.  Another great way to defeat them is to take a large mob of [[Purple Pikmin]], and while it lays dormant in the ground, pummel it with all the purples you have by ''throwing'' them. It should drop its health to a substantial fraction if you do it correctly. These enemies, thankfully, are usually found in arenas that have raised ground that can be used as shields against the blasts. When it dies, it explodes; quite different from its relatives. As a side note, this enemy cannot be [[ultra-bitter spray|petrified]] while it is dormant.
