The Arachnode is a spider-like creature in Pikmin 3. When undisturbed, they'll take on a cocoon-like appearance, but once a Pikmin or leader is caught in its web, it will reveal its true form and try to attack them.
Their webs act as the primary hazard for Winged Pikmin. When Winged Pikmin are carrying anything back to the Onion, and an Arachnode and its web are in the way, the Winged Pikmin will get stuck, putting them at risk of being devoured.
Notes
Pikmin 3 Website
"An eight-legged creature that traps its prey in a sticky web."
Strategy
To defeat it, a Pikmin or leader must be thrown at its web. After being caught in the web, the creature will try to eat the immobilized Pikmin or leader. At this time, throw another Pikmin (preferably Rock Pikmin as they can make short work of the Arachnode) directly at it to cause damage. Once defeated, its web will break apart and the creature will be ready to be taken to back to the Onion. If you're quick enough, you can quickly land three consecutive hits from Rock Pikmin on it, instantly killing it. One thing to note is that the Arachnode can eat your pikmin from the other side of the web, but you cannot attack it from the other side of the web.

Trivia
- This is the first true arachnid in the Pikmin series, having a full set of eight legs, unlike members of the Arachnorb or Dweevil family.
