Man-at-Legs

Olimar's Notes
This species of the arachnorb family fuses with machinery at a crucial point in the maturation process, giving it the ability to fire energy burst from the launcher beneath its spherical torso. However, the Man-At-Legs itself is not in control of this weapon. Instead, the mechanical portions of its structure appear to automatically acquire and attack targets. The Man-At-Legs has a gentle disposition, and as a member of the arachnorb family, it has no natural enemies. It is particularly difficult to understand why this species would develop such awesome offensive capabilities, leading to rumors in the scientific community that it was the machinery that approached the arachnorb and proposed the symbiotic relationship.

Louie's Notes
Although the meat is a bit on the metallic side, the oil makes a mouthwatering gravy or lubricative vinaigrette.

Trivia
Pikmin shot by the Man-at-Legs' gun are considered killed by explosions instead of killed in battle.

Pikmin:The After Years
Same way to kill as in Pikmin 2, but it shoots more bullets in Rememberance Ravine.
