Armored Footwear

The armored footwear is 2 Green Legs attached to a head. It is similar to the Justice Alloy and Forged Courage. It must be taken from a Gatling Groink in the Pikmin 3: The Dweevil's Revenge/Pit of 100 Trials. It makes the Pikmin partially acidproof. Any Pikmin on an acid pool could be rescued by Green Pikmin (Flip-gill). Pikmin wearing it's health will only go down 5% every second instead of going 50% down, giving them 20 seconds to get out of the acid.

Olimar's Journal
OK. So, we went and found this enemy. We beat it up, and took it back before it revived! I know that we are acidproof, but the pikmin will slightly be.

Sales Pitch
This, although not corrosive, is useful! The pikmin really need it.

Pikmin 360
A pair found in the wrecked Pit of 100 trials can be equipped in Pikmin 360 and Pikmin 360: 2 Player Arena. It will also provide defense against fire.
