The Spindly Long Legs is an Arachnorb with long, spindly legs that end in spikes instead of feet. Its main body has 5 large spikes on it in the main directions, except for up, because that's where its leg joint is. it has a purple and yellow color-scheme, with the main body parts like the legs and central orb being a dark purple color that fades into yellow on the spikes. It steps much faster, but can only kill 2 Pikmin per hit. Rock Pikmin are also immune, due to the fact that it does piercing damage. This Arachnorb also will shake much more than other ones as well. When killed, similarly to most Arachnorbs, its main body splits and it disintegrates into dust. Although this variant's main orb splits into 4 folds instead of the typical 2.
Its scientific name is a combination of the latin word for needle, Acus, and the latin word for leg, Crus.
Notes
Olimar's notes
- “This odd Arachnorb forgoes the traditional spherical body shape for one covered in spikes. They are too big to have much practical use on attacking pikmin, so I can only surmise that this species is more adapted to hunting other indigenous creatures. Their thin tapered spike-legs would be much better suited for spearing a larger target like a Mandiblard or Dwarf Bulborb.”
Louie's notes
- “When killed, it disintegrates into dust, and I'm sure its meat would likely be meager and unappetizing. But, if a leg is removed while it is still living, it could be used as a novelty giant toothpick, if you want to spice up the presentation of any giant sandwiches you've made.”
Shacho's notes
- “This thing is very aggressive, and definitely a workplace hazard to wherever it could be put to work. The only saving grace I can think of is it could be killed and have its parts taken, but it falls apart into this dust when it dies that makes me sneeze harder than that incident with the crates full of pepper. Completely useless.”
