The Beady Long Legs is a common member of the arachnorb family. The only attack the creature has is stomping about, its four feet crushing any Pikmin they land on. Its weak spot is its orbicular torso; given its height, Yellow Pikmin are normally necessary for a fast kill.

Notes
Olimar's observations
- “Classic Beady Long Legs, it seems like I can never get away from it! Even though I should be used to these things, they seem stronger and faster than I'm used to. Oh, what else is new? It seems like that applies to almost all of these creatures.”
Cookin' with Louie
- “Poisonous. Consumption results in prolonged writhing and uncontrollable mirth.”

Attacks | Crushes Pikmin |
The Beady Long Legs, in Pikmin Forever, is able to create small depressions in the ground where it stomps, slightly raising the chances of a Pikmin tripping. If enough Pikmin are thrown onto its main body, it will move much slower. If enough Pikmin are thrown onto its feet, it will pick up its feet slower but will bring the foot down faster and more forcefully, making the depression created by the foot larger. Pikmin will also be thrown off every time a foot stomps. Pikmin are a bit smarter, jumping out of the way of the foot if they are idle or are currently chasing the foot, but Pikmin in a leader's squad will not try to avoid the foot. Each of the beads on its legs can be attacked, much like the Shaggy Long Legs, lowering the boss's health each time one is defeated. A destroyed segment smokes a bit more, as well as the foot shaking once both segments of each foot are destroyed. The most the boss's health that can be taken off by the segments is half of its starting health. Once it is defeated, instead of opening in half, its feet and legs disintegrate and the body falls onto the ground. If it contains something inside, Pikmin thrown onto it will latch on and start attacking it. It has the same amount of health as a Red Bulborb, and once the body is defeated, it will explode harmlessly and scatter Pikmin around, revealing what was contained inside. If it does not have anything inside, Pikmin will try to pick it up, with a required twenty Pikmin and a max of forty Pikmin. It can then be taken to either an Onion to receive twenty Pikmin or to the ship to be salvaged for twenty metal units.

In Pikmin Kart
This article or section presents information pertaining to Pikmin Kart, a fanon game created by Blueflower999. |
The Beady Long Legs is an item in Pikmin Kart. It appears rarely from item boxes, but more often if the user is in a lower place. When used, a Beady Long Legs drops down a little bit before the kart in first place and starts stomping around. If a kart is hit by its feet, it'll be temporarily stunned and flattened for a while, driving slower. The Beady Long Legs will remain there for the rest of the race, but if another Beady Long Legs item is used, the monster will jump to the new location. The boss will avoid stepping on the one who called it.

In Pikmin V, the Beady Long Legs has been visually updated so that the wax is glossy; it is also thinner on its abdomen and nonexistent on its joints, revealing yellow-ish skin underneath. Its behavior is now more like a Baldy Long Legs: it never stops to rest, but its lower joints can be attacked by Pikmin to cause it to stagger; this stops its movements for a few seconds and causes it to lower its main body low enough for non-Yellow Pikmin to reach. A new variant called the Icebound Long Legs is also introduced.
Notes
Brittany's notes
- “The Beady Long Legs is the type specimen of the Arachnorb family, which has evolved convergently to behave like spiders. This is evidenced by the presence of an endoskeleton, which spiders do not have, that serves to create the genus's eponymous long and sturdy legs. Resultingly, some species like the Beady have developed a replacement exoskeleton in the form of waxy, hardening secretions, making them quite formidable.”
Olimar's notes
- “Its legs are coated in an impervious wax. Its eponymous spherical joints are its weak points, as they can be attacked to cause the main body to stagger and fall. The body can also be reached by Yellow Pikmin directly, if you're willing to step between its stomping feet.”
Louie's notes
- “Even if you ignore the obvious that its body disintegrates on death, the remains are also poisonous. They're probably wax, because samples scraped off of a living organism are, you guessed it, poisonous.”

Attacks | Crushes Pikmin |
In Pikmin: The Bulblaxian War, the Beady Long Legs appears as a boss every now and then. It has much health, and sometimes the arena it is fought in will benefit the Pikmin more than it. For example, when it is fought in the Temple of Ice, it will sometimes slip on the ice there; upon defeat, it will drop the Corruption Circle. Another one attacks Base Camp at one point in the story, opening up access to the Forest of Symbiosis; the one there drops the Ominous Crate.
Notes
Olimar's notes
- “The beady long legs, one of the most recognizable members of the arachnorb family, has feet that keep it stable under most conditions but will cause it to slip when on ice. In order to defeat it, one must batter away at the armor until the decay organ triggers, causing the creature to quite literally fall to pieces.”
Ship's notes
- “I wish I was a beady long legs. Red bulborb? Squish it. Annoying captain? Squish it. Flame-breathing creature? Squish it. Alas, I'm not beady long legs. Sigh.”

Attacks | Crushes Pikmin |
The Beady Long Legs is a returning species of arachnorb in Pikmin: Decayed Leaf. The creature resembles its original variant in Pikmin 2. The Beady Long Legs will be waiting idly in its web until Pikmin approach. It will then drop from above and stomp its feet; signaling the boss fight.
Along with having much more health and durability to attacks from Rock Pikmin, Purple Pikmin, and explosives, the boss stomps around slightly faster than usual. Due to its height, only Yellow Pikmin and Winged Pikmin can attack it when not idle. If attacked, the arachnorb will shake off Pikmin. When attacked again, the arachnorb will get enraged, shaking off all Pikmin. It will begin to shake in place and prime its attack for six seconds, allowing for the Pikmin and captain to escape. The creature will then begin to stomp around rapidly, stomping each foot into the ground once in a single second. The Beady Long Legs will do this eight times before calming down and reverting to its normal speed. When killed, the Beady Long Legs opens up its orb and disintegrates.
Notes
Olimar's notes
- “The Beady Long Legs is a strange species. No eyes, ears, mouth, nose... no sort of orifice is located on this creature. Other arachnorbs can eat bugs by opening their orb cavities, like Baldy Long Legs. However, this creature has not been seen doing that. It is widely unknown how this creature feeds, or why the arachnorb species keeps constantly leveling land.”
Louie's notes
- “Inedible AND poisonous. Do NOT consume at any cost.”
President’s notes
- “When Olimar came back from the planet for the first time, he told me about this giant, golden spider creature. It seems I get to see him yet again. Good to know he's even scarier than before...”
