The Groovy Long Legs is a biomechanical arachnorb that has had its entire carapace completely replaced with a disco light ball and an audio device implanted within, and the second set of joints on all of its limbs fitted with four holes containing specialized glands. To start the battle, it will quickly descend from its web, slamming its body into the ground and breakdancing to swing its legs into place, knocking away any Pikmin and leaders too close to it. It attacks primarily by stomping with its four large feet to the beat of its music, but its signature attack involves spewing a pink gas below itself from the holes in its legs. This gas causes Pikmin exposed to it to enter a state of confusion, hypnotizing them into dancing uncontrollably.
There are three songs that the Groovy Long Legs can play, which control the speed of its stomps and are identified by the color of its nineteen glowing eyes. While its eyes are cyan, it plays an intimidating yet funky song, and stomps to it at a slow pace. If no Pikmin are under it, the Groovy Long Legs will simply briefly pause before continuing its normal behaviors. If Pikmin are under it, it will spray gas, blare an airhorn, and change its eye color to yellow. While yellow, it plays a more upbeat and striking tune, which it stomps to at a moderate speed. After being in this state for a while, it will briefly pause. Eventually, it will revert to having cyan eyes if no Pikmin are present under it, but if there are, it will again spray its gas, blare an airhorn, and change its eye color, this time to red. While red, it plays a frantic, high-pitched version of the song it plays during its yellow-eyed stage, which it stomps to at a fast speed. After a brief dance, the Groovy Long Legs will stomp with two legs and revert to having cyan eyes.

The Groovy Long Legs returns in Pikmin 2... Again?. It has some changes from its Pikmin 4 incarnation, namely its nineteen eyes have different colors, which represent the Red Pikmin, Yellow Pikmin, Blue Pikmin, Purple Pikmin, White Pikmin, Green Pikmin, Brown Pikmin and Slime Pikmin. It first appears in Banger Disco as the boss of the cave, on a dance floor-themed sublevel. Damaging it requires hitting its eyes with Pikmin of a matching color, and once all of its eyes are black, they will regenerate and be able to be attacked again. However, its electrical wire-like appendages will begin surging with glowing bands of energy that are green at first, then yellow, orange, and finally red, with the speed of the Groovy Long Legs and the bands increasing with each subsequent color. The Groovy Long Legs can still use its confusion attack, or at least one that has a similar effect.
