The Mossy Long Legs is a secret boss that resides far inside Altitude Springs and is almost identical in shape to the Beady Long Legs. Its entire body is bumpy and brown, covered in green moss. Plants and mushrooms grow on it in small patches. The Mossy Long Legs walks slower than the Beady Long Legs, but it has an additional attack: when it ducks down, it also opens up its main body as if it died, dropping a blob of acid onto anything below it. This acid instantly kills almost any Pikmin that it touches except for Green Pikmin. Worse still, the blob explodes upon contact with the ground, splattering acid everywhere. It is recommended that only Green Pikmin be used to attack and kill this mighty foe.
When killed, the Mossy Long Legs leaves behind a shiny green orb that can be brought back to the Onions for a large amount of Pikmin.
