Bzzaps! are bee enemies that only appear in Paper Mario. They are yellow wasps that sting their opponents.
History[edit]
Paper Mario[edit]
In Paper Mario Bzzaps! first appear at the end of Forever Forest in a beehive. Near the beehive is an HP Plus Badge. Bzzaps! are off the forest's main path in a second exit. By hitting the tree their beehive is hanging on, Mario can coax the their out of hiding. Bzzaps! attack by stinging their opponents. Its sting sometimes poisons its target. Bzzaps! usually are found flying around in the open, where they swoop down in an attempt to sting Mario as a First Strike. A Bzzap! can also attack by summoning small bees to attack Mario for a lower chance shrinking him. Bzzaps! are found mainly in the Flower Fields as well.
Unused appearances[edit]
According to an earlier revision of text that was left in the game, Bzzaps! and a smaller variant were going to appear in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, but they were scrapped.
