What generally distinguishes them from Buzzy Beetles is their ability to reassemble when stomped on, as well as their retractable spikes. | ||

Bony Beetles first appear in ''[[Super Mario World]]'' and [[Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2|its remake]]; they mostly appear in castles and fortresses, with their first appearance being in the depths of [[Vanilla Fortress]]. They appear as bipedal skeletal creatures with red shoes, though the blue-tinged one shown in the credits cutscene has blue shoes. Bony Beetles simply walk around, then stop and stick out spikes. They can be defeated with the swing of a [[Cape Mario|cape]], but are immune to [[fireball]]s. If [[Mario]] stomps one, it will fall apart and reassemble seconds later, similar to a [[Dry Bones]]. Due to graphical limitations in the original version, Bony Beetles appear to turn into Dry Bones whenever they collapse. | |||

However, their falling apart animation has been edited to no longer be exactly the same as the ''Super Mario World'' design of Dry Bones. | |||

Bony Beetles reappear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'' and ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe]]'', making their first HD appearance. Their behavior is exactly the same as in ''Super Mario World''; they walk around and suddenly stop to stick out their spikes. When stomped, they fall apart and reform a few seconds later; immediately after reforming, they will always stick their spikes out before walking around again. Notably, they now resemble their ''Paper Mario: Sticker Star'' appearance, and are quadrupedal, making them closer in appearance to Buzzy Beetles; when they extend their spikes, they more closely resemble [[Spiny|Spinies]] as a result of their shell's bony appearance. | Bony Beetles reappear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.

Unlike in the games, it can shoot spikes to form a prison-like structure and shoot lasers from its eyes. When it rams into Mario, it sends Mario flying into a block, releasing a [[Dragon Coin]].

They are later seen in ''[[Paper Mario]]'' in an underground section of [[Bowser's Castle]] (and several other places). If they spot Mario, they will try to land a [[First Strike]] with a [[Shell Toss]] attack. They attack in different ways depending on if their back spikes are extended: If their spikes stick out, they jump onto Mario, dealing 5 points of damage, and cannot be jumped on; if their spikes are retracted, they simply use a basic Shell Toss attack like a [[Koopa Troopa]] for 3 points instead. They will retract or extend their spikes after being attacked by Mario and his partners. While their spikes are retracted, Mario can [[Jump]] on them to flip them over, setting their [[Defense]] to 0 and causing them to waste a turn correcting themselves. | |||

Bony Beetles | Bony Beetles appear as enemies in the [[Nintendo 3DS]] game ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]''. Their appearance now closely resembles the standard [[Buzzy Beetle]] design more than their previous iterations. Just like in ''Paper Mario'', Bony Beetles can protrude and retract their spikes at will, and are also immune to fire-based attacks. They cannot be jumped on unless Mario uses an [[Sticker (Paper Mario: Sticker Star)#Iron Jump|Iron Jump sticker]]; if he uses one when the spikes are not displayed, they simply repel the attack by extending their spikes. A Bony Beetle's only attack is protruding their spikes (if they have not already) and then headbonking Mario; much like a [[Goomba]], the Bony Beetle will roll over if the attack misses. | ||

As teammates, Bony Beetles have an HP rating of 4/6, an ATK rating of 3/6, and a RCV rating of 1/6. Their Beetle Shield Skill reduces the damage received by half for two turns, and their Awoken Skill, Dark Boost, raises the ATK of the player's Dark team members if a horizontal line of Dark orbs is cleared. | As teammates, Bony Beetles have an HP rating of 4/6, an ATK rating of 3/6, and a RCV rating of 1/6.
