Card description It's a Buzzy Beetle with a rock-hard shell. You'll have to stomp it a few times to crack it. You may feel a little guilty, but push through it.
Tattle This is definitely a Stone Buzzy. That rock-hard shell must be heavy... Max HP is 3, Attack is 2, and Defense is ??. Flames won't burn its hard shell... I hear that you can crack its shell if you hit it enough... But I'm a little afraid to see what they look like without their shell...

Stone Buzzies are a variation of Buzzy Beetle that appear in Super Paper Mario.

Design

Stone Buzzies, as with standard Buzzy Beetles and their other variants in the first three Paper Mario games, resemble turtles, with yellow skin, beady black eyes, and two pairs of feet with a single claw on each. Stone Buzzies uniquely have a grey, rocky shell that, once broken, reveals that they wear a pair of blue boxers with red spots underneath.

History

Stone Buzzies make their first appearance in Downtown of Crag, where one appears in 3D, and they are found in abundance within the Gap of Crag. They move slowly and require three stomps to defeat. Each stomp increasingly cracks their shell, with the Buzzy also becoming increasingly stressed. Upon defeat, their shells break to reveal their body, this seemingly embarrassing the Buzzy, and they promptly disappear.

A more powerful version, the Dark Stone Buzzy, appears in the Flopside Pit of 100 Trials.
