Bzzap!
A sprite of a Bzzap!.
Sprite from Paper Mario
First appearance Paper Mario (2000)

A Bzzap! is a bee enemy found mainly in Flower Fields in Paper Mario. It attacks by stinging its enemies. A Bzzap!'s sting sometimes poisons its target. They 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 shrink Mario.

Bzzaps! also appear at the end of Forever Forest in a beehive. Near the beehive is an HP Plus Badge. They are off the forest's main path in a second exit. By hitting the tree they are hanging on, Mario can coax the Bzzaps! out of hiding.

Bzzaps! and a smaller variant were going to appear in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, but they were taken out of the game for unknown reasons.
