Bony Beetle
A Bony Beetle is the skeleton version of a Buzzy Beetle in Super Mario World. They walk around, stop, then stick out spikes. They also are immune to Fireballs, so timing is critical. Bony Beetles were first seen in the corridors of Ludwig von Koopa's castle.
They are later seen in Paper Mario, with a complete makeover, resembling gray Koopa shells with yellow spikes, also with brown shoes instead of green. Strangely, its head is tucked in (note the eyes) and no legs are seen. Instead, the shell is body-rested on the floor.
They're defeated basically the same way as Dry Bones, but harder, so the player should whack them with the Hammer often when fighting them.
By scanning a certain e-Reader card, Bony Beetles can be found in the game Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3 in the level, Swinging Bars of Doom.
Template:Pmenemybox Bony Beetle's made a short appearance in Paper Mario. They were found in an underground section of Bowser's Castle, and also in other places from the castle. They would engage battle with Mario by trying to ram him to knock him off guard.
