'''Beanbons''' are the most common type of enemy (similar to [[Waddle Dee]]s) found in ''[[Kirby Mass Attack]]''. They have the appearance of a green vegetable root with a bulbous body. They possess small, orange feet, as well as two orange marks on each of their cheeks. On top of their bodies, there are two leaves.  
[[File:KMA Beanbon Sprite.png]] '''Beanbon''' is a small and common green sprout-shaped [[enemy]] that is exclusive to ''[[Kirby Mass Attack]]''. It can commonly be seen waddling slowly from left to right and if it spots any [[Kirby]]s, it will attempt to shoot a seed at them to attack. Beanbon is among the most ubiquitous enemies in ''Kirby Mass Attack'' — appearing in most stages in some form or another and with many alternate forms — and essentially replaces [[Waddle Dee]] as the most basic weak enemy in the game, due to Waddle Dees being less common in this title. Defeating one confers 100 points to the player.


Beanbons are first encountered in the very first stage of [[Green Grounds]] and appear frequently throughout most other regions of the game. They attack by spitting small seeds at the [[Kirby]]s, stopping and turning red shortly before they do so. There are multiple variations of Beabons in ''Kirby Mass Attack'', including the [[Big Beanbon]] and [[Colossal Beanbon]].
One of ''Kirby Mass Attack'''s [[Checklist (Kirby Mass Attack)|Checklist]] objectives, "Beanbon Basher", is obtained by defeating at least 50 regular Beanbons throughout the game.
