==Enemy overview==
In many ways, Beetley looks similar to [[Bronto Burt]], but he bears a different color scheme, has more indented eyes, and a beetle's crest on his head. Despite having wings, Beetley does not typically fly, instead choosing to pace along the ground and try to impale any intruders he sees. Beetley, despite his carapace, is not the toughest enemy in the world.

==In the ''Kirby'' novel series==
[[File:V18 Beetley Illustration.jpg|thumb|100px|An illustration of a Beetley from ''Kirby: Uproar at the Kirby Café?!''.]]
In the [[Kirby (novel series)|''Kirby'' novel series]], a swarm of Beetleys appears in ''[[Kirby: Uproar at the Kirby Café?!]]''. When [[Kirby (novel character)|Kirby]] touches a spider's web, it creates an alarm which alerts the swarm of Beetleys. [[Hornhead]] commands the Beetleys to attack Kirby and [[King Dedede (novel character)|King Dedede]]. They steal Dedede's hammer, wrap Kirby and Dedede in spider silk and throw them into jail. Later, a Beetley who is responsible to give them food in jail tells Kirby and Dedede about the fruit they harvested in the pantry, causing them to try escaping. Beetley blocks their way but is blown away. After Kirby and King Dedede go to the pantry, a swarm of Beetleys finds them. When Kirby inhales Hornhead, the Beetleys are terrified and call for their leader, [[Bugzzy]], for help against him. After being defeated, Bugzzy commends the Beetleys to give Kirby and Dedede the [[Green Spider Grass]].
