Beetley is an enemy that debuted in Kirby: Triple Deluxe, first encountered in the Fine Fields level. It yields the Beetle ability when swallowed.

In many ways, Beetley looks similar to Bronto Burt, but it bears a different colTemplate:Our scheme, has more indented eyes, and a beetle's crest on its head. Despite having wings, Beetley does not fly, instead choosing to pace along the ground and try to impale any intruders it sights. Beetley, despite its carapace, is not the toughest enemy in the world.

Kirby Star Allies

“I’m the new king of insects!” This young king wants to challenge the old one to see who’s truly mightier. But first…into the darkness! He braves any challenger with his horn!
— Pause screen caption for Beetley, Kirby Star Allies

In Kirby Star Allies, Beetley can be recruited as a Friend. Once recruited, Beetley has all of Beetle Kirby's attacks, and can perform Friend Abilities like Friend Throw.

Trivia

  • The Kirby Star Allies pause caption for Beetley refers to it as the 'new king of insects', who 'wants to challenge the old one'. This old king refers to Bugzzy, who also appears as a Friend in Star Allies.
