This aging insect king passed on his title to someone younger. Now he’s off to fight dark forces with techniques that would put a wrestler to shame. What a mandible!

Game appearances

Kirby's Adventure / Kirby Nightmare In Dreamland

Bugzzy's appeared in Kirby's Adventure and its remake as one of the Mid Bosses, and is the only enemy that gives the Backdrop ability. Once Kirby is in his grasp, Bugzzy will either leap forward and drive him into the ground, slam him backwards or pound him repeatedly. Bugzzy may also fly into the air and hover in pursuit of Kirby, and will ensnare him if he gets close enough. Bugzzy supplies ammunition to use against himself in the form of two Bugzzy Jrs. that he releases into the air. These ladybugs slowly flutter and home in on Kirby.

Kirby Super Star / Kirby Super Star Ultra

Kirby fights Bugzzy in Cocoa Cave

Bugzzy appears as a Mid-Boss in Kirby Super Star and its Nintendo DS remake, Kirby Super Star Ultra. He is often fought in cave areas, and attacks by stomping and using suplex moves. When inhaled after being defeated, Bugzzy grants the Suplex Copy Ability. Bugzzy also appears as the Helper representing said ability.

Bugzzy is fought in Cocoa Cave during Dyna Blade, in the Garden in The Great Cave Offensive, and again in Chapter 6 of Revenge of Meta Knight. He appears on three planets during Milky Way Wishes, those being Hotbeat, Cavius, and Mekkai. Bugzzy reprises all these roles in Meta Knightmare Ultra. In The Arena, consecutive fights against Bugzzy, Bonkers, and Chef Kawasaki make up the Mid-Boss All Stars 1 battle. Bugzzy is one of the playable Helpers in Helper to Hero. He is pictured on a card in Kirby Card Swipe.

Bugzzy's Attacks in Kirby Super Star and Kirby Super Star Ultra
Attack Description
Stomp Bugzzy leaps into the air and stomps the ground, creating a Recoil Star in the direction he is facing. Alternatively, Bugzzy jumps three times in a row and does not create Recoil Stars.
Ladybugs Bugzzy creates two smaller bugs, which fly up and down in the direction Bugzzy is facing while he makes them.
Glide Bugzzy jumps into the air and slowly glides towards Kirby, then lands.
Charge Bugzzy charges towards Kirby. If Kirby is grabbed, Bugzzy does a suplex slam, dealing damage to Kirby.

Kirby Star Allies

Bugzzy returns in Kirby Star Allies as a mid-boss. He still provides the Suplex ability when inhaled, and reprises his role as the ability's friend. As a mid-boss, he has access to new attacks, such as the Back Breaker, and a mid-air Dash Grab. A stronger version of Bugzzy also appears in later stages, with a black exoskeleton, a red belly, red eyes and purple limbs. This version's Dash Grab lasts longer, and he can change directions while dashing. He also has access to the Pinpoint Kick. In addition, he can also dash diagonally while in the air, and will send out four Bugzzy Jrs. instead of two.

The appearance of Bugzzy is similar to that of a beetle, but he stands up, and has arms and different legs. Bugzzy somewhat resembles and acts like the Pokémon Heracross.

In battle, Bugzzy can shoot ladybugs. He can also stomp on Kirby, and toss him around. He will typically attack by either charging straight forward or jumping on Kirby from above. In Kirby Star Allies, he is also capable of lunging from the air. In games before Kirby Star Allies, Bugzzy does not drop Recoil Stars when he attacks, meaning that only his ladybugs can be used against him.

Allow me to introduce our swords-model extraordinaire! The big beetle--Bugzzy!
— N.M.E. Sales Guy in the episode Kirby's Duel Role

In Kirby: Right Back at Ya!, Bugzzy appears in episode 3, Kirby's Duel Role, as a monster ordered by King Dedede. Unlike the games, he towers over Kirby and also attacks with hand-held weapons, like a sword and notched club. Kirby defeats this version of Bugzzy by inhaling his sword to gain the Sword ability, then slicing him in two down the middle.

Bugzzy - Brawl Trophy.png "One of Kirby's foes. Those unlucky enough to get too close will get body-slammed with Bugzzy's vicious pincers. He also releases smaller bugs. Kirby can copy the ability to body-slam by inhaling him. In Kirby's Fun Pak, this ability is called quick stamping. It's just one of many pro-wrestling moves he uses." Kirby Super Star

BugzzyTrophy3DS.png "This enemy is a huge wrestling fan—he'll do his best to try out some wrestling moves on his enemies. If Kirby manages to avoid his attacks and swallow him, Kirby can bust out some wrestling moves too. Bugzzy can also release ladybugs to attack, but I think that's against wrestling rules..." "This enemy is really into wresting. In fact, he's just dying to give Kirby a hands-on demonstration of his suplex skills. Sometimes he releases ladybirds into battle, but...surely that sort of thing's against the rules in wrestling. If Kirby manages to inhale this hostile beastie, he'll be able to pull off some nifty wrestling moves, too!"
