Spiky Parabuzzy

A Spiky Parabuzzy, a.k.a. S. Parabuzzy, is a Parabuzzy and Spike Top hybrid. These creatures were first seen in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. They are mainly seen in the underground rooms in Riverside Station, and the Pit of 100 Trials at around floors 41-49. Since they have both wings and a spiked shell, they are tricky enemies. Mario needs a Spike Shield or a Hammer Throw badge to attack them safely. Spiky Parabuzzies lose their wings when stomped, causing them to become regular Spike Tops.

In Super Paper Mario, they also appear in several locations such as the Overthere Stair and Castle Bleck. They often fly up and down, trying to block Mario's path near a pit.

They also appear in Super Mario Maker, which can be produced by giving a Spike Top wings. If wings are applied, it will fly in a straight line, and jumping on them will cause damage, except if using a Goomba's Shoe or Yoshi. Like Parabuzzies, they fly upward whenever someone or something lands on their shell.
