Spike Top



Spike Tops are similar to Buzzy Beetles, except their shells are red and have a single spike projecting out of the top, making them impossible to be jumped upon. They first appeared in Super Mario World. They are blue in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door.

 * Tattle: This is Spike Top. Spike Tops have spikes on top. Duh! They're tough, just like Buzzy Beetles, and fire attacks don't affect 'em at all. But their defense power drops if you can flip 'em over.

 * Tattle Log: This Buzzy has high Defense and a pointy spike on its shell. You'll take damage if you stomp on it.
 * Tattle: That's a Spike Top. It's a Buzzy Beetle with a spike on its back. Max HP is 5, Attack is 3, and Defense is 4. Like other Buzzies, fire and explosions have absolutely no effect on it. But, you can flip it over to drop its Defense to 0! I'm sure you know this already, but try not to jump on it.  That spike hurts.
