Beezley

"He may look cute, but watch out—don't be fooled by looks! This one's got a temper as bad as I've ever seen! He'll poke you with that stinger in his tail 'til you can't take anymore!! Try giving him a Jump Attack!!"

- Wario

Beezleys are bee enemies appearing in Wario Land 4, appearing to be specifically based on the bees from Wario Land II in appearance and behavior. They attack the player by flying at the player with their stinger, thus transforming the player into Puffy Wario if hit. Their first appearance in is in the level Wildflower Fields, the second level of the Emerald Passage. They also appear in the level Arabian Night in the Sapphire Passage, only when the player enters a pipe with a Beezley icon with a room full of Spiked Balls. When falling in, the Spiked Balls transform into Beezleys. They are required in the room in order to turn the player into Puffy Wario, allowing the player to reach a pipe that transforms the enemies into Miniculas which is required in order to get treasure.

If a Beezley goes into a flower, the flower turns into a pod that gradually grows larger. The player can hit the pod at any point to claim the coins inside, but if the pod is left alone for too long, the pod dries out, and thus the player receives a small amount of coins if the pod is hit in this state.

A Beezley appears briefly in the Wario Land 4 segment of volume 28 of Super Mario-Kun. It attacks Wario when Wario is sleeping, causing Wario to become Puffy Wario.
