A '''Spiky Parabuzzy''', a.k.a. '''S. Parabuzzy''', is a [[Parabuzzy]] and [[Spike Top]] hybrid who first appeared in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. They are mainly seen in the underground rooms in [[Riverside Station]], and the [[Pit of 100 Trials (Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door)|Pit of 100 Trials]] at around floors 41-49. Since they have both wings and a spiked shell, they cannot be jumped on and they cannot be attacked with hammers; due to them being a type of Buzzy Beetle, fire and explosion attacks cannot hurt them. [[Mario]] needs a [[Spike Shield]], a [[Badge|Hammer Throw badge]], or an item to attack them safely, as well as having a partner who can attack air enemies without touching the spike. 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]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS]]'', 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 Parabeetles, they fly upward whenever someone or something lands on their shell.

|tattle=That's a Spiky Parabuzzy. As you can see, this Buzzy has wings and a spike... Max HP is 1, Attack is 2, and Defense is 3. Even flames won't scorch its hard shell... With the spike and wings and hard shell, I just don't know how to get rid of it... It's a pain to deal with, but still quite adorable...
