Information
An undead creature resembling a Buzzy Beetle. Its shell extends and retracts spikes in response to attacks. Like with a Dry Bones compared to a Koopa, the shell here counts as part of its body instead of as a suit of armor being worn.
Notes
- Bony Beetles have two forms: one where the back of their shell is smooth, and one where it's covered in spikes. When their spikes are extended, they count as Spiky, and thier basic attack deals 5 damage instead of 3. The spikes extend or retract every time the Bony Beetle takes damage from an attack (only changing once for multiple-hit attacks), but not if an attack deals no damage or is interrupted by Spikiness, and not if the attack flips the Bony Beetle over. A Bony Beetle may begin battle in either form, including multiple Bony Beetles starting in different forms.
