Character from EarthBound by Shigesato Itoi / Nintendo
A tiny rhinoceros beetle from ten years in the future who delivers the prophecy that launches the entire adventure — then gets swatted to death by Pokey's mom.
Buzz Buzz is the herald of EarthBound's entire story, and his death is its first great joke. He emerges from the meteorite that crashes north of Onett, explains that the universe will be destroyed by Giygas, and identifies Ness as one of four children prophesied to stop it. He accompanies Ness home, casts PSI Shield Sigma on the entire party during the Starman Junior fight, and is generally the most powerful ally Ness will ever have. Then Lardna Minch — Pokey's mother — mistakes him for a dung beetle and smacks him dead. With his dying breath, Buzz Buzz gives Ness the Sound Stone and tells him to seek the eight Your Sanctuary locations. His death is played both for laughs and genuine pathos. The entire fate of the universe was riding on a bug that got slapped by an angry woman in a bathrobe. His tombstone in Magicant reads: "He appeared earlier in the game and gave up the ghost before he achieved his goal."
A small insect, no bigger than a real beetle. Glows faintly. Arrives in a burst of light from the meteorite. Despite his size, radiates an aura of tremendous psychic power. His grave appears later in Magicant.
