'''Buzz Blobs'''{{Ref|''[[The Legend of Zelda: Encyclopedia]]'', pg. 170}} are recurring enemies in [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda'' series]]. These enemies are covered with electricity and do share some similarities to [[ChuChu]]s. Unlike most ChuChus from other ''Zelda'' games, if [[Link]] attacks them with his sword alone, he will take damage from the electric shock. The best way to defeat them is with ranged weapons. Non-electrified versions of these enemies, known simply as [[Blob]]s can be found in numerous Zelda titles.

Buzz Blobs are light world enemies in this game. They are common in north-east Hyrule. Many can be found near the [[Witch's Hut]]. They move slowly, but their electricity can make them a nuisance. There are many ways to defeat them. Stunning or freezing Buzz Blobs can remove the effects of their electricity, making it possible to hit them with a [[sword]]. Ranged weapons, such as the [[bow|bow and arrow]], make defeating them a bit easier. However, the most efficient way to defeat a Buzz Blob is with the Golden Sword.

Using the magic powder will turn it into a [[cukeman]].

Buzz Blobs are strange green enemies made of goo. Electricity flows through their bodies, and Link will get shocked if making contact or attacking with the sword. Buzz Blobs will wander around randomly, and are not aggressive to Link. Using the boomerang, bow, or the magic rod are all effective methods of defeating a Buzz Blob. By sprinkling magic powder on a Buzz Blob it will turn into a Cukeman.

These enemies look exactly like Buzz Blobs in other games, though they have no electrical charge. They can be found almost anywhere in [[Hyrule]], except for caves and dungeons. They can be easily defeated with the sword.

Buzz Blobs are cousins and stronger versions of regular Blobs. They appear wherever regular Blobs do, and cannot normally be defeated with the sword. To lower their defenses, [[Link]] can use the [[Tornado Rod]] on them, reverting them to Blobs for a limited time. The [[Lamp]] and [[Bug Net|Net]] can also be used to defeat them.
