Starman

This article details the regular Starman and the Starman race as a whole. For different variants, see Starman (disambiguation).

Starmen are a race of robotic aliens that appear in EarthBound Beginnings and EarthBound, and have many different variants. They are Giygas's main henchmen, alongside the Mooks, and because of this are very iconic enemies of the series. Despite this, however, they are completely absent in Mother 3.

Starmen first appear in EarthBound Beginnings as very common enemies, first appearing in Spookane's hotel as a boss, disguised as a hotel worker, and becomes a regular enemy from that point on. Starmen in-battle are capable of unleashing the deadly PK Beam series of attacks, including PK Beam γ, which can instantly kill one party member.

Stonehenge

Starmen in EarthBound comparatively do not appear in their regular form as much as they do in EarthBound Beginnings, only appearing in Stonehenge base. There are many other variants, however. Unlike most enemies, they travel by using teleportation, a trait shared with the similar Starman Super.

EarthBound Player's Guide description

"The Starman often warps into the middle of the party to attack. This robot is the primary sentry in the Stonehenge base. Watch out for his beam weapon and PSI magnet attacks."


Super Smash Bros. series

A Starman trophy is obtainable in Super Smash Bros. Melee, while a Starman sticker is obtainable in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, adding Attack +10 in the Subspace Emissary mode. Starman is now also a new assist trophy in Super Smash Bros. 4. He teleports around, firing PK Beam γ and Ω. In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Starman returns as an assist trophy. When Starman is KO'd in both games, he will be sent flying with a Smaaaaash! graphic appearing. Starman also has a Spirit in Ultimate

Trophy information

Super Smash Bros. Melee

Name Image NTSC-U Description
Starman Starman SSBM Trophy.png Just one kooky subset of the diverse cast of enemies in EarthBound, these strange creatures are aliens in the employ of Giygas. Variations of the Starman race include Starman, Starman Jr., Starman Deluxe, and Starman Super. They all use PSI powers, but their strength differs depending on the level on which they're found.

Super Smash Bros. 4

Name Image NTSC-U Description
Starman Starman SSB4 Trophy.png These alien henchmen serve Giygas, the chief villain of EarthBound. In Smash Bros., the assist trophy Starman will teleport around and fire off PSI moves like PK Beam γ or PK Beam Ω. You can defeat one summoned by an opponent, but they won't go down without a fight.
