Beetos are one of the most common enemies in Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove, Shovel Knight Pocket Dungeon and Shovel Knight Dig. They appear in almost every stage of the Valley, possess only one hit point, and each time the player collides with them the player will lose half a health bubble. They can only attack the protagonists by walking into them. If hit with a weapon (other than Bombs), such as the Shovel Blade's Dig Slash, a Scythe's Slash or a Shoulder Bash, Beetos are flipped into the air upside down. From here they can either be juggled higher or used to Shovel Drop or Dash Slash to greater heights. This peculiar and unique feature is prominently used in the challenge Beeto's Big Break. Upon defeat they drop a 5 gold worth blue gem.
