As they believe they are the only species who have the right to fly, they have stopped all attempts by the Blodex to achieve air and space-flight for generations. Though they do not appear industrious, the Bzzzz seem to be advanced enough to create portable side arms that fire either a corrosive substance or energy bolts which they carry into battle. The fact that they are ruled by a Bzzzz Queen also indicates they are hive-minded and may not have any concept of individuality. Their long-running war was interrupted by the arrival of Sonic the Hedgehog, who attempted to use the Red Chaos Emeralds to power up and defeat the Bzzzz. He accidentally created a separate version of Super Sonic in the process, but despite this many Bzzzz and their Queen were killed and the Blodex saved. (StH: #126)
