The Bytan (バイタン, Bitan in Japan) is an enemy in Super Smash Bros. Brawl's Subspace Emissary mode and first appears in the Ruined Zoo level. It multiplies quickly, forcing the player to destroy it quickly before it gets out of hand. The Bytan comes in nine different colors: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, pink, brown, and black.

There are also giant-sized Bytans, which are about four times larger and have roughly three times more health.

No matter their size and color, though, a Trophy Stand thrown at them will transform them into the same trophy. They bear a resemblance to the Pokémon Voltorb and Electrode, a veteran of Smash Brothers and may be a nod to them. Also, in the Game Boy Cameras HotSpot Mode while editing pictures the place holder for the hot spot is a caricature of the actual Game Boy Camera and bears a striking resemblance. The Bytans also come in the various colors that the hardware was released in.

Trophy description

A spherical creature divided into two colors. There's a big, staring eye in the colored section, and the white part contains the creature's gaping mouth and exposed fangs. It rolls along and smashes into all enemies it meets. After a short time, it will pop another Bytan out of its eye, so if you leave it alone, it will continue to produce one Bytan after another.
