'''Bzzit''' is a character who appears in a number of games in the ''Rayman'' series. He is a giant [[mosquito]], but he is much weaker than his counterpart, [[Moskito]], whom he is often mistaken for by players because he shares his appearance and colours in most versions of [[Rayman 1|the original ''Rayman'' game]].

Several [[mosquito]]es make an appearance in the ''[[Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc|Rayman 3]]'' minigame [[2D Madness]] and in the [[Dreamy Forest]] race track of ''[[Rayman Kart]]'', though Bzzit does not appear to be among them.

Bzzit first appeared unnamed in the original ''[[Rayman 1|Rayman]]'', where he is encountered in [[Anguish Lagoon]]. He is the first mini-boss, and once he is defeated by [[Rayman]], he collapses and starts sobbing. [[Rayman]] stops his victory dance to comfort him, and they soon become friends fast, Bzzit helping him cross the rest of the lagoon by offering a ride on his back. In the Atari Jaguar version of the game, he can shoot balls of energy with his proboscis.

As a boss, Bzzit is always airborne, but has less than half of the health points [[Moskito]] has, making him much weaker. He attacks by swooping horizontally at [[Rayman]], sometimes at his head level (where [[Rayman]] can hit him head on) or near the ground (he can hit him by throwing his [[telescopic fist]] and then ducking immediately), and by stinging him with his proboscis. He also tries to dodge [[Rayman]]'s attacks using his small wings, and every time he is hit, he flies high in the air and out of view for a brief moment before attacking.

In the original version of ''[[Rayman 2: The Great Escape|Rayman 2]]'', [[mosquito]]es, members of Bzzit's species, make brief appearances in [[the Woods of Light]]. In the Sega Dreamcast version of ''[[Rayman 2: The Great Escape|Rayman 2]]'', these mosquitoes also appear in many other levels throughout the game. In ''[[Rayman Revolution]]'', Bzzit himself makes a reappearance. He was first mentioned by a [[baby Globox]] in [[the Minisaurus Plain]], who tells Rayman that [[Robo-Pirate Army|the Pirates]] have captured his friend Bzzit; later, the [[Teensie]]s at the [[Teensie Circle]] in [[the Minisaurus Plain]] told [[Rayman]] that Bzzit was being held prisoner in a forcefield (akin to the one [[Ly]] was held prisoner in at [[the Fairy Glade]]) in [[the Bayou]]. He was the only one who could ferry someone from [[the Pier]] to [[the Lost Island]] (the location of [[the Sanctuary of Water and Ice]] in [[Rayman Revolution|this version]]), so when [[Rayman]] saved him, Bzzit gladly offered him to hop into his boat and took him to the island in search of the first of [[Polokus]]'s [[Four Masks of Polokus|masks]].
