Lamp

The Lamp is the first boss in EarthBound Beginnings and thus is the very first in the whole Mother series. When the game opens to Ninten's home under the influence of a poltergeist, this possessed lamp attacks the boy, posing as his first enemy. Afterwards, Ninten must venture out into other parts of the household and defeat two other items also affected by the poltergeist, which include another Lamp and a Doll. The beginning of the game is the only appearance of the Lamp.
This is an unskippable boss fight as Ninten starts in his chair and must open the door to initiate the fight. The second lamp in Minnie’s room, however, can be skipped entirely.
== Battle ==
The Lamp is a very weak enemy, dealing low damage and being defeated in a few attacks. It can rarely do SMAAAASH!! attacks. Its battle theme is Battle With a Dangerous Foe.
=== Attacks ===
* Attack - The lamp attacks Ninten, dealing 1 HP of damage.
== Trivia ==
* When the Lamp is defeated, the text states that it doesn't move anymore but, different than the doll, it is not seen in the overworld after the battle.
* Lamps are one of the few enemies in Mother with an overworld sprite.
* The second lamp, like the first, will not reappear if the Doll is defeated even if it is left alive.
* In the companion guide, he is called "Lampstand" in Mother, and "Lamp" in EarthBound Beginnings and Mother 1 + 2.
** Their description reads, "This enemy has the honor of being the first one the lead character fights. He flies around the room by way of the mysterious poltergeist activity. He's not that big a deal, but it is super scary to imagine what's to come.".
