Starman

:This article details the regular Starman and the Starman race as a whole. For different variants, see Starman (disambiguation).
==History==
===EarthBound Beginnings===
Starmen first appear in EarthBound Beginnings as very common enemies, first appearing in Spookane's hotel as a boss, disguised as a hotel worker, and becomes a regular enemy from that point on. Starmen in-battle are capable of unleashing the deadly PK Beam series of attacks, including PK Beam γ, which can instantly kill one party member.
===EarthBound===
Starmen in EarthBound comparatively do not appear in their regular form as much as they do in EarthBound Beginnings, only appearing in Stonehenge base. There are many other variants, however. Unlike most enemies, they travel by using teleportation, a trait shared with the similar Starman Super.

===EarthBound Player's Guide description===
"The Starman often warps into the middle of the party to attack. This robot is the primary sentry in the Stonehenge base. Watch out for his beam weapon and PSI magnet attacks."
===Super Smash Bros. series===
A Starman trophy is obtainable in Super Smash Bros. Melee, while a Starman sticker is obtainable in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, adding Attack +10 in the Subspace Emissary mode. Starman is now also a new assist trophy in Super Smash Bros. 4. He teleports around, firing PK Beam γ and Ω. In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Starman returns as an assist trophy. When Starman is KO'd in both games, he will be sent flying with a graphic appearing. Starman also has a Spirit in Ultimate

==Trivia==
*In Creatures Inc.'s Chailien franchise, one of the Chailiens is No. 81 Hirokacha (Japanese: ヒロカチャ) who is simply a human-like figure with a star for its head; a possible reference to the Starmen in Mother and EarthBound. Hirokacha appears in the Game Boy Color game Chee Chai Alien and the Game Boy Advance spin-off Nonono Puzzle Chailien.
*Starman also refers to the invincibility powerup from Super Mario series. An enemy of the same name also appears in Kirby series.
*The extent to which Starmen are mechanical or biological lifeforms is fairly contentious, even among official sources. Rust promoters have no effect on Starmen of any kind, and the official Mother 2 guidebook classifies them as aliens rather than robots. However, the EarthBound Player's Guide refers to some members of the Starman family as aliens and some as robots. Most obviously, the Japanese versions of both of the first two games strongly imply that Starmen are mechanical in some way via their abnormal speech pattern of exclusively katakana, an implication that is shared by their English dialogue in EarthBound (which contains mechanical sound effects such as *click* and *whirr*).
