Electro Swoosh is a type of enemy inEarthBound, appearing inMagicant. It resembles a pair of eyes with several lightning bolts above them. It can use electric shock attacks and also greetNess.
It is based on the various floating eye enemies from the Magicant ofEarthBound Beginnings (theWatcher,Dadseyes,Momseyes,Foureyes, andGroucho, whose names are more literally translated from the Japanese version as Swoosh, Papa Swoosh, Swooshette, Woosh Swoosh, and Bonus Swoosh, respectively). The Electro Swoosh's "greeting" is also similar to the way Grouchos say hello before walking away, though Electro Swooshes are incapable of prematurely ending the battle like Grouchos.

EarthBound Player's Guide description
"This enemy believes in shock treatment, but if you use Freeze against it, it won't have time to charge itself up."
Trivia
- Oddly, the Player's Guide states that usingPSI Freeze is effective against Electro Swooshes, but Ness can never learn it, and no other party members can legitimately go to Magicant.
