Livewire

Livewire is an enemy in Banjo-Tooie and Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge. In Banjo-Tooie, Livewires seemed less like an enemy and more like an obstacle, taking the form of insulated electrical wires with large holes torn in their sides which will periodically discharge arcs of electricity. Banjo can climb these wires or Grip Grab across them, but if proper timing is not used, he may be shocked and knocked off.

In Grunty's Revenge, Livewires appear as snake-like wires coming off of walls or objects which will lash back and forth violently, threatening to shock Banjo if he comes too close. They can be defeated using the Wonderwing.
