Flying Man's appearance in Mother.

Flying Men are a mythical species of birds with distinct human qualities. Flying Men are bipedal creatures that live in groups in different Magicants. They are very kind and are always ready to help. Ninten or Ness may decide to take a Flying Man with them while in Magicant, where they will help them in battle with enemies. They cannot be taken out of Magicant, however. If a Flying Man happens to fall in battle, a grave will be set up by their home. In Earthbound, their tombstone has different inscriptions for each Flying Man, getting more dismal with each death. The fourth Flying Man warns the player not to 'treat us like trash'. Flying men cannot be revived. In both EarthBound and Mother, there are only five Flying Men available. Flying Men are said to represent either Ninten or Ness's courage.

Super Smash Bros.

Flying Men make an appearance in the Magicant stage of Super Smash Bros 4. Here, they play a similar role to their Earthbound appearance, helping the first player to touch them. They can be killed, and a grave will appear whenever a Flying Man appears. Five Flying Men will appear in a single match.

Trophy description

The Flying Men are a team of five birdmen. Each time a Flying Man appears, he'll help the first person to reach him with Flying Cross Chops and Somersault Kicks. A small memorial stone will be erected for each one defeated. Once all five are gone, they're done fighting forever until the next battle.

Trivia

Groucho giving a Flying Man experience points.
  • In Mother, the enemy, Groucho, by saying hello and walking away, can allow a Flying Man to gain experience points. This, however, does nothing, as Flying Man is already at the max level of 99 in Mother. It is the only uncontrollable player character able to visibly gain experience points.

The Flying Men are the only temporary party members in the series to be entirely optional They are also the only potential party members that appear in more than one game.
