King Dedede
This King Dedede is the classic Dedede boss seen throughout the Kirby series.
Like the my previous boss (The Yellow Devil), this character is playable, and attacks
go on cooldowns when played as.
This boss can also go offstage. He cannot fall into blaztzones, however.
King Dedede also has a hurtstun mechanic like the Yellow Devil, however the actual
hurtstun works differently. When in hurtstun, King Dedede can actually be knocked
around by attacks. It is also possible to stun Dedede briefly when he’s hit hard
enough.
King Dedede cannot move by simply moving left or right. He moves by using his
attacks.
King Dedede can also stand on platforms, and drop through them down is hard
pressed, or when down is held while in air.
Masked Dedede is also included, givng upgrades to all his current moves and giving
him 3 new ones. He’s also harder to stun in this form. Press the mask button on the
css to turn it on or off. Their is also a 3rd option to have it occur as a 2nd phase.
The classic tackle move everyone knows about. When attack is held down, Dedede
will keep walking. The walk cycle automatically ends when he reaches an edge.
*Masked Upgrades*
The tackle goes farther and hits harder.
While inhaling, attack or special can be held down to make him contiune inhaling.
The attack will automatically end is no one is inhaled for too long. Dedede can
inhale up to 3 opponents, which can be spat out (occurs automatically and not
manually) left or right. Has the same walking mechanic as the tackle.
*Masked Upgrades*
Gains the additions from his enraged phase in Kirby’s Dreamland 2. Dedede moves
forward slightly while inhaling, and will spit a star after inhaling long enough if an
opponent was not inhaled. The time before spitting is also shortened.
King Dedede will run forward with his hammer up while attack is held down.
He will swing his hammer down if attack is let go or if he reaches an edge.
A star is also created from his hammer if comes into contact with ground or
platforms, but it doesn’t cause knockback or hitpause. Dedede can also jump while
running. He can still hold his hammer when attack is held down, but he will also
swing when he lands.
*Masked Upgrades*
Hammer hits harder. Dedede cannot flinch (but can still go into hurtstun) during
the attack. If Dedede jumps, his hammer will create an electric shockwave instead
of a star upon ground collision.
A jump that damages players when falling. 2 stars are also created when landing,
which will be able to damage players for a brief moment.
*Masked Upgrades*
Jumps are faster and jump can be held down to jump up to 2 more times.
King Dedede bloats up with air and can start flying. He can only deal damage when
flying forward. If attack is pressed or he’s been inflated for long enough, he’ll release
a puff of air. Dedede can be pushed back from other attacks while flying.
*Masked Upgrades*
Cannot be pushed back.
Dedede charges up a series of spins, where they get faster and more powerful shortly.
He can move left and right slowly and, to make the move useful when platforms are
around, holding up or jump will cause Dedede to rise upwards. Dedede cannot go offstage
while spinning, even if he’s in the air. He’ll get dizzy afterward, briefly making him vulnerable.
Dedede’s hammer opens up and fires 3 missiles consecutively. These missiles are always fired
up to down. Shares DStrong’s cooldown.
Dedede’s hammer opens up and spews forth flames. It lasts for a while, but shield can be
pressed to end the flamethrower early. Shares UStrong’s cooldown.
My first character to have a full set of 31 alternate colors… and that’s only because their
are so many screams.
Villager (& Kitimek)*
Boxing Ring
Mt. Dedede Stadium
Wily Castle
Pokemon Stadium
Outskirts Invasion
*Villager & Kitimek also have unique interactions with Dedede’s stars. When they are
thrown, they work like stars spat out by Kirby. They always stun Dedede unless otherwise
mentioned in one of his attacks.
