Arch-Enemy: He is one to Kirby, being his most persistent and personal foe across the franchise.One such case being in Kirby's Adventure, in which he breaks up the Star Rod to prevent Nightmare from returning and wrecking havoc. Anti-Villain: He can be a selfish and greedy Jerkass and his methods can more often than not bring him in conflict with Kirby, but he undeniably has good intentions most of the time.As far back as Kirby's Adventure, Dedede's been proactively defending Dream Land from much worse threats (when he's not being possessed by them) in his own unscrupulous ways, and more modern games seem to forgo Dedede's animosity with Kirby entirely in favor of portraying him as one of Kirby's True Companions. He's selfish, greedy, and tends not to hesitate when it comes to clobbering Kirby when their interests don't align, but he's never really gotten to the point of being evil. Anti-Hero: He's more commonly this than an outright villain.He's described as going on his own adventure to stop Queen Sectonia and her rule (and either stop her from ruling Dream Land, or try to take over Floralia as part of his territory). Another Side, Another Story: He gets his own "extra mode" run in form of Dededetour! in Triple Deluxe.Star Allies, though, shows that he releases roast chicken during the Cook Potluck/Supper Party attack, at least suggesting that he is at least a bird-like creature. In 2019, a Kirby Twitter post from Zan Partizanne called him a "mouthy penguin", but since that's in-character for her, there is still no definitive proof. One official guide calls him a "regal eagle", but likely wasn't meant to be taken literally. Unlike a penguin, he can fly, doesn't appear to have feathers, and his feet being attached to his body seemingly without legs may be because of art style more than anything. Ambiguous Species: He definitely looks like a penguin, but it's questionable if he's even a bird.Brawl, he hugs Kirby towards the end of The Subspace Emissary when he realizes he's alright. Of course, that doesn't mean he's not affable - in Super Smash Bros. Affably Evil: He's not really that bad a guy, he's just vain, extremely greedy, and occasionally mean-spirited.Adipose Rex: You would be hard-pressed to find a fatter individual in Dream Land, and none of them are claiming to be royalty either.Actually a Doombot: The first encounter with him and Meta Knight in Kirby Fighters 2 turns out to be a pair of Waddle Dees in disguise.Acrofatic: Depending on the game, he can be agile despite his size.Warning! Due to Dedede's nature as a former recurring villain, usually as a Final Boss, who eventually becomes a friend to Kirby, every spoiler from before Kirby's Return to Dream Land relating to his intentional villainy will be unmarked. For tropes that apply to his anime and light novel counterparts, go to the character pages for Kirby: Right Back at Ya! and Kirby (Light Novel). This page is for tropes that apply to his counterpart from the games. In the main series, however, he usually ends up as the villain by getting possessed by the whomever the real one is and has to be broken free of their control by Kirby. He's only been the Big Bad of the very first game and certain spin-offs. That, and he never really does anything related to administration, prefering to eat his own weight in food and cause general mischief. " You can't be mean to my Waddle Dees! Only I can be mean to my Waddle Dees!"Ī hammer-wielding penguin ( possibly) and the king of Dream Land, though nobody actually acknowledges him as such since said title's entirely self-proclaimed.
