There are many entities in the Kirby series that are either variants of Waddle Dees, distinguished Waddle Dees, or similar to Waddle Dees. They are as follows:

Variants of Waddle Dees

• Waddle Dee - Standard variety of Waddle Dees who carry no additional equipment. They can be seen holding still, walking, jumping, chasing Kirby, sleeping, fleeing, riding a Nruff, or in more specific situations. They provide no Copy Ability when swallowed.
• Big Waddle Dee - A larger than usual Waddle Dee. These can also be inhaled, but this typically takes more effort on Kirby's part, and can be spat out as a Blaster Bullet.
  • Grandy - Another variety of Big Waddle Dee that appears in Kirby: Triple Deluxe and Kirby: Planet Robobot.
• Parasol Waddle Dee - Waddle Dees who carry a Parasol. They can be seen in most of the same situations as standard Waddle Dees, but will also float gently through the air. Attacking them can cause them to drop their Parasol, which will then float away. Swallowing them with their parasol grants the Parasol ability. This variety of Waddle Dee is playable as a Helper in [[Kirby Super Star|Template:KSS KFP]], its remake, and Kirby Star Allies, and is also a playable combatant in Kirby Battle Royale.
• Waddle Dee Steel Fortress - A group of Waddle Dees in a steel fortress in Kirby: Triple Deluxe. They are battled using the Hypernova ability.
• Spear Waddle Dee - Waddle Dees who carry spears. Some carry them pointed up, some carry them pointed forward, and some will try to toss them at Kirby. These provide no ability when swallowed, but this will likely change should they appear in a future game with the Spear ability.
• Soldier Waddle Dee - A Waddle Dee who, in addition to having a spear, also has a soldier's hat. These guys serve King Dedede, and may partner with him in battles in Kirby Battle Royale.
• Lumberjack Waddle Dee - Waddle Dees wearing green hats and wielding axes. They linger in the background and chop down large trees which can fall on Kirby.
• Raft Waddle Dee - A Waddle Dee who rides an inflatable raft over water. These can be found only in Kirby's Dream Land 3.
• Fluff Waddle Dee - A Waddle Dee from [[Kirby: Canvas Curse|Template:KCC KPP]] who clings to a giant seed of cotton.
• Swinging Waddle Dee - A Waddle Dee who swings from a rope.
• Puppet Waddle Dee - A large wooden suit operated by three Waddle Dees, meant to resemble a big Waddle Dee. It can be busted open to reveal the three Waddle Dees inside, or inhaled whole.
  • Armor Waddle Dee - A tougher variety of Puppet Waddle Dee, made of metal.
• Walker Waddle Dee - A Waddle Dee who operates a suit of mechanical legs. The legs have to be destroyed first before the Waddle Dee can be dealt with. Walkers can also be equipped with cannons and/or jets. The missiles the cannons shoot provide the Bomb ability if swallowed.
• Driver Waddle Dee - A Waddle Dee who drives a car, bus or other vehicle. These can be seen primarily in Resolution Road and Rhythm Route.
• Gold Waddle Dee - A rare variety of Waddle Dee with golden fur. They can run very fast, and often carry Treasure Chests.
• Toughness Waddle Dee - A Waddle Dee made of shining steel. He cannot be defeated or inhaled, and is meant to serve as a dummy for Copy Ability training.
• Block Waddle Dee - A Big Waddle Dee which resides inside of a Star Block. Appears only in Kirby Mass Attack.
• Waddle Dee portrait - A painting of a Waddle Dee that throws bombs at the Kirbys if they go near one. Appears only in Kirby Mass Attack.
• Rolling Waddle Dee - Waddle Dees rolling down slopes, often packed into tight ball formations. Appears in Kirby Star Allies.

Distinguished Waddle Dees

The following Waddle Dees are noteworthy as individuals in the series, and usually have some article of clothing to distinguish themselves from others:

• Bandana Waddle Dee - A Waddle Dee distinguished by his blue bandana. He is one of King Dedede's most loyal subjects, but is also good friends with Kirby, forcing him to sometimes choose between the two. He is playable in [[Kirby's Return to Dream Land|Template:KRtDL KAW]] and Kirby Star Allies, where he wields a Spear, and serves as Kirby's ally in Kirby Battle Royale, where he uses a Parasol.
• Sailor Waddle Dee - A Waddle Dee who wears a sailor's cap. He is one of the crew members of the Halberd, and was the last of Meta Knight's crew to jump ship. He was last seen in Team Kirby Clash Deluxe, though only as a cameo.
• Waddle Dee (from Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards) - One of Kirby's good friends, who accompanies him on his journey to collect the Crystal Shards. He is the only Waddle Dee in that game, so he has no distinguishing features.
• Channel PPP Crew - A crew of four Waddle Dees carrying film equipment. They were introduced outside of the games, on Kirby's official Twitter feed, but eventually made their way into a game in Kirby Battle Royale.
• Colossal Waddle Dee - A very large Waddle Dee who serves as the first encounter in Team Kirby Clash Deluxe. He is quite tough compared to his smaller cousins, but moves very sluggishly.
• Colossal Spear Waddle Dee - A variant of Colossal Waddle Dee that serves as the second encounter at the Seaside in Super Kirby Clash who has a giant spear.
• Wise Waddle Dee - A knowledgeable Waddle Dee who wears a scholar's hat and glasses who appears in Kirby and the Forgotten Land.

Relatives of Waddle Dee

These creatures are not Waddle Dees (arguably), but are very similar in look and/or behavior (and may be biologically related):

• Waddle Doo - A creature with a similar body shape and behavior to Waddle Dees, but has a face consisting only of a large singular eye and a couple eyelashes. It fires a beam whip from its eye, and provide the Beam ability when swallowed. Parasol-wielding variants also exist.
• Wapod - This creature resembles a ghostly Waddle Dee, but their relationship has not been concretely confirmed.
• Batamon - A pink creature who behaves like a Waddle Dee, but looks more like Kirby. It is debatable whether these creatures are related to Kirby or not.

• N-Z - A dark grey creature made by Dark Matter. It looks and acts similarly to a Waddle Dee, though it has pointy ears and no arms. This creature fills the role of Waddle Dees in Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards due to the presence of a distinguished Waddle Dee.
