'''Fecto Forgo''', also known as '''ID-F86''' and the '''Great One''', is a fractured alien life-form with immense psychic power and malevolent ambitions, which was introduced in ''[[Kirby and the Forgotten Land]]'' and is the overarching antagonist of the game. Prior to the events of the game, the creature had invaded the [[new world]] in its whole state as [[Fecto Elfilis]], and attempted to subsume all the life on the planet into itself, but it was stopped and contained by the civilization that lived there, and later subjected to experimentation in their [[Lab Discovera]]. There, the new world civilization was able to learn from the creature's abilities how to develop "planetary warp" technology, allowing them to ascend into a "land of dreams" and leave their world behind forever. Before they left, however, a "warp-experiment incident" caused Fecto Elfilis to split into two beings: one of which was the remnant Fecto Forgo who remained in stasis, and the other of which was [[Elfilin]], who managed to escape, but with no memory of his previous connections or power.

In order to try and become whole again, Fecto Forgo used its psychic influence to control the mind of [[Leongar]], who then formed the [[Beast Pack]] and used it to try and gather power and reclaim Elfilin. Despite [[Kirby]]'s interference, Fecto Forgo managed to succeed at this task and reincorporate Elfilin into itself, but was then shortly dispatched by Kirby after Elfilin was re-separated. With its physical body destroyed, Fecto Forgo's soul fled into the realm of dreams and took Leongar's body with it, trying to subsume itself into his body as a replacement for its own. Kirby and Elfilin venture into the [[Isolated Isles: Forgo Dreams|Isolated Isles of Forgo Dreams]] and stop this from happening by reclaiming the lost pieces of Leon's soul, and '''Soul Forgo''' tries to intervene, but is shortly subsumed by a familiar red-and-orange [[butterfly]] and incorporated into [[Morpho Knight]], using the same gag as in ''[[Kirby Star Allies]]'' with [[Galacta Knight]]. Its final form of [[Chaos Elfilis]] (the being created from Morpho Knight's energy after its defeat) is eventually defeated by Kirby, and the last remnants of Fecto Forgo's life energy then returns to Elfilin, ending the conflict for good.

==Etymology==
"Fecto" may come from "perfect", as Fecto Elfilis is known as the Perfect Lifeform in Japanese, Chinese, and Korean. "Forgo" is a shortened form of "forgotten", as their figure description states they were left forgotten by those who departed from the planet. In Japanese, their name フェクト・フォルガ is spelled like the word パー'''フェクト'''  "perfect", which is used in the Japanese name of the cutscene The Ultimate Life-Form, and '''フォルガ'''トゥン Forgotten, which is used instead of just "Forgo" at the beginning of the Japanese level names in Forgo Dreams. This also applies to the Korean version as well.
The origin of Fecto Forgo's name has not been concretely confirmed. "Fecto" may come from "perfect", as Fecto Elfilis is known as the Perfect Lifeform in Japanese, Chinese, and Korean. "Forgo" is likely a shortened form of "forgotten", as their figure description states they were left forgotten by those who departed from the planet. In Japanese, their name (フェクト・フォルガ) is spelled like the words パー'''フェクト'''  "perfect", which is used in the Japanese name of the cutscene The Ultimate Life-Form, and '''フォルガ'''トゥン "forgotten", which is used instead of just "Forgo" at the beginning of the Japanese stage names in Forgo Dreams. This also applies to the Korean version as well.

=== Fecto Forgo (Larva) ===
The larval state of Fecto Forgo is first seen in [[Lab Discovera]], inside the Eternal Capsule. This form resembles a giant embryo or fetus that vaguely resembles Elfilin, though heavily deformed and with visible energy coursing through its veins. It is in this state that it is known as the "Great One" by Leongar and the Beast Pack. It is implied (and directly stated in the Japanese, Chinese, and Korean versions) that this form of Fecto Forgo is unstable, and would quickly dissolve if it were to leave its capsule, so Fecto Forgo is left to concoct its plan by remotely affecting the minds of creatures throughout the new world, including most notably Leongar and [[King Dedede]].

When Kirby foils Fecto Forgo's initial carefully-laid plan, it gives up any semblance of planning and instead breaks out of its capsule to subsume Leongar's body and the bodies of several other Beast Pack members, forming a hideous teal amalgam with the heads of all the creatures it had eaten, most notably including Leongar's face, which is now red and deformed, and one of his arms. In this state, Fecto Forgo is fought as the second boss of [[Lab Discovera]].

The specific enemies seen in Fecto Forgo's amalgam form, from left to right, are as follows: a [[Poison Croakom]], four [[Sssnacker]]s, a [[Digguh]], a [[Balloon-Meister]], a [[Primal Awoofy]], an [[Orabiroo]], a [[Gnawcodile]], and Leongar, whose head now sports the ear of a [[Bernard]] and the horn of a [[Buffahorn]]. Notably, all these enemies are new to ''Kirby and the Forgotten Land'', and are members of the [[Beast Pack]].

Notably, all these enemies are new to ''Kirby and the Forgotten Land'', and are members of the [[Beast Pack]].


The battle against Fecto Forgo is a running fight, as Kirby needs to keep ahead to avoid making contact with the creature's blob-like form. At regular intervals, the creature lunges at Kirby and tries to bite him using Leongar's head, which creates [[Dropped Star]]s on either side. It may also throw pieces of itself at Kirby as projectiles which linger on the ground and also produce Dropped Stars. Along the way, a number of ability-providing enemies appear which Kirby can use to gain an ability or as ammunition. These enemies include [[Bernard]], [[Sir Kibble]], and [[Hothead]], which loop in that order.

If Kirby doesn't defeat the amalgamation in under approximately three minutes, the long corridor will reach a dead end, and Fecto Forgo will stop moving and throwing pieces toward Kirby. Kirby no longer needs to run away at this point, and it will only attack by using its lunging bite.

In their whole form, Fecto Forgo and Elfilin combine to form [[Fecto Elfilis]], the "Ultimate Life-Form". Kirby has to battle this creature at the helipad atop the lab as the final boss of [[Lab Discovera]]. In this form, Fecto Elfilis has the ability to fly freely through the air, attack with a long spear, and create gigantic dimensional rifts. Eventually, Kirby is able to free Elfilin from Fecto Elfilis' body. Even when this is done, however, Fecto Elfilis still has time to try and invoke the Roche Limit on both [[Planet Popstar]] and the new world before it disintegrates, and Kirby has to stop it with the help of Elfilin and a [[Big-Rig Mouth|Big-Rig truck]].

==Trivia==
*In the Japanese text, Fecto Forgo's dialogue is written in a mix between [[wikipedia:hiragana|hiragana]] — the typical writing system used in Japanese — and [[wikipedia:katakana|katakana]] — the writing system used for foreign words, emphasis, or strange or unfamiliar pronunciation. As its dialogue continues, it gradually uses less hiragana and more katakana.<ref>{{quote|おのれェ…<br>あれは{{furi|一体|いったい}}、なんダ…？<br><br>あまたの {{furi|空間|くうかん}}カラ<br>つかエルモノを {{furi|引|ひ}}きヨセタガ…<br>あんな ジャマモノガ まざってイタトハ…<br><br>マァ ヨィ…<br>モハヤ… サクを ネルノモ メンドウダ…<br><br>{{large|スベテ {{furi|喰|く}}ロウテ クレヨウ…！}}|Fecto Forgo's dialogue in the "Sudden Metamorphosis" cutscene (Japanese version)}}</ref> This gives the impression that speech is so taxing on Fecto Forgo, it loses its grasp on language as it continues to speak. In the English localization, it instead speaks in short, fragmented sentences, as if speech is so taxing, it can only expend the bare minimum of energy.
*Fecto Forgo is the only boss in ''Kirby and the Forgotten Land'' that doesn't have a harder version of its fight, with it being replaced by Morpho Knight in The Ultimate Cup Z. It is also the only boss that doesn't have an ability room directly before it, though ability-providing enemies appear within the boss fight itself.

*Fecto Forgo's color scheme is possibly based on diaphonization; the scientific process in which animal specimens are chemically dyed as a form of preservation.
*If the Eternal Capsule is entered via the Hammer Super Jump glitch after defeating Leongar, the background will turn gray.
