'''Soldier Waddle Dees''' (referred to as simply '''Soldiers''' during battle) are non-playable combatants from ''[[Kirby Battle Royale]]''. They appear in the story mode - [[Dedede's Cake Royale]] - and serve the king. In battles, they wield a [[Spear]], and can come in several different colors, like the playable [[Waddle Dee]] who uses a [[Parasol]]. Several can be seen around the palace in the story mode, guarding entrances and guarding [[King Dedede]].

Soldier Waddle Dee resembles a [[Waddle Dee|Spear Waddle Dee]] from previous titles, but is distinguished by its fancy guardsman's hat, and its seemingly eternally dour expression (though this may just be an appearance put on by the brow of his helmet). Several can be seen around the palace in the story mode, guarding entrances and guarding [[King Dedede]].


[[Kirby]] has to face off against Soldier Waddle Dees in several instances. The first is when he and [[Bandana Waddle Dee]] are trying to gain entrance to the tournament. A soldier challenges Kirby to a game of [[Apple Scramble]] to qualify, which also serves as a tutorial round. From there, two soldiers will later need to be faced in the Bronze League Qualifiers. The last time they are faced is when they team up with King Dedede at the end of the Platinum League.

==Characteristics==
Soldier Waddle Dees resemble [[Spear Waddle Dee]]s from previous titles, but are distinguished by their fancy guardsman's hats, and their seemingly eternally dour expressions (though this may just be an appearance put on by the brow of the hat).
==In the ''Kirby'' novel series==
[[File:V10 Illustration 7.png|thumb|120px|An illustration of a Soldier Waddle Dee from ''Kirby's Decisive Battle! Battle Royale!!''.]]
In the [[Kirby (novel series)|''Kirby'' novel series]], Soldier Waddle Dees make an appearance in ''[[Kirby's Decisive Battle! Battle Royale!!]]''. A solider Waddle Dee guards the gate of the Battle Castle and once [[Kirby (novel character)|Kirby]] sees him, he is shocked by his similarity to [[Waddle Dee (novel character)|Waddle Dee]]. When Kirby approaches him, the Soldier Waddle Dee tells him that the only ones who can pass are those ready for a battle and challenges him for a match of [[Apple Scramble]]. While Kirby needs to gather apples from [[Whispy Woods]], the Soldier Waddle Dee gathers them from a regular tree. He shakes the tree and piles up all the apples. When the time for the match is over, it is revealed that the Soldier Waddle Dee gathered less apples and thus lost. After the match, the Soldier Waddle Dee lets Kirby and Waddle Dee pass the gate. Later, a Soldier Waddle Dee guards the elevator to the top floor, not letting Waddle Dee in. [[Cron]] gives the Soldier Waddle Dee sleeping medication to let Waddle Dee pass him.

*While several of the soldiers are indeed loyal to King Dedede, some of them are (whether openly or not) rooting for Kirby instead.
*While several of the soldiers are indeed loyal to King Dedede, some of them are (whether openly or not) rooting for Kirby instead.
*The view on Soldier Waddle Dees seems to differ between the common Waddle Dees. The Waddle Dee at the start of the game states that "the guard ahead scares [him]", another one says he thinks the soldiers aren't working at all and another one says he looks up to them and wishes to become a soldier when he grows up.
