'''Togezo''' is a spiky shell-wearing [[enemy]] that has made only a few appearances in the [[Kirby (series)|''Kirby'' series]], first appearing in ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]''. It is a small black creature with stubby red feet and glowing eyes which wears a shell on its head covered in spikes. Its appearance is similar to [[mariowiki:Spiny|Spiny]] from the [[mariowiki:Mario (franchise)|''Mario'' franchise]], which has the same Japanese name (as such, Togezo in the ''Kirby'' series is likely a direct reference to Spiny). [[Kirby]] can obtain the [[Needle]] [[Copy Ability]] by inhaling and swallowing this foe. | '''Togezo''' is a spiky shell-wearing [[enemy]] that has made only a few appearances in the [[Kirby (series)|''Kirby'' series]], first appearing in ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]''.

However, after a short time, Togezo reverts to its initial state and form of movement. | ||
In ''[[Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land]]'', Togezo was replaced by the similar enemy [[Needlous]], who has since become the main provider of the Needle Copy Ability. Togezo has not appeared in any ''Kirby'' game since ''[[Kirby's Dream Land 3]]''. | In ''[[Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land]]'', Togezo was replaced by the similar enemy [[Needlous]], who has since become the main provider of the Needle Copy Ability.

In the game's remake, ''[[Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land]]'', Togezos are among the three types of adversaries to have been replaced, the others being [[Bounder]] and [[Rolling Turtle]]. In Togezo's case, it has been replaced by [[Needlous]], which acts the same, but greatly differs in appearance. | In the game's remake, ''[[Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land]]'', Togezos are among the three types of adversaries to have been replaced, the others being [[Bounder]] and [[Rolling Turtle]].

Togezo's most recent appearance is in ''[[Kirby's Dream Land 3]]'', where it is encountered several times throughout the game, first appearing in the [[Grass Land - Stage 6|stage six]] of [[Grass Land (Kirby's Dream Land 3)|Grass Land]]. It retains its shell and spike colors from ''Kirby's Dream Course'', but now possesses red feet and yellow eyes (red in its artwork). The appearance of its carapace has also changed; it has a much flatter rim, keeping it from covering the creature's back completely. Like in ''Kirby's Adventure'', Togezos initially pace left and right. However, their behavior has been altered to be reminiscent of [[Spikey]] from ''[[Kirby's Dream Land 2]]'', as they hide in their shells and extend their thorns when Kirby is within a certain vicinity. Doing so renders them immobile, but not invincible, enabling Kirby to easily inhale or attack them. | Togezo's most recent appearance is in ''[[Kirby's Dream Land 3]]'', where it is encountered several times throughout the game, first appearing in the [[Grass Land - Stage 6|stage six]] of [[Grass Land (Kirby's Dream Land 3)|Grass Land]].
