'''Waddle Dees''' are a species of very peaceful creatures that are a common sight in [[Dream Land]], in the wider [[Popstar]] region, and on [[Planet|many other planets]]. Named for their waddling gait, Waddle Dees are about the same size as [[Kirby]], and have a slightly pear-shaped body with orange-red skin, fingerless stubs for arms, and two feet which are typically yellow, but may also be tan or a light orange. Their faces are tan in color and consist of two dark brown eyes, two cheek blushes, and no mouth or nose (though Waddle Dees are known to speak and eat despite lacking mouths). While most Waddle Dees are orange or red, there also are [[Color|green, yellow, blue]], or [[Gold Waddle Dee|golden]] Waddle Dees to be found. | '''Waddle Dees''' are a species of very peaceful creatures that are a common sight in [[Dream Land]], in the wider [[Popstar]] region, and on [[Planet|many other planets]].

Overall, Waddle Dees are depicted as peaceful denizens of Dream Land that seldom fight actively. Instead, they usually just waddle around in stages and leap in the air occasionally, neither paying attention to, nor actively attacking Kirby. While they are generally not much of a threat, they usually [[damage]] Kirby if they run into him or if he touches them. Many, but not all Waddle Dees seem to have affiliated themselves with [[King Dedede]], and those that have usually show a great amount of respect and loyalty towards their leader, even if they sometimes acknowledge his character flaws. King Dedede often employs them as servants, soldiers, and guards, giving the latter of these [[Spear Waddle Dee|spears to use to varying degrees of effectiveness]]. Among the most loyal of these is [[Bandana Waddle Dee]], named after his blue bandana, who also happens to be friends with Kirby. | Overall, Waddle Dees are depicted as peaceful denizens of Dream Land that seldom fight actively.

Waddle Dee re-appears in [[Patch Land]], however according to an in-game interlude, the Waddle Dees made of yarn are not actually Waddle Dees (servants of King Dedede), but rather creations of [[Yin-Yarn]]. Unlike Waddle Dees from other games, running into Yarn Waddle Dees will not hurt Kirby. However, sometimes Waddle Dees do try to attack Kirby through the use of arrows ('''Bow Waddle Dee''') and spears ('''Spear Waddle Dee'''). In the [[Off-Roader]] segments of the game, Waddle Dees appear riding dune buggies (in this appearance they are called '''[[Truck Monster]]''') in a race between them and Kirby.

Waddle Dees also appear in numerous levels as hapless foes and bystanders, can appear asleep, or carry Parasols ('''Parasol Waddle Dee''') and Balloons ('''Balloon Waddle Dee'''). Waddle Dees also make a small appearance in the [[Squashini]] boss fight as part of an audience. In addition to this, a single Waddle Dee is seen burning in the [[Hot Wings]] fight, and King Dedede's Waddle Dees can be seen in some cutscenes.

There are three Dress-Up Masks based on Waddle Dees, including Park-Staff Waddle Dee and Bandana Waddle Dee, with the regular Waddle Dee mask given upon first visit to Merry Magoland, and the last two for completing [[Stamp Rally]] cards #21 and #33, respectively. | There are three Dress-Up Masks based on Waddle Dees, including Park-Staff Waddle Dee and Bandana Waddle Dee, with the regular Waddle Dee mask given upon first visit to Merry Magoland, and the last two for completing [[Stamp Rally]] cards #21 and #33, respectively. | ||

In ''[[Kirby and the Forgotten Land]]'', many Waddle Dees are taken hostage by the [[Beast Pack]], and can be found trapped in cages. In this way they function as [[item#Collectibles|collectibles]]. Kirby's primary objective is to free them. A gold cage containing three Waddle Dees marks the endpoint of each regular stage, while many other silver cages containing single Waddle Dees can be found along the way, with goals in each level rewarding more Waddle Dees. As Waddle Dees are rescued by Kirby, they populate the [[Waddle Dee Town]], and the more rescued, the bigger and more complex the town becomes.
