April Fools/2024/Arena Waddle Dee
Arena Waddle Dee, moments before being hit in the face by Hammer Kirby.
This article is about the Waddle Dee that appears in The Arena. For the regular ol' Waddle Dee, see this page.
“
No telling if it's true, but according to the ancient scrolls, Arena Waddle Dee may reappear in other games depending on whether HAL Laboratory gives him more lore.. It seems this being of waddle will wander The Arena until one day he is brought back in a new game. When he returns, hopefully it will be…official.
Arena Waddle Dee's sprite in Kirby Super Star, which is totally different from a regular Waddle Dee.
Arena Waddle Dee does not look like your typical Waddle Dee. Well, actually, he does, but that doesn't mean he's not special.[2] Just like most other Waddle Dees, he has a light orange skin with black eyes, and weird stubs instead of actual limbs. In Kirby & The Amazing Mirror, Arena Waddle Dee gained a minor redesign, making him look identical to every other Waddle Dee in that game. Actually, the redesign happened in Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land, but he didn't officially appear in that game. Arena Waddle Dee once again got redesigned in Kirby Super Star Ultra, obtaining a very fabulous blue bandana, which he also wears in Revenge of the King. Just ignore the fact that this main game takes place after Spring Breeze, which is a retelling of Kirby's Dream Land, meaning that he somehow lost the bandana before the events of every other game. His lore is already confusing enough. Arena Waddle Dee's only movement consists of standing, walking, and jumping. This may not seem very impressive, but you will definitely be impressed with what else he can do in his unofficial appearances, unless you're already bored and want to read another page instead.
Personality
Arena Waddle Dee doesn't have much personality, but since he tries to fight Kirby in The Arena, it's safe to assume that he's a very courageous Waddle Dee. This is further proven upon in Kirby Super Star Ultra, as well as all of his other unofficial future appearances, but I don't want to get ahead of myself. I don't want to spoil the rest of this supercalifragilistic page. Anyhow, Arena Waddle Dee can also be described as very silly, foolish, or maybe even a nincompoop. This is mainly due to the fact that he is used as a joke in every official appearance, being the weakest enemy in every Boss Endurance mode he appears in. But we will always love him no matter what, and one day, he might clobbah dat dere Kirbeh.
Moveset
Due to being a boss in so many Kirby games, Arena Waddle Dee has a large number of signature attacks which he uses in most of his fights. Wait, what do you mean I copied that sentence from another page? At least I didn't copy the following table, which lists all of Arena Waddle Dee's most notable attacks in the order they first appeared in:
Arena Waddle Dee walks forward (left, towards Kirby's start point). Once he reaches the end of the screen, he starts walking the other way (right, towards not Kirby's start point).
He walks slightly faster than a regular Waddle Dee. I think. I'm not so sure, actually.
Arena Waddle Dee shoots out four boomerangs, which don't grant the Cutter ability, since that's not how Copy Abilities work in this game. This attack is an overused reference to the boss fight with Marx in Kirby Super Star.
Added in version 3.0.0
Game appearances
Arena Waddle Dee's appearances, with appearances in bold being the only ones that matter
Since this game does not include characters, it is impossible for Arena Waddle Dee to make an appearance. Despite this, the game is still in the list of his appearances, since including every game is funny.
Kirby can use the Ghost ability to control a Waddle Dee. This may hint at the fact that Waddle Dees have souls, possibly being a reference to [[a certain soul boss.
Since this is yet another retelling of Kirby's Dream Land, Arena Waddle Dee might be hidden among the regular enemy Waddle Dees. But that's just a theory. A Kirby theory.
