Dedede's Cake Royale: Difference between revisions

{{spoilers}}

When {{realMe}} boots up the game for the first time, it begins with the introduction cut-scene and first moments of the story mode, before leading into the main menu.

The story begins, as many do, with Kirby sleeping under a tree in a grassy field. A loose piece of paper comes tumbling down from the sky, and lands on Kirby's face, stirring him. He has a look at the paper, and becomes quite excited, readying his sword and running off. At this point, {{realMe}} sees what was on the paper, revealing itself to be a promotional flyer for a tournament, where the reward is a gigantic cake. As Kirby makes his way toward the sight of the tournament, he runs into [[Bandana Waddle Dee]], who has collapsed on the ground. Bandana Dee had also been traveling to the arena for the cake, but had 'walked all night', and was exhausted. Kirby helps Bandana Dee by carrying him through the forest, until they run into a dead end, where they both get ambushed by [[Bronto Burt]]s. After these pests, a blue clone of Kirby appears from the bush, and attacks without warning. After defeating this mysterious foe, a [[Warp Star]] appears from the sky to carry Kirby and Bandana Dee the rest of the way to the arena. Once they arrive at the entrance, Bandana Dee regains his energy, and they both walk to the gate, guarded by a Soldier Waddle Dee. The guard challenges Kirby to a game of [[Apple Scramble]] in order to qualify for entrance. With this first trial cleared, Kirby and Bandana Dee are permitted entry to the arena proper, and a cut-scene is displayed to {{realMe}} showing the sorts of games that lay ahead. This marks the end of the intro.

The story proper begins as Kirby and Waddle Dee arrive in the arena, where King Dedede shows them his newest contraption - the [[Kirby Printer]]. It is capable of creating copies of [[Kirby]], pre-equipped with a [[Copy Ability]], using only crank power. Dedede's plan is thus to pit Kirby against these clones in various games, confident that they will beat each-other senseless over the cake. Meanwhile, [[Meta Knight]] looks on from atop a tower, content to observe for the moment. As Kirby advances through the leagues, King Dedede becomes increasingly frustrated, as he had intended for Kirby to lose the games and look a fool. He uses the Kirby Printer to print Kirbys with ever more elaborate abilities in an attempt to stop his pink rival from winning more games. As Kirby and Bandana Dee enter the Gold League, Meta Knight reveals himself, making it known that he is also competing in the games, and intends to challenge Kirby, noting that the clones are not up to snuff. After Kirby defeats Meta Knight in the Platinum League Qualifiers, King Dedede loses the rest of his patience, and storms out of the throne room, intent on dealing with Kirby himself.

At the Championship Match, Dedede reveals himself as Kirby's last opponent. Kirby and Bandana Dee face off against him in four rounds, but when he's beaten he stubbornly refuses to admit defeat. He forces Kirby to fight him and two of his guards alone, in a 1v3 match. Kirby manages to beat him again, prompting Dedede to retreat into his throne room, as Kirby makes chase. There, he rides an elevator up to a large chamber, where King Dedede has prepared a giant robot, the [[Dededestroyer Z]], complete with the [[Kirby Printer]] as its base. Kirby has to battle this robot, along with the Kirbys it produces, though he gains some aid from Bandana Dee, who tosses him a cannon to fire at the robot with. With the Dededestroyer Z reduced to scrap, King Dedede is finally defeated, and the Kirby Printer is destroyed, causing all the Kirby clones it produced to vanish. A crowd gathers to cheer the heroes as the cake is brought in for them to enjoy.
