2) Wheelie
Appeared in: Kirby Super Star
After all that praise I heaped upon the other helpers, one is probably wondering why Wheelie is this high. The Wheel ability is useful but can be hard to control. However, having Wheelie as a helper is far, FAR better for one reason and one reason only: you can ride him. Wheelie is a valuable asset in many levels because of the ability to hop onto him and drive over all your enemies. While not useful in the Meta Knight’s Revenge portion of Kirby Super Star (with the exception of the mandatory “escape the Halberd before it explodes” section) or any underwater portions, everywhere else it seems as if Wheelie is the best you can get. I know he’s definitely one of my favorites to use.
Great list! Kirby’s oddball pals have always been a favorite of mine. It always feels wrong to annihilate them on a regular basis, lol.
Excellent choices! Rick was my favorite too. Was bummed when Kirby’s dreamland 3 came out because I had already sold my SNES (what a mistake! Still haven’t gotten my new SNES collection up to what I used to have) to get n64 games. Saw rick was back and was crushed. Took me years to be able to play it
