3) Knuckle Joe
Appeared in: Kirby Super Star
Now this is a helper that is extremely useful no matter what type of attack you decide to go with. Using the Fighter Ability, if you decide to attack with something long range like Yo-Yo or Cutter, Knuckle Joe is able to help fight close range and keep the other enemies from creeping closer to you. If you choose something closer range, Knuckle Joe’s Fighter ability can cover ground with his dash attacks. He’s so useful that he has even found his way into the Super Smash Bros. games as an Assist Trophy.
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
