King Dedede

King Dedede (デデデ大王, Dedede Daiō) is the first antagonist and arch-enemy of Kirby in the Kirby series. King Dedede is a large blue penguin, dressed in red royal finery, with his personal emblem embossed on the back of his robe. He also wears yellow gloves and usually wields a large hammer as an offensive weapon. He has many of the same abilities as Kirby himself does, such as being able to inhale objects and spit them back out with tremendous force and also has the ability to suck in air and fly.

Super Smash Bros.
King Dedede was not a playable character in Super Smash Bros. due to time constraints, although he can be occasionally seen in the background of the Dream Land stage.

Super Smash Bros. Melee
King Dedede is once again not a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Melee, although he did appear as a trophy.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl
King Dedede was announced to be in Super Smash Bros. Brawl on October 25, 2007, on Smash Bros. DOJO!!. He is a "member of the heavyweight class alongside Bowser and Donkey Kong." His special moves include Waddle Dee Toss, which allows him to throw a Waddle Dee at his opponents (and sometimes a Waddle Doo or a Gordo as well); the Super Dedede Jump, his recovery move; and the Jet Hammer, which powers up his hammer and allows him to move a bit before unleashing it on his opponents.
