Gordo is a regular enemy in the Kirby series and is notorious for being impervious (usually) to attack. Despite what the Gordo trophy in Super Smash Bros. Brawl says, they have indeed been known to move, either back and forth along a set line, bouncing on the ground, or orbiting a platform.

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl

Gordos appear in Super Smash Bros. Brawl as a trophy and a sticker, and they are also used as projectiles occasionally thrown in King Dedede's Side Special Move, Waddle Dee Toss, and his Final Smash, Waddle Dee Army. The Waddle Dee/Waddle Doo/Gordo appears when thrown at a ratio of 35:10:4 (in other words, there is an 8.2% chance of a Gordo appearing). They have powerful knockback (the greatest of the three) that propels opponents upward. Unlike King Dedede's other minions, a thrown Gordo can be reflected back at the user. A thrown Gordo will bounce once, then disappear the next time it touches the ground.

Gordo Trophy

The Gordo trophy in Super Smash Bros. Brawl

Trophy Description

A creature that sits in one place and doesn't even try to move. They won't even budge if Kirby tries to inhale them - they're the definitive obstacle. In addition, they're covered in spikes so they damage whoever touches them. They're found stopped in groups, blocking narrow passageways, etc. Nothing's harder to get by than an encampament of Gordos.

  • Kirby's Dream Land
  • Kirby: Squeak Squad

Trivia

  • If a Gordo hits an opponent's shield at the proper angle, it will continuously travel through the air in a straight path without landing or disappearing until it travels off of the screen.
  • The Subspace Army enemy Jyk is possibly based on a Gordo.
  • Gordos also appear as enemies in Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins for the Game Boy. It is their only appearance outside of a Kirby or Smash game.
  • The name "Gordo" comes from the Spanish and Portuguese word for "fat".
  • Gordo made his first appearance in the game Kirby's Dream Land, in which Gordo appeared in every level other than Green Greens.
