'''Gordo''' ({{ja|ゴルドー|Gorudō}}, ''Gordo'') is a regular enemy in the {{uv|Kirby}} series.

 

The [[Waddle Dee]]/[[Waddle Doo]]/Gordo appears when thrown at a ratio of 35:10:4, which means there is an 8.2% chance of a Gordo appearing. They have very powerful vertical [[knockback]], by far the greatest of the three, and they are capable of reliably KOing any character under 100%, even under 75% if not stale from repeated Waddle Dee Tosses. 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. The Gordo is also unique as it behaves like an aerial attack in terms of [[priority]]: as such, a Gordo can collide with opposing hitboxes but cannot be canceled out. If it does come into contact with a hitbox that's within or above the priority range of the Gordo, the Gordo is not canceled out and it will continue along its natural trajectory while going through the opposing character without harming them. The Gordo is the only projectile in the ''{{b|Super Smash Bros.|series}}'' series to have this characteristic. Gordos that appear in King Dedede's Final Smash go at very high speeds, similar to the Waddle Dees/Doos, but are still less common, only appearing 1/4 of the time.

|desc=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 encampment of Gordos.

Instead, try pushing your enemies onto them! Watch for two different kinds: one moves along a set path, and the other stubbornly sits in place.

==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''==

Gordos appear once more in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'' in {{SSBU|King Dedede}}'s moveset, still thrown by his [[Gordo Throw]]. They can now also be [[Inhale (King Dedede)|inhaled]] by characters like {{SSBU|Kirby}} and Dedede himself.

 

Gordo also appears as an Advanced-class [[primary spirit]].

 

Gordo's Spirit Battle uses an army of [[Clear]] {{SSBU|King Dedede}} puppet fighters and is fought on the [[Green Greens]] stage. During the battle, the invisible King Dedede fighters favor their side special, Gordo Throw, so that Gordos seem to appear from out of nowhere to attack.
