'''Inhale''' is [[King Dedede]]'s [[neutral special]] move. The attack is similar to [[Kirby]]'s Inhale in appearance, but with slightly increased range and no copying ability. By pressing the special move button, Dedede will begin to inhale the air in front of him, creating a vortex. He will continue to inhale as long as the button is held down. If a character comes near him, they will automatically be sucked inside of him and will be trapped in his stomach. When swallowed, Dedede's stomach enlarges to hold the victim, which makes him extremely slow. Dedede simply spits the character back out when the attack button is pressed, or they break free themselves. King Dedede also has 25 frames of [[invincibility]] after he Inhales someone. | '''Inhale''' is [[King Dedede]]'s [[neutral special]] move.

Inhale is King Dedede's neutral special move. The attack is similar to Kirby's Inhale in appearance, but with slightly increased range and no copying ability. By pressing the special move button, Dedede will begin to inhale the air in front of him, creating a vortex. He will continue to inhale as long as the button is held down. If a character comes near him, they will automatically be sucked inside of him and will be trapped in his stomach. When swallowed, Dedede's stomach enlarges to hold the victim, which makes him extremely slow. Dedede simply spits the character back out when the attack button is pressed, or they break free themselves. King Dedede also has 25 frames of invincibility after he Inhales someone.
Other similarities to Kirby's Inhale include the ability to eat items, though unlike Kirby he cannot recover damage from doing so. He can also perform a form of sacrificial KO, sometimes known as "Dededecide", "Suck and Cuck", or "Regicide." The Dededecide is more effective than the Kirbycide is in Brawl, as King Dedede is able to fast-fall while using the move, unlike Kirby. King Dedede also has a considerably higher falling speed than Kirby, even without fast-falling.
To compensate for not being able to copy abilities, Dedede's Inhale does more damage than Kirby's Inhale and he can inhale projectiles. This attack does 10% when the opponent is exhaled; if the character-projectile hits someone, it does 9% to 20% to that person depending on the inhaled opponent; the heavier the inhaled opponent is, the higher the amount of damage it does. The projectile also deals more vertical knockback to opponents compared to when Kirby exhales the opponents.
Customization
Special Move customization was added in Super Smash Bros. 4. These are the variations:
| 1. Inhale | 2. Dedede Storm | 3. Taste Test |
|---|---|---|
 |
 |
 |
| "Inhale opponents and spit them out as stars." | "A cyclone from King Dedede's mouth that pulls foes in, hits repeatedly, and launches upward." | "Inhale opponents quickly, and spit them out as stars immediately." |
- Inhale: Default.
- Dedede Storm: A cyclone from King Dedede's mouth that pulls foes in, hits repeatedly, and launches upward. However, he doesn't have the ability to suck up anyone.
- Taste Test: Inhale opponents faster and instantly spit them out as stars. This means that Dedede can't move or turn around after inhaling enemies.
Collateral damage
Just like Kirby's Inhale, the damage dealt by a spit character is loosely based on their weight. Both characters' Inhales deal the same damage in this respect.

Glitches
Dedede's Inhale (and Kirby's copied Inhale) has at least two glitches. When used on a mine from Snake's down smash, the explosion will go off continuously until it hits someone, Snake plants another mine, or Dedede stops Inhaling. When used on Ike in the middle of a Quick Draw, Ike will hit Dedede but continue past, often to his death. However, this is probably due to the vacuum effect created by the Inhale. In Super Smash Bros. for 3DS, if King Dedede inhales another King Dedede, his feet will detach from his body.

Origin
In nearly every Kirby game with King Dedede in it, King Dedede has shown the ability to Inhale, like Kirby. Unlike Kirby's Inhale, King Dedede cannot absorb an ability. The attack has remained mostly the same throughout the Kirby series, with the exception of Kirby's Dream Land 2, where King Dedede is able to inhale large amounts of air and spit it back at Kirby as a very powerful projectile.
