Waddle Dee
- For the trophy, see Waddle Dee (trophy).
Waddle Dees are the projectile used in King Dedede's Smash B attack (Waddle Dee Toss), and in his Final Smash: Waddle Dee Army. After being thrown, they "waddle" across the stage, and will do one of three things while they walk: trip in place, stumble forward, or jump upwards. When a Waddle Dee jumps, any opponent in its jumping path will recieve a small amount of damage and knockback (similar to when a thrown Waddle Dee hits an opponent). During King Dedede's Final Smash, the Waddle Dee Army, the Waddle Dees will fall then quickly run across the stage, knocking any opponent in their path in the direction that they were running. During the Subspace Emissary the Waddle Dees are used to capture Luigi. Four Waddle Dees carry King Dedede on a palanquin during his entrance.
As a trophy
Trophy #275: Many delicate creatures like this one inhabit Dream Land. They generally live carefree lives and have never considered themselves to be followers of King Dedede. Waddle Dees are innocent and generally harmless to man and beast. While they have virtually no offensive or defensive power, they'll sometimes try to wield a parasol
