They can only be defeated with two well-placed [[Bomb]]s, two hits from the [[Magic Rod]], or four hits from the [[Boomerang]]. Unusually, Anti-Kirbies will cause more damage simply by coming into contact with one than by being swallowed.

Anti-Kirbys,(LADX)[1] also known as Kirbys,(SSB | SSBM | SSBB | SSBfN3DS | SSBfWU | SSBU)[1][name references needed] are recurring characters and Enemies in The Legend of Zelda series. Anti-Kirbys go unnamed in Link's Awakening for Nintendo Switch. They resemble, and are named after, the titular character of the Kirby series.[1]

Characteristics

Link's Awakening

Anti-Kirbies are hostile Enemies that are encountered on the first floor of Eagle's Tower. They are described as "Kirby's evil twins" in the Nintendo Player's guide of the game.[2] Anti-Kirbies attack by periodically attempting to inhale Link into their gaping mouths. If they manage to swallow Link, they will briefly hold him for a moment before spitting him back out and causing damage. While they do not inflict much damage, they are among the most resilient Enemies in the game, as few Items are effective against them and the Sword will merely bounce off of them. They can only be defeated with two well-placed Bombs, two hits from the Magic Rod, or four hits from the Boomerang. Unusually, Anti-Kirbies will cause more damage simply by coming into contact with one than by being swallowed.
