'''Gordo''' is a common [[enemy]] in the [[Kirby (series)|''Kirby'' series]], having appeared in every game in the main series as well as many spin-offs; totaling 34 appearances so far. He typically takes the appearance of a floating blue or black ball with large eyes and spikes around his perimeter. He is completely immune to any attack in almost all cases and [[damage]]s characters who make contact with him. As such, he effectively functions as an obstacle that the player must avoid. He tends to generally block [[Kirby]]'s path by sitting in corridors, bouncing back and forth between two solid objects vertically or horizontally, circling around blocks, or bouncing along the ground affected by gravity. Additionally, Gordos can be produced by several [[boss]]es as attacks, usually by [[Whispy Woods]] and his relatives; Gordos produced in this way typically do not last for long, and will bounce off-screen after a short while.

While Gordo typically cannot be destroyed, he can sometimes be dealt with through other means. If one is bouncing around a hallway, destroying a specific [[block]] he bounces against will cause him to leave, or in some cases, leaving one or more will keep him trapped in a small unreachable space, allowing Kirby to move around safely. Many of Kirby's attacks leave him temporarily invincible (like those gained with [[Burning]] or [[Wheel]]), allowing him to dash through Gordos without taking damage, though the Gordos themselves remain unharmed.
