“ | This toasty toad is so hot, he uses molten lava for his bathwater! His favorite hobbies are causing volcanic eruptions and hopping all over the place! | ” | — Triple Deluxe Boss description |

Pyribbit is a boss from Kirby: Triple Deluxe. He resembles a giant horned toad, though he bears a crown and has no arms. He can also swim and survive in lava and can breathe fire, along with the ability to cause tremors and summon lava waves. Pyribbit is the boss of Triple Deluxe's fifth Level, Endless Explosions, and it is also battled in The Arena and in Stage 4 of Royal Road.
Battle
The following lists all of Pyribbit's attacks in Story Mode and The Arena in Kirby: Triple Deluxe. Attacks in italics are used in the second phase of the fight only.

Pyribbit spends a good deal of time off the stage, which can make him difficult to hit. As such, his fight tends to last longer than the prior bosses' fights. In the second phase, Pyribbit summons four stone platforms out of the lava that float in the air, and a volcano in the background. These become fixtures for Pyribbit to perform more attacks from.
Pyribbit DX
Upon defeat, Pyribbit gets knocked into the background lava pit, where he then surfaces and starts roaring. The pillars he summoned during phase 2 of the fight then inexplicably fly in toward the crying toad and crash into him, burying him beneath the surface of the lava and destroying him. The Grand Sun Stone emerges from above for Kirby to collect.
Team Kirby Clash
Pyribbit appears as the fourth boss of this Sub-Game. It fights in almost exactly the same manner as it did in Triple Deluxe, but its Vitality is much greater, to serve as a challenge for four Kirby warriors.
Trivia
- In terms of the way he looks, Pyribbit closely resembles Fatty Puffer from Kirby's Return to Dream Land. However, the way he roars and fights is much more similar to Goriath from the same game.
- Unlike the other bosses that Taranza conjures and/or empowers, the only thing Taranza does to aggravate Pyribbit is to throw a stone in his face. Additionally, during Dededetour!, King Dedede simply trips and his hammer flies into Pyribbit DX's face, which initiates the battle.
- The name 'Pyribbit' is a portmanteau of the words 'pyro' (a Greek prefix for fire) and 'ribbit' (an onomatopoeia for the sound many frogs and toads make when croaking). This reflects the fact that the boss is a fire-breathing toad.
