Doc is a member of the Squeaks serving under Daroach, who debuted in Kirby: Squeak Squad. He is easily the smallest of the named Squeak members, but is distinguished by his mad-scientist-style glasses, his green mustache, and his penchant for inventing and operating robots and other machines. Notable inventions of Doc include his flying saucer, Mecha-Kracko, Yadgaine, and Daroach's Airship. In Kirby: Squeak Squad, Doc is fought on several occasions as a Mid-Boss and twice as a boss using these various machines. Without a machine to pilot, he is helpless.
Physical Appearance
Doc is easily the smallest of the named Squeaks, comparable to a Squeaker in size, but bears a huge green mustache and stereotypical mad scientist goggles, and is often seen operating a flying saucer.
Personality
In Kirby Mass Attack, Daroach reveals that Doc is "a genius when it comes to machines" but is "getting on in years". While Doc himself never speaks, Daroach claims that he invented all of the Squeaks' gadgets, including the airship which Daroach uses in said game.
Game appearances
Kirby: Squeak Squad
As a Mid-Boss
Doc appears alongside Spinni and Storo as a major enemy which Kirby will need to contend with in some stages once picking up a large Treasure Chest. He pursues Kirby in his flying saucer and will attempt to fire beams and drop bombs (which yield the Bomb Copy Ability) at him, causing Kirby to drop a chest if hit. Doc can then attempt to steal the chest using a claw from his saucer. If Doc is hit, he may drop a laser gun, which Kirby can swallow for the Laser ability.
If great damage is sustained, Doc will be ejected from his saucer, and left stunned for a while before hopping back into another one. If his saucer lands on the ground when this happens, Kirby can swallow it for the UFO ability.
Doc has 70 HP as a Mid-Boss, the lowest among himself, Spinni and Storo. Kirby's Star Bullet deals 40 damage per shot so Doc can be easily defeated by 2 Star Bullets.
Other roles
- Main article: Mecha-Kracko
- Main article: Yadgaine
In the case of two different mechanical bosses, Doc is shown to be the pilot, and is ejected from both when they are defeated. The bosses are:
- Mecha-Kracko in Cushy Cloud;
- Yadgaine in Jam Jungle.
In the former case, Doc is not revealed as the pilot until the first phase of the fight is over.
Kirby Mass Attack
Doc appears in Daroach's Airship after Dedede Resort is cleared. While he can't be interacted with, Daroach mentions him in some dialogue.
Kirby: Triple Deluxe
Doc appears as a keychain in Kirby: Triple Deluxe, using his sprite from Kirby: Squeak Squad
Kirby: Planet Robobot
In Kirby: Planet Robobot, Doc appears as a sticker for the Robobot Armor using his artwork from Kirby: Squeak Squad.
Kirby Star Allies
- Main article: Daroach#Kirby Star Allies
In Kirby Star Allies, Doc appears as part of Daroach the Dream Friend's moveset. When called upon, he orbits Daroach three times in his saucer while emitting a constant electric field. This field is capable of dealing electrical damage, activating Wires, and granting the Zap effect to allies.
