'''Amprey''' is an invincible eel-like creature that appears in ''[[Kirby's Epic Yarn]]'' and [[Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn|its remake]]. It is a relatively large [[enemy]] with a purple body, yellow button eyes and green fins. Amprey's body also flashes bright green and purple due to its electricity. Attached to an Amprey's tail is a line of three large [[bead]]s which [[Kirby]] or [[Prince Fluff]] can collect without taking damage. However, if they collide with the rest of the Amprey, they will lose some of their beads. Encountered exclusively in [[Deep-Dive Deep]] in [[Water Land]], this long purple fish swims circles around set features of the landscape.

Amprey's name is a play on "[[wikipedia: Ampere|ampere]]" (a measure of electric current) and "[[wikipedia: Lamprey|lamprey]]" (a form of jawless fish that resembles an eel).
Amprey gets its name from the words "ampere" and "lamprey" fused together in a portmanteau. The ampere is a measure of electric current, and a lamprey is a form of jawless fish that resembles an eel.
