Ringle is an enemy that debuted in Kirby: Triple Deluxe. It resembles a small black creature with red feet, blue eyes, and a large golden bell on its head. It is the only enemy in the Kirby series that yields the Bell Copy Ability when inhaled by Kirby.
It simply walks around on the ground, but it is also capable of hovering in the air. If Kirby or King Dedede get close to it, it tolls its bell, and the sound waves that come off of it can harm them if they get too close. Ringle only has a mild amount of HP.
