Gordos are a common enemy in the Kirby series, having appeared in every such game. They take the appearance of floating black balls with large eyes a spikes around their perimeter.
Gordos are completely impervious to any attacks thrown at them; at best the attack will simply bounce off, at worst the attacker will be damaged in return. As such they are best avoided, not confronted. However this is often easier said than done; Gordos tend to sit in corridors, bounce back and forth along vertical shafts, circle around blocks, and generally block Kirby's path. Good timing is required to pass a moving Gordo; good positioning is needed to pass a stationary one if there are other factors such as wind.
While Gordos cannot be destroyed, they can sometimes be dealt with. If a Gordo is bouncing around a hallway, destroying the block it bounces against will cause it to leave. Many of Kirby's attacks leave him temporarily invincible, allowing him to dash through a row of Gordos. If worst comes to worst, guarding against a Gordo will not usually cause any chip damage.
Gordos can act as a nasty surprise when mixed into the pool of available minions for bosses to produce. While Kirby can often attack enemies hurled at him during a boss fight, Gordos can only be avoided, so attention must be paid if they can be seen in the mix. This is even true for King Dedede's side special move and Final Smash in Super Smash Bros. Brawl; while he tends to throw Waddle Dees and Waddle Doos, every now and then he tosses a Gordo, which cannot be interrupted and will KO even heavy characters with ease should it connect.
Appearance
Trophy from Super Smash Bros. Brawl.
Gordo has the appearance of a circle with many spikes around it. They are black and, in most games, have white spikes around them. They have two large, white, unblinking eyes. The spikes in the corners of Gordo's body grow bigger and smaller as it moves.
