Pierce[Japanese title] is a flying enemy that debuted in Kirby's Return to Dream Land. It grants the Spear ability when swallowed.

Pierce resembles a large bumblebee with a spear in hand and a very big head and purple earmuffs. When spotting Kirby or his friends, it will charge slowly toward them and attempt to strike them with its spear. It is generally not tough to deal with.
