'''ChuChu''' (also spelled as '''Chuchu''') is one of [[Kirby]]'s [[Animal Friend]]s, and a frequently reoccurring character in the [[Kirby (series)|''Kirby'' series]], though most of her appearances are only as cameos. ChuChu is a pink octopus-like creature,<ref>{{cite book|quote=The most unique of Kirby's new friends, ChuChu is based on a certain eight-legged sea creature!|book=[[Kirby's Dream Collection|''Kirby's Dream Collection'']] booklet|publisher=Nintendo|page=23}}</ref> most closely resembling a [[wikipedia:Opisthoteuthis depressa|Japanese flapjack octopus]], who wears a red bow on her head. Unlike most other Animal Friends, who can carry Kirby or Gooey around in some manner, ChuChu rides on the head of her partner. Kirby appears to have a content or lovestruck expression when ChuChu is on his head, and several of their interactions imply that they may have a romantic interest in each other.

ChuChu debuts in ''[[Kirby's Dream Land 3]]'' as one of Kirby's six [[Animal Friend]]s, first appearing in the second stage of [[Grass Land (Kirby's Dream Land 3)|Grass Land]]. When paired with Kirby, ChuChu is able to use her sticky, extendable "tentacles" to grab enemies in front of her and put them into Kirby's mouth, as well as sticking to and moving along ceilings. Furthermore, if the player presses the B button while the two are falling, she can perform a weak aerial jump, making it possible to slow down their fall if the button is pressed repeatedly. Despite being an octopus, ChuChu has no increased swimming skills when underwater.
