'''Coner''' is an [[enemy]] in the [[Kirby (series)|''Kirby'' series]] with the form of a [[wikipedia:Hermit crab|hermit crab]]. It made its first appearance in ''[[Kirby's Dream Land]]'' and has since appeared in a small selection of subsequent games in the series.

Coner's appearance is that of a hermit crab - it possesses a conical spiral shell with eyes, legs and pincers emerging from the base. It has exceptionally large eyes that peer out from below the shell, giving Coner a shy appearance. The original col{{o}}ring of Coner is a green shell and yellow skin; however, in ''[[Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land]]'', alternate col{{o}}ring gives it pink and yellow tone variations as well.

Coners have two interesting qualities—they are among the few enemies that can survive both on land and in water, and they are also impossible for Kirby to inhale when inside their shell.

Its name comes from "cone" (referring to its shell) or likely "cone shell".

=== ''Kirby's Dream Land'' ===
[[File:KDL Coner sprite.png]] Coner makes its first appearance in the very first ''Kirby'' game, ''[[Kirby's Dream Land]]''. It appears exclusively in [[Float Islands]] and is worth 600 points when defeated. Unlike many other enemies, it is not replaced by anything else in the [[Extra Game]].

=== ''Kirby's Adventure / Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land'' ===
[[File:KA Orange Ocean Stage 4 screenshot 01.png|thumb|200px|Kirby passing underneath some Coners in ''Kirby's Adventure''.]]
[[File:KA Coner sprite.png]] [[File:KNiDL Coner sprite.png]] Coner appears again in ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]'' and [[Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land|its remake]], unchanged from its previous appearance. The introduction of [[Copy Ability|copy abilities]] makes it much less of an issue to defeat, however.

=== ''Kirby's Block Ball'' ===
[[File:KBBa Coner sprite.png]] Coner appears as an enemy in ''[[Kirby's Block Ball]]'', sometimes patrolling the block formations. Much like in ''Kirby's Dream Land'', it is worth 600 points when defeated.

===''Kirby's Star Stacker'' (Game Boy)===
In ''[[Kirby's Star Stacker (Game Boy)|Kirby's Star Stacker]]'' on the [[Game Boy]], Coner can be found in one of the illustrations. Specifically, it can be found on the beach with [[Waddle Dee]] in his "lose" screen in VS mode. Coner is the only character in the game who does not return in the [[Kirby's Star Stacker (Super Famicom)|SNES version]].

=== ''Kirby Star Allies'' ===
[[File:KSA Extra Planet Alpha 11.jpg|thumb|250px|Kirby and friends swimming toward a Coner in ''Kirby Star Allies''.]]
After a very long absence, Coner reappears in ''[[Kirby Star Allies]]'' as a standard enemy, making its first appearance in 3D. Its behavior is largely unchanged from its older appearances.

== Trivia ==
*According to [[Masahiro Sakurai]], Coner might have been the first enemy he drew for ''Kirby's Dream Land''.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZUY2AtBD6Sk&t=496 "Secrets of Enemy Movement" section of the video "Development Secrets of the Original Kirby <nowiki>[Grab Bag]</nowiki>" on Masahiro Sakurai's YouTube channel]</ref>
