'''King Dedede''' is a selectable character in the [[Air Ride]] mode of ''[[Kirby Air Ride]]''. Despite not being a "machine," King Dedede nonetheless appears on the screen while one selects a machine for [[Kirby]] to ride, and replaces Kirby if selected. He shares this trait with the sole other unlockable character in the game, [[Meta Knight | '''King Dedede''' is a selectable character in the [[Air Ride]] mode of ''[[Kirby Air Ride]]''. Despite not being a "machine," King Dedede nonetheless appears on the screen while one selects a machine for [[Kirby]] to ride, and replaces Kirby if selected. He shares this trait with the sole other unlockable character in the game, [[Meta Knight/Kirby Air Ride|Meta Knight]]. Unlike Meta Knight, however, he also brings in his own unique machine to use. | ||
Aside from appearing as a playable character, a larger and more powerful version of him appears as an antagonist in [[Vs. King Dedede]], a [[Stadium]] of [[City Trial]]. | Aside from appearing as a playable character, a larger and more powerful version of him appears as an antagonist in [[Vs.

The Wheelie Bike Dedede Custom acts in a very similar way to the standard [[Wheelie Bike]] ridden by Kirby. As such, the vehicle's most standout features are shared with all other bikes--Wheelie Bike, [[Rex Wheelie]], and [[Wheelie Scooter]]. Since it relies on a wheel to propel itself, it does not float above the ground as stars do. This renders it more susceptible to ground hazards such as the magma in [[Magma Flows]] or the snow in [[Frozen Hillside]], decelerating and messing with its handling more than it would stars. However, it also gains the aid of [[Dash Panel]]s and activates switches without the need to touch the ground with a charge. As with all bikes, it does not glide in the typical sense, but instead jumps. That is, it gains a sudden increase of speed when going airborne, but cannot steer or alter its trajectory to the point almost all stars can. | The Wheelie Bike Dedede Custom acts in a very similar way to the standard [[Wheelie Bike]] ridden by Kirby.

King Dedede, like the Wheelie Bike, has mostly average and balanced statistics. However, his HP, weight, offense, and top speed are all slightly higher than the Wheelie Bike, while his acceleration, turning, and jumping capability are all slightly lower than the Wheelie Bike. | King Dedede, like the Wheelie Bike, has mostly average and balanced statistics.

His notable characteristic as a racer is the inability to [[inhale]] or copy enemies, unlike Kirby. Despite this, he wields a [[hammer]] throughout all of races, which he seems to pull out of nowhere whenever it is used.

Despite this, he wields a [[hammer]] throughout all of races, which he seems to pull out of nowhere whenever it is used. The weapon functions in a similar way to Kirby's [[Sword#Kirby Air Ride|Sword ability]], or [[Meta Knight/Kirby Air Ride|Meta Knight]]'s [[Galaxia]], in that it automatically activates whenever a target draws close enough. When the circumstances are right, Dedede whips out his mallet, and pummels the nearest foe with a single heavy strike. This is mainly different from executing sword strikes, in that it requires the target to be slightly closer, and has a much lower rate of fire, but dishes out much more damage with every individual hit. This weapon enables him to easily defeat common enemies to accelerate himself, as well as assault and slow his opponents, all without even needing to tap the charge button to slow him down. | ||
