}}
'''Mid-Bosses''' (also called '''Mini-Bosses'''<ref>{{cite manual|quote=Defeat the mini-boss who is on guard.|game=Kirby's Dream Land 2|page=13}}</ref>) are a major part of the ''Kirby'' franchise found in almost every game of the [[Kirby (series)|''Kirby'' series]]. Mid-Bosses are enemies stronger than most regular enemies but weaker than most [[Boss]]es that appear in the worlds that Kirby travels through. Once Kirby enters the small area in which a Mid-Boss is located, he cannot proceed or go back until his opponent has been defeated (with a few exceptions), which usually takes longer than beating a regular enemy. Mid-Bosses also typically give out [[Copy Ability|Copy Abilities]], but these can only be obtained after Kirby has knocked them out, enabling him to inhale and swallow them (in ''[[Kirby Star Allies]]'', ''[[Kirby and the Forgotten Land]]'' and ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe]]'', they are guaranteed to drop the Copy Ability hats even if their bodies are destroyed). Their name comes from the fact that they are similar to bosses, but are found in the middle of the levels.

Like most bosses, Mid-Bosses will drop debris, conjure minions or cause [[Dropped Star]]s to appear when they attack, giving Kirby means to fight back if he has no Copy Ability.

==Distinctions==
It is not always clear what separates a Mid-Boss from other types of enemies. The following will attempt to outline the most common differences that distinguish Mid-Bosses as their own category.

===Differences from normal enemies===
*Mid-Bosses are typically tougher than standard enemies, taking several hits to defeat. They also flinch less than normal enemies, being harder to knock around.
*Mid-Bosses tend to have a [[Health]] bar displayed to the player where regular enemies won't.
*Mid-Bosses usually stand in the way of the playable character, blocking progress until they are defeated.
*Mid-Bosses typically have their own theme that plays during their battles, distinct from the regular stage music.
*Mid-Bosses have a unique 'downed' state once their [[health]] runs out. In this state, they cannot move or attack and can be inhaled for their ability or [[Make Friend|recruited as an ally]]. Mid-Bosses cannot be [[inhale]]d until they are downed in this way (with [[Bandana Waddle Dee|one exception]]).
*Starting with ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land]]'', Mid-Bosses have a distinct 'defeat sound' which sounds like a warbling explosion. This plays when they are KO'd and when they are destroyed.

===Differences from bosses===
*Bosses are typically tougher than Mid-Bosses, and tend to have more [[Health]] in comparison. They also flinch even less than Mid-Bosses.
*Mid-Bosses are typically not fought at the end of levels, nor do they tend to have their own dedicated stages.
*Starting with ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land]]'', bosses have their own 'defeat sound' which is distinct from the Mid-Boss version.
*Starting with ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land]]'', bosses tend to have multiple phases to their attack patterns, with brief periods in-between where they take little or no damage (this distinction would be shared with Mid-Bosses in ''Kirby and the Forgotten Land'').
*Bosses cannot be inhaled, with the exception of [[Flowery Woods]].

Keep in mind that these distinctions are not universal, and exceptions exist throughout the series. They do however fit most circumstances.

===''Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards''===
All Mid-Bosses faced in this game are larger versions of regular enemies, and typically don't have any special moves, but continually spawn smaller enemies to defend it. There are a couple exceptions to this, those being the enemy ambushes, which are also denoted with a health bar. Unlike other Mid-Bosses, they cannot be inhaled, but almost always drop a [[Crystal Shard]] when defeated for the first time.

However, he has the lowest HP of all the mid-bosses. If sufficiently roughed-up, Doc may drop a laser gun, which Kirby can swallow to gain the [[Laser]] ability.

|The strongest member of the Squeaks, Storo boasts the most HP and the strongest attacks. However, he is big and slow, making him easy to hit repeatedly. His attacks involve pounding with a hammer or slamming to the ground with his body. Both attacks produce stars, which can be inhaled and thrown at Storo. If Storo is knocked down, he may drop his hammer, which Kirby can swallow for the [[Hammer]] ability. As a member of the Squeaks, he cannot be swallowed whole upon defeat and will only appear whenever Kirby grabs a large silver-blue treasure chest, or is merely in the same area as one.

|[[Tedhaun]]
|{{center|[[File:KSqS Tedhaun Sprite.png]]}}
|[[Ghost]]
|This mid-boss cannot be encountered without completing the [[Ghost Medal]]. Once it appears, it replaces existing mid-bosses. This mid-boss is the only creature in the game that possesses the extremely rare Ghost ability. It has mini versions of itself that it orders to attack. The mini versions can be used as projectiles. If Kirby comes too close to the mid-boss, the mid-boss grabs him and waits until a mini version collides with Kirby. Then, the boss throws Kirby, damaging him.

*'''3DS Virtual Console manual bio (shared with bosses):''' "''Minibosses appear midway through certain stages. Main bosses appear in the last stage of each island. When a miniboss or boss appears, its life meter is displayed in place of your score. To defeat a boss, reduce its life meter to zero.''"

==Trivia==
*''[[Kirby Super Star]]'' and ''[[Kirby Super Star Ultra]]'' are the only games in the series which have multiple Mid-Bosses who provide the same [[Copy Ability]] when swallowed: [[Jukid]], [[Bugzzy]], and [[Phan Phan]] all give [[Suplex]] (the latter appears only in ''Kirby Super Star Ultra'').
