'''Shadow Dedede''' is the penultimate boss in [[Dededetour!]] of ''[[Kirby: Triple Deluxe]]'', and appears as the second of the Nightmare Four from [[The True Arena]] in that game. Shadow Dedede appears to be an evil doppelgänger of [[King Dedede]], though his pause description describes him as a miserable automaton, lashing out in anger because he knows nothing else. Shadow Dedede looks more or less the same as King Dedede, but with an obviously darker color scheme, blank white eyes, and a different symbol on his coat and hammer, resembling a monochrome bulls-eye.


Shadow Dedede comes out of the [[Dimension Mirror]] after King Dedede defeats [[Queen Sectonia]] DX in Level 6 of [[Dededetour!]].

Shadow Dedede appears to be an evil doppelganger of [[King Dedede]], though his pause description describes him as a miserable automaton, lashing out in anger because he knows nothing else. Shadow Dedede looks more or less the same as King Dedede, but with an obviously darker color scheme, and a different symbol on his coat and hammer, resembling a monochrome bulls-eye.
This fight effectively serves as the DX version of the fight with [[Masked Dedede]] in the Story Mode of ''[[Kirby: Triple Deluxe]]''. However, there are a couple key differences. First, Shadow Dedede only has one life bar, and he switches to the axe portion after it is halfway depleted. Second, he possesses some oddly different attacks, including one where his belly sash opens up into a mouth, and fires out orbs of dark energy.


The following are all of Shadow Dedede's attacks. Note that attack names are conjectural:

|-
!Attack
!Description
|-
|'''ヘッドスライディング'''<br>''Head Slide''

|-
|'''スーパーデデデジャンプ'''<br>''Super Dedede Jump''
|Shadow Dedede leaps into the air and then lands suddenly in another location, before repeating two more times. In the second phase, these jumps create shockwaves upon landing.
|-
|'''ハンマー叩き付け/アクス斬り付け'''<br>''Hammer Slam/Axe Slash''
|Shadow Dedede raises his hammer and slams the ground with it twice in a row. If Kirby or Dedede is airborne, then Shadow Dedede will jump up and swing the hammer in midair. When he lands, a shockwave emanates from it. In the second phase, he does this attack with his axe instead, with each swing on ground level causing shockwaves.
|-
|'''ビッグバンすいこみ'''<br>''Hypernova Inhale''
|Shadow Dedede inhales, creating a big vortex. If Kirby or Dedede don't run fast enough from the suction, they will be sucked up and then spat out at the screen.
|-
|'''ブラックデデデミサイル'''<br>''Shadow Dedede Missile''
|Shadow Dedede preps his hammer, which opens up and shoots out four missiles. The missiles can be swallowed for the [[Bomb]] [[Copy Ability|ability]].

|-
!colspan=2|'''Second phase only''' &nbsp;
|-
|'''斧の舞'''<br>''Axe Dance''

|-
|'''アクスボンバー'''<br>''Axe Bomber''
|Shadow Dedede jumps into the air with his poleaxe, and then comes crashing down, creating a large explosion where he lands. He does this attack three times in a row compared to Masked Dedede.
|-
|'''ベリィブラックマター'''<br>''Belly Black Matter''
|Shadow Dedede flies into the background and his belly opens up into a big maw. Out of this maw, a series of eight dark orb blasts are fired. Shadow Dedede then flies on-stage and fires three larger blasts which can bounce around.
|-
|'''アクストルネイド'''<br>''Axe Tornado''
|Shadow Dedede spins his axe rapidly around in an attempt to catch Kirby or Dedede in his dance. He gets dizzy afterwards.
|-
|'''シャイニングアクス'''<br>''Shining Axe''
|Shadow Dedede charges his poleaxe in the center of the stage, then releases two waves of spiky energy orbs across the stage that cover almost every portion of it.
|-
|'''アクスショット'''<br>''Axe Shot''
|Shadow Dedede charges his poleaxe, then releases a series of energy orb projectiles that slightly home in on Kirby or Dedede. Inhaling these projectiles will yield the [[Beam]] ability.
|-
|'''フライングアクス'''<br>''Flying Axe''
|Shadow Dedede spins rapidly around with his axe surrounded by dark energy and takes to the skies, flying in and out of the arena. He gets dizzy afterwards.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*The English, French, German, Italian and Spanish flavor texts misinterpret the last sentence. According to the original Japanese and the localized Korean versions, it should be "<u>King Dedede</u>'s true opponent is the darkness in his own heart."<ref>{{cite|女王の間に かざられていた なぞのカガミ。<br>そこに うつしだされた ブラックなデデデ、<br>りゃくして ブラデ があらわれた!<br>大王が のりこえるべき あいて…<br>それは、大王じしんの 心のカゲだった。|VS Shadow Dedede|''[[Kirby: Triple Deluxe]]'', Japanese version}}</ref><ref>{{cite|여왕의 방에 걸려 있던 수수께끼 거울.<br>그 거울에 비춰진 검은 디디디가<br>거울 밖으로 튀어나왔다!<br>대왕이 뛰어넘어야 할 상대...<br>그것은 대왕 본인의 마음 속 그림자였다.|VS Shadow Dedede|''Kirby: Triple Deluxe'', Korean version}}</ref> The Japanese version also calls him  '''ブラデ''' (''Burade'') for short, which is an abbreviation of his full Japanese name '''ブラックデデデ''' ''Black Dedede''.

**The Japanese abbreviation could be a parody of [[icaruspedia:Dark Pit|Dark Pit]] from ''[[icaruspedia:Kid Icarus: Uprising|Kid Icarus: Uprising]]'' (Black Pit in Japanese), who is nicknamed ブラピ (''Burapi'') in that version for short.
**The Japanese abbreviation could be a parody of [[icaruspedia:Dark Pit|Dark Pit]] from ''[[icaruspedia:Kid Icarus: Uprising|Kid Icarus: Uprising]]'' (Black Pit in Japanese), who is officially called ブラピ (''Burapi'') in short.
*[[King D-Mind]] is named "MaskedBlackDedede" in the internal game files of ''[[Team Kirby Clash Deluxe]]''. "Black Dedede" is the Japanese name of Shadow Dedede, and King D-Mind's moveset can be considered an even more souped-up version of Shadow Dedede despite them being two different characters.
*Due to similarities in look and source code name, [[King D-Mind]] can be seen as the souped-up version of Shadow Dedede, despite them being different characters.
*When Shadow Dedede opens up his belly sash to reveal a mouth, he spurts off blood. This is one of the few Kirby bosses with on-screen depictions of blood; with the others being [[Zero]], [[]], [[Dark Meta Knight#Kirby: Triple Deluxe|Dark Meta Knight's Revenge]], [[Star Dream Soul OS]] and [[Void Termina]]'s First Core.
