{{quote|This indestructible cannon packs quite a wallop!|[[Patch Plaza]] description of '''Shotzo''' from ''[[Kirby's Epic Yarn]]''.}}
'''Shotzo''' is an impregnable, projectile-spitting foe and one of [[Kirby]]'s oldest and most commonly-occurring [[Enemy|enemies]], making its debut appearance in ''[[Kirby's Dream Land]]''. They look like cannons made of black metal and attack by shooting cannon balls at Kirby. While most Shotzos are unable to move, they sometimes drop from the sky on [[Parasol (enemy)|Parasols]]. Regular Shotzos come in two variants: One that sternly keeps facing in one direction, and one that constantly adjusts its aim to hit Kirby. The non-aiming Shotzos often fire whole barrages of cannon balls, only stopping at short intervals. Shotzos cannot typically be directly destroyed. However, they can be dropped into a bottomless pit if they happen to stand on a [[Star Block]].

In ''[[Kirby's Dream Land]]'', Shotzo looks and acts like in all its subsequent appearances: A cannon that shoots cannonballs at [[Kirby]], often firing three and then pausing. It can only be killed either by the [[Mike (item)|Microphone]], or while Kirby is under the effect of the [[Invincible Candy]] by standing in one for a few seconds. This can be seen in [[Castle Lololo]] where the Invincible Candy and a Shotzo exist in the same room.

Shotzos make their debut 3D appearance in ''[[Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards]]''. These cannon-like enemies situate themselves within drop-holes, areas of low terrain, and interestingly, even exist as part of the background in few select stages, shooting small bullets at Kirby from afar. Regardless of location, these enemies cannot be defeated or ingested, and thus must be avoided if Kirby is to escape injury-free. A wall-mounted version of this standard foe, the [[Wall Shotzo]], also appears.

It can be seen positioned on race courses, where it regularly fires bullets that can impede the racers. Shotzo's bullets have the appearance of hard candy, and will stun Kirby for a short time if he collides with one.
