'''Key Dee'''<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20151230174144/https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYMHAAACAADMUKmD1DpmEA Miiverse]</ref> (known as '''Carry Dee''' and '''Wonkey''' in internal game data) is a brightly colored enemy that resembles a [[Waddle Dee]] and sports a small tail and red swirls on its cheeks. It first appeared in ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land]]'', and has appeared in all main series installments (and some spin-offs) since then. It is almost without exception seen carrying [[item]]s, usually [[Key]]s. [[Kirby]] or another character is often tasked to collect the item in hand before the Key Dee gets away.

Key Dee, called Carry Dee in this game's internal files, can be found in many stages in ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land]]'', usually inside a closed chamber—starting in a place where Kirby cannot reach it. From here, some mechanism can usually be tripped to set the Key Dee free, where it will then run off with its Key. Kirby will have to chase down the Key Dee and intercept it before it falls into a [[bottomless pit]] or other hazard, taking the Key with it. Other times, Kirby will have to stop the Key Dee from using the Key on the wrong [[door]].

Key Dees can move at various speeds, and have the ability to jump over certain obstacles when their path is blocked. They tend to fall off cliffs, though, so Kirby may have to make them a path in some instances. In [[Extra Mode]], Key Dees generally move faster, making it harder for Kirby to keep up.

=== ''Kirby's Return to Dream Land'' / ''Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe'' ===
Key Dee, called Carry Dee in this game's internal files, can be found in many stages in ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land]]'' and its [[Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe|remake]], usually inside a closed chamber—starting in a place where Kirby cannot reach it. From here, some mechanism can usually be tripped to set the Key Dee free, where it will then run off with its Key. Kirby will have to chase down the Key Dee and intercept it before it falls into a [[bottomless pit]] or other hazard, taking the Key with it. Other times, Kirby will have to stop the Key Dee from using the Key on the wrong [[door]].
Key Dees can move at various speeds, and have the ability to jump over certain obstacles when their path is blocked. They tend to fall off cliffs, though, so Kirby may have to make them a path in some instances. In [[Extra Mode]], Key Dees generally move faster, making it harder for Kirby to keep up. In [[Magolor Epilogue: The Interdimensional Traveler]], some Key Dees can be seen carrying [[Magic Point]]s.

Key Dee makes a few small appearances in ''[[Kirby: Planet Robobot]]'', serving the same function as before, though instead of Keys, they carry [[Battery|Batteries]]. In one particular instance, Kirby and [[Meta Knight]] have to guide an aspiring Key Dee through heavy traffic. When encountered in [[Meta Knightmare Returns]], Key Dees are found with the same color scheme and move at the exact same speed as that of its Dededetour! appearance.

In ''[[Kirby's Blowout Blast]]'', Key Dee holds a [[Score Coin|golden coin]] and will attempt to run off an edge, either if Kirby gets too close or takes too long to dispatch it. Defeating it will automatically confer the coin upon Kirby.
