'''Bandana Waddle Dee''', originally known as '''Waddle Dee''' prior to ''[[Kirby: Triple Deluxe]]'', is a recurring deuteragonist and major supporting character in the [[Kirby (series)|''Kirby'' series]]. As his name implies, he is a [[Waddle Dee]] wearing a blue bandana on his head. His weapon of choice is usually a [[spear]], but sometimes he wields a [[Parasol (enemy)|parasol]]. Originally shown to be [[King Dedede]]'s most loyal subject, he is now shown to be [[Kirby]]'s closest friend and sometimes even assists him in battling the king.
'''Bandana Waddle Dee''', originally known as '''Waddle Dee''' prior to ''[[Kirby: Triple Deluxe]]'', is a recurring deuteragonist and major supporting character in the [[Kirby (series)|''Kirby'' series]]. As his name implies, he is a [[Waddle Dee]] wearing a blue bandana on his head. His weapon of choice is usually a [[spear]], but in some games, such as ''[[Kirby Battle Royale]]'', he wields a [[Parasol (enemy)|parasol]] instead. Originally shown to be [[King Dedede]]'s most loyal subject, later games portray him as [[Kirby]]'s closest friend, and he sometimes even assists Kirby in battling the king.


Bandana Waddle Dee debuted in ''[[Kirby Super Star]]'' as the first opponent in [[Megaton Punch]]. His first major role was in ''[[Kirby Super Star Ultra]]'', as the secondary antagonist of [[Revenge of the King]]. After this, he appeared as one of the four playable protagonists of ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land]]'', and has starred in nearly every game in the ''Kirby'' series since.

==Physical appearance==
==Physical appearance==
Bandana Waddle Dee, just like other Waddle Dees, is a round, orange creature with a peach-colored face, where his eyes and most of the rest of his body are located, though his body is typically of a much redder shade of orange when compared to other members of his species. He has also two yellow feet and small stubby arms. His blue bandana differentiates him from others of his kind. In most of his appearances, he also wields a spear to further differentiate himself; the design of the spear is near-identical to that of the [[Spear]] [[Copy Ability]], but starting in ''[[Kirby Fighters 2]]'', the ribbon tied around it has been orange rather than red. In ''Kirby Battle Royale'', he uses a blue parasol with a star on top of it instead of his usual spear.

==Personality==
==Personality==
Bandana Waddle Dee is most often portrayed as adventurous and energetic, contrasting with the lackadaisical nature of his kind. In ''Kirby's Return to Dream Land'' and ''Kirby Star Allies'', his pause screen descriptions emphasize his courage compared to the other Waddle Dees, going as far as to call him "everyone's idol". Even when not in battle, he still does his best to support Kirby and his friends, as shown by how he provides [[Assist Star]]s in both ''Kirby: Triple Deluxe'' and ''Kirby: Planet Robobot''.

He is also shown to be very determined, but somewhat fearful, in games such as ''Kirby Super Star'' and its remake. In the sub-game [[Revenge of the King]], he became more and more afraid every time Kirby defeated one of [[King Dedede]]'s minions, but even after being spared from fighting Kirby by Dedede, he went into battle anyway. This shows his bravery and strong sense of loyalty to his King. In ''Kirby Battle Royale'', Bandana Waddle Dee showed an intense fear before battling [[Meta Knight]] and King Dedede, but still defeated both, thanks to his determination and faith in Kirby.

Waddle Dee can use his spear to attack, identically to the way [[Spear]] Kirby can. Waddle Dee has the same 40 [[Health|HP]] as [[Kirby]]. Unlike Kirby, [[Meta Knight]], or [[King Dedede]], Waddle Dee doesn't fly, but he can make [[Infinity Jump]]s to keep up.

In ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe]]'', he is now referred to as Bandana Waddle Dee for consistency with later games, and has the orange ribbon around his spear introduced in ''[[Kirby Fighters 2]]''. He also has Ground Thrust from ''[[Kirby Star Allies]]'' added to his move-set. Additionally, a [[Dress-Up Mask]] featuring his likeness can be unlocked by completing card #21 of the [[Stamp Rally]], and wearing it will replace the wearer's voice with Bandana Waddle Dee's.

In ''[[Kirby Battle Royale]]'', Bandana Waddle Dee serves a prominent role in the single-player mode, [[Dedede's Cake Royale]]. Kirby meets up with him on the way to the arena, finding him exhausted, having 'walked all night long' to get there. As such, Kirby agrees to carry him for a while down the trail. After Kirby deals with an enemy ambush, including another blue Kirby, the [[Warp Star]] appears to take them both to the arena.

From here on, Bandana Waddle Dee serves as an ally to Kirby in team matches. Unlike in previous incarnations, Bandana Dee uses a [[Parasol]] instead of a Spear. This Parasol is modeled after the one Kirby uses when copying the Waddle Dee [[Amiibo]] in ''Kirby: Planet Robobot''. While the player cannot play as Bandana Waddle Dee, a hatless Waddle Dee is available who plays much the same.

In ''[[Kirby Star Allies]]'', Bandana Waddle Dee appears as one the first available [[Dream Friend]]s alongside [[Animal Friend#Kirby Star Allies|Rick & Kine & Coo]], [[Marx]] and [[Gooey]], recruitable from a [[Dream Palace]] without the need to unlock him. His moveset is largely the same as it was in ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land]]'' but with a few tweaks, including the ability to have his [[spear]] receive [[Power Effect|elemental powers]] from allies, and, since version 4.0.0., gains the Ground Thrust attack. Since Kirby cannot obtain the [[Spear]] ability in this title, Bandana Waddle Dee is the only user of this [[Copy Ability]] ([[Zan Partizanne]] of [[The Three Mage-Sisters]] has a different style of spear combat when playable as a Dream Friend). Much like in ''Kirby's Return to Dream Land'', Bandana Waddle Dee has 40 HP in most modes, but has the same health as Kirby in [[The Ultimate Choice]].
