'''Ringle''' is a hovering enemy that debuted in ''[[Kirby: Triple Deluxe]]'', first encountered in the [[Fine Fields]] level. It yields the [[Bell]] ability when swallowed.
'''Ringle''' is an enemy that debuted in ''[[Kirby: Triple Deluxe]]''. It resembles a small black creature with red feet, blue eyes, and a large golden bell on its head. It is the only enemy in the [[Kirby (series)|''Kirby'' series]] that yields the [[Bell]] [[Copy Ability]] when [[inhale]]d by [[Kirby]].


==Overview==
It simply walks around on the ground, but it is also capable of hovering in the air. If Kirby or [[King Dedede]] get close to it, it tolls its bell, and the sound waves that come off of it can harm them if they get too close. Ringle only has a mild amount of HP.
It resembles a small black creature with red feet, blue eyes, and a large golden bell on its head. It can walk around on the ground, but it is also capable of hovering in the air. When threatened, it tolls its bell, and the sound waves that come off of it can harm Kirby or King Dedede if they get too close. Ringle only has a mild amount of HP, so if its defense fails, it is easy pickings.


So far, Ringle is the only enemy that provides the Bell Ability.

===''Kirby: Planet Robobot''===
Although Ringle does not appear physically in ''[[Kirby: Planet Robobot]]'', a [[Sticker (Kirby: Planet Robobot)|sticker]] of it can be collected and applied to the [[Robobot Armor]].
 
===''Kirby's Dream Buffet''===

==In the ''Kirby'' novel series==
[[File:V2 Ringle Illustration.png|thumb|150px|Ringle, as seen in ''[[Kirby and the Big Panic in Gloomy Woods!]]'']]
In the [[Kirby (novel series)|''Kirby'' novel series]], Ringle appears as a cameo character in the second volume, ''[[Kirby and the Big Panic in Gloomy Woods!]]''.
 
Here, Ringle along with his friend [[Broom Hatter]] live in an ancient ruined building within the [[Gloomy Woods]] area of [[Dream Land]]. After the disappearance of "[[Minor characters#Minor characters in the Kirby novel series|the master]]" of the place, Ringle is tasked with protecting the sacred crystal located in the ruins—the [[Stardust Fruit|Stardust Crystal]], as an obligation made by his past relatives. Rumors of the master claim that the ringing of a bell resounds upon its awakening, allowing Ringle to make use of himself by scaring off intruders.
 
In ''Kirby and the Big Panic in Gloomy Woods!'', [[Kirby (novel character)|Kirby]] enters the ruins without fear, despite Ringle's bell ringing. After a failed attempt at intimidation, Ringle launches himself at Kirby, only to be [[inhale]]d, providing the puffball with the [[Bell]] [[Copy Ability]]. Later, he is finally released after Kirby and friends go running after the crystal, which had been abruptly stolen. They succeed at this in the end, and the crystal is safely returned to Ringle and Broom Hatter.
