'''Togekuki''' is an enemy that debuted in ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land]]''. So far, it has not appeared in any other games. Togekuki resembles a pole-shaped cactus with large protruding spikes and a small orange head on top, also covered in spikes. The head bears a single eye. Togekuki cannot move, and as such, can only really function as a course hazard and a source for the [[Needle]] ability.

Togekuki is first found in the [[Raisin Ruins]] level, where it serves as an obstacle for Kirby and his companions in select areas. It cannot be inhaled at first, but attacking it with any non-direct methods will cause it to shrink in height. After enough damage, the cactus pole will have vanished entirely, leaving only the head which still stays in place. This can be inhaled for the [[Needle]] ability, or simply dispatched.
