Each Antler, regardless of type, resembles a lavishly decorated anthropomorphic ant soldier with a mace and a shield. Their shield is largely cosmetic, however, as it will not protect them from projectiles. They slowly approach their target, then swing their mace into the ground to attack.

Antlers[Japanese title][1] (also referred to as Bugs[2]) are summoned enemies that debuted in Kirby: Triple Deluxe which appear only during the fights with Queen Sectonia. They come in four different sizes, with each size being tougher and taking longer to inhale than before.

Each Antler, regardless of type, resembles a lavishly decorated anthropomorphic ant soldier with a magic scepter and a shield. Their shield is largely cosmetic, however, as it will not protect them from projectiles. They slowly approach their target, then swing their mace into the ground to attack.

Their names are a pun on both the word "ant" (what the enemy resembles) and "antler" (the branching horns of a deer or moose).
