However, she is quickly ambushed and the Crystal splits into several shards. Fortunately, Kirby is willing to help defeating the menace. The Dark Matter cloud is not actually directly fought in this game, but three beings called Dark Rimuru, Dark Rimura, and Dark Rimuro instead possess Waddle Dee (turning him into Waddle Doo), Adeleine, and King Dedede respectively, forcing Kirby to battle with them as minibosses on Pop Star.<ref name="dark trio">https://kaialone.tumblr.com/post/185138285915/kirby-64-translation-the-dark-trios-names</ref> After 0² is defeated, the dark cloud dissipates, and Kirby and his friends are rewarded with medals and nominated heroes for saving the fairies and their planet. | ||

In Japanese, the Dark Matter cloud is referred to as a "dark cloud" with no relation to the individual Dark Matter who appears in ''Kirby's Dream Land 2'' and ''3''. This is also the case in the English ''Kirby's Dream Land 3'' manual.

However, the English manual for ''Kirby 64'' refers to the dark cloud as Dark Matter directly, while the Japan-only book ''Hoshi no Kirby 20th Anniversary Pupupu Taizen'' confirms that Dark Matter and Zero control the dark cloud. Therefore, it is considered to be part of the Dark Matter species, but still a separate being from the individual Dark Matter. | ||
