An Energy Sphere is a collectible item found in Kirby's Return to Dream Land. Energy Spheres resemble semi-transparent spheres with gears in them, and they apparently power the Lor Starcutter, as they contain some kind of ancient technology.[1]
Energy Spheres are often found in hidden or hard to reach areas throughout the non-boss stages of the game. They unlock doors to sub-games, challenges, and Copy Ability rooms in the Lor Starcutter. There are 120 Energy Spheres in total; each stage (aside from boss stages) contains 3 to 5 Energy Spheres. While collecting Energy Spheres is optional to complete the game, collecting all of the Energy Spheres is mandatory to reach 100% completion.
Sphere Doomers love to eat Energy Spheres,[1] and always yield two of them upon their defeat in the main game. The main bosses of the game hold Part Spheres,[2] which serve a similar purpose, but house one of the Lor Starcutter's main parts instead.

Trivia
- According to the Grand Doomer EX's Special Page,[3] the Energy Spheres tend to create dimensional rifts when separated from the Lor, which is what allowed the Sphere Doomers to emerge in Popstar.
- When collecting a previously collected Energy Sphere, the gear inside will be replaced with a red Point Star, adding ten to the player's total.
