[[File:K64 Flopper Sprite.png]] '''Flopper''' is an enemy from ''[[Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards]]''. It is first encountered in Stage 1 of [[Rock Star]]. It does not yield a [[Copy Ability]] if swallowed. Flopper is a fish with a red body, white belly and yellow fins. It is named as such because most of the time, it is found out of the water, flopping about. It doesn't move very much beyond this, and as such, is only a minor nuisance. When it is fortunate enough to have water, Flopper will often be seen leaping out of it in order to try and catch Kirby. Given that Kirby can inhale underwater in the title this creature appears in, Flopper can then be held over Kirby's head to help him swim through the water faster.
