Greater Doomer is a spectral bird-like entity from Another Dimension that is encountered twice in Team Kirby Clash Deluxe and seven more times in Super Kirby Clash. As its name suggests, its size and power is intermediate between a Sphere Doomer and the Grand Doomer. Greater Doomer appears twice during the events of Team Kirby Clash Deluxe--once in the Ruins, and again in the Dunes. Unlike the other standard enemy encounters, it bears both its own theme music and a unique entrance. In Super Kirby Clash, it has many more appearances, and can appear alongside Telepathos and Venom Kracko to form Team Floatrio.
Description
| “ | A lost bird's wings spread across the dimensions and blend into the night sky... | ” | — flavor text from Super Kirby Clash |
Greater Doomer resembles an ordinary purple Sphere Doomer, but is much larger, and bears more tail feathers (which appears to be correlated to its power level, as it still has less than the Grand Doomer). Unlike its relatives, Greater Doomer's mouth does not contain a sphere, but instead a black void. Like the Grand Doomer, it can manifest itself in Kirby's native dimension to do battle with him. In addition to standard flight, Greater Doomer is also capable of teleporting.
Attacks
| “ | A strange bird creeps in from another world, mindlessly seeking energy. Watch its movements closely and drive it back! | ” | — flavor text from Super Kirby Clash |
Greater Doomer's attacks are borrowed from both its smaller and larger relatives. It can fire and drop orbs, rocket across the screen, teleport around, burst in dark energy, and swoop about the stage. Its airborne nature and teleporting makes it difficult for Team Kirby to attack consistently, but it is more vulnerable to the Beam Mage's Time Beam effect than grounded enemies are.
The following are all of Greater Doomer's attacks in Team Kirby Clash Deluxe and Super Kirby Clash. Note that attack names are conjectural:
