Grizzos first appear in ''[[Kirby's Dream Land]]''. Here, their official artwork shows them to be light blue with a yellow headband, as well as omitting their stripes, although the latter are clearly visible in the enemy's sprite. Grizzos are only encountered in [[Green Greens]], where they hop around, reducing [[Kirby]]'s health by two bars should they manage to collide with him. They are sometimes seen bearing [[Poppy Bros. Jr.]]s on their back, which does not change their behavior.

Defeating a Grizzo that is being used as a mount enables the rider to continue on its own; likewise, inhaling or otherwise eliminating the rider does not harm the Grizzo. Despite their large size, Grizzos can be inhaled just as easily as most other enemies, and only take a single hit to defeat.

In ''[[Kirby Super Star|{{KSS KFP}}]]'' and [[Kirby Super Star Ultra|its remake]], Grizzos reappear as common enemies. Here, they are usually depicted with pale yellow fur, as well as red or pink headbands and stripes. They are often found sleeping, though most of them wake up once attacked. When awake, they act similarly to their ''Kirby's Dream Land'' incarnation, but are able to charge at Kirby at a very high speed. While the cannot carry other enemies anymore, Grizzos now possess an enormous amount of health, which can make them very time-consuming to defeat. Hopwever, in spite of their sturdiness, Kirby can inhale them as easily as most other enemies, although he receives no [[Copy Ability]] by swallowing them.

[[File:V2 Illustration 15.png|thumb|150px|Grizzo, as seen in ''[[Kirby and the Big Panic in Gloomy Woods!]]'']]
Grizzo briefly appears as a cameo in the second volume of the [[Kirby (novel series)|''Kirby'' novel series]], ''[[Kirby and the Big Panic in Gloomy Woods!]]''. Here, its physical appearance is identical to its game design. It appears wandering in the darkness of the "Gloomy Woods" area within [[Dream Land]] during the night, where it comes face-to-face with [[King Dedede (novel character)|King Dedede]], who had become lost in the woods. Grizzo threatens him and prepares to attack, but is quickly dealt with after Dedede mistakenly smacks it in the dark, scaring it off. Grizzo is not seen again after this.
