“ | Heeheehee~! Are you really that good? Let's see if you can match MY power! | ” | — Gryll in the SNES version of Kirby's Star Stacker (unofficial translation) |
Gryll[1][2] is the final boss of the SNES version of Kirby's Star Stacker. This boss appears after the credits roll in the main game, as a surprise encounter if Kirby managed to beat all his previous foes without losing once, and is the most difficult challenge in the game. Gryll appears to be some sort of space-traveling witch who flies around on a broomstick. Their exact gender is unknown, as none of their appearances use gendered terms (which is much more often the case in the series' Japanese text).
Unlike the other opponents, Kirby challenges Gryll out in space. Gryll attacks Kirby by thwacking him with a broomstick.
