Ice Dragon makes its first proper appearance in decades in this spin-off title. It is encountered twice during the game, and fights much like its hologram form from Planet Robobot. Its main attacks include running around in a haphazard manner, breathing ice and snowflake blades, and stomping to make icicles fall from the sky and pop out from the ground to kick forward.
Anime
In the Kirby: Right Back at Ya!, Ice Dragon appears in the episode Dedede's Snow Job as a monster ordered by King Dedede because it is very hot in Cappy Town, which the king does not like at all. This incarnation of Ice Dragon is much larger than the one seen in the games and possesses a dark green body, a yellow belly and a long ridge of yellow spikes extending down its back. Its mouth is also shown to contain several sharp, protruding teeth, an attribute that is absent from the games.
Although its skin can withstand very low temperatures, being completely immune to Ice Kirby's attacks, the monster is still vulnerable on the inside.[1] Kirby uses this fact to his advantage by letting Chilly help him jump into the dragon's maw so he can freeze it from within. After being frozen, the Ice Dragon promptly breaks apart into shards of ice, which bury King Dedede and Escargoon as they stand observing what has happened to their monster. Following the dragon's defeat, all the snow and ice it has created begins to melt, restoring Cappy Town to normal.
Trivia
- Since dragons and lions both appear commonly in mythology, Ice Dragon may be the opposite of Fire Lion.
