King Doo debuts in ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land]]'' as a [[Mid-Boss]], behaving like a normal Waddle Doo but with additional moves such as charging at [[Kirby]] and using a Beam Whip mid-air. In [[Extra Mode]], King Doo gains off-white skin and a deep red eye reminiscent of [[Zero]]'s. In this form he gains the ability to turn while attacking in midair, as well as the ability to fire up to three Wave Beams in succession. He also gains an attack similar to the Beam Blast, jumping and firing several medium-sized shots diagonally downwards.

— Tougher Quest description in Team Kirby Clash Deluxe

King Doo is a Mid-Boss debuting in Kirby's Return to Dream Land. He is a large yellow Waddle Doo with a pronounced tuft of hair and shoes with tips that point upward.

As expected from a Waddle Doo, he can use a beam whip attack, which appears essentially identical to a regular Waddle Doo's (though obviously much larger) which he can also use in the air after a jump. King Doo also has the Wave Beam ability, firing a large blast of energy sideways across the field. He also has one non-beam attack, which involves simply charging across the screen. Once defeated, King Doo can be inhaled for the Beam ability.

Kirby's Return to Dream Land / Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe[edit]

King Doo debuts in Kirby's Return to Dream Land as a Mid-Boss, behaving like a normal Waddle Doo but with additional moves such as charging at Kirby and using a Beam Whip midair. In Extra Mode, King Doo gains off-white skin and a deep red eye reminiscent of Zero's. In this form he gains the ability to turn while attacking in midair, as well as the ability to fire up to three Wave Beams in succession. He also gains an attack similar to the Beam Blast, jumping and firing several medium-sized shots diagonally downwards.
