'''Parallel Dedede''', titled '''Otherworldly Dark Liege''', is a [[:Category:Parallel bosses|parallel boss]] who first appeared in [[Heroes in Another Dimension]] of  ''[[Kirby Star Allies]]''. His battle takes place in the [[Heroes in Another Dimension - Dimension IV|fourth dimension]].
 
'''Parallel Dedede''' is a [[boss]] who first appeared in [[Heroes in Another Dimension]] of  ''[[Kirby Star Allies]]''. He is the last [[:Category:Parallel bosses|Parallel Boss]] faced. His battle takes place in the [[Dimension IV|fourth dimension]]. He is possibly the strongest parallel boss that battles the player.


==Origin==
==Origin==
The origin of Parallel Dedede is similar to that of [[Parallel Meta Knight]]: As the original [[King Dedede]] and [[Meta Knight]] were defeated by [[Kirby]] in Story Mode, their spirits and the [[Jamba Heart]]s possessing them went to [[Another Dimension]] and the parallel versions were born. The English, French, Dutch, Italian, German and Spanish pause screen descriptions incorrectly state that it was born from "the Jamba Heart that King Dedede brought to Hyness", when in truth it was born from "the Jamba Heart that King Dedede absorbed at the beginning of the story, that was collected back by Hyness" as stated in the original Japanese and localized Chinese texts. The Korean text attributes the birth to "the Jamba Heart that took King Dedede into a world of darkness at the beginning of the story", which differs from the original text but in any case at least avoids the incorrect implication that Dedede brought the Jamba Heart to [[Hyness]].

[[Parallel Woods]], [[Parallel Twin Kracko]]/[[Parallel Big Kracko]], Parallel Meta Knight and Parallel Dedede are the "Otherworldly Four Heavenly Kings" as described in the Japanese, Chinese and Korean versions.

Parallel Dedede has a darker look than [[King Dedede]], with gray skin, dark purple extremities and a black-lined robe. When he loses his hammer and enters the second phase, he can also transform into the buff form like the possessed Dedede in [[Clash at Castle Dedede]].

Parallel Dedede fights in a very similar manner to the standard [[King Dedede]] fight, but he has double the [[health]] of the original Dedede and more potent moves. Nearly all of his leaps and slams will produce shockwaves, and he uses his attacks more frequently and quickly. He even gains a new move: pulling out [[Gordo]]s and hitting them with his hammer to knock them into Kirby and his allies, which is a direct reference to the [[smashwiki:Gordo Throw|Gordo Throw]] side special move that the original [[smashwiki:King Dedede|King Dedede]] has from ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U]]'' onwards.

When Parallel Dedede beefs up in his second phase, he will only pound the floor away to change the arena once, leading to a room with no pillars in it. Instead, Parallel Dedede will bound around the open rooms and climb up the walls, similarly to how [[Goriath]] fights. The food tossed by Parallel Dedede can be turned into recovery [[food]] by [[Splash]]-element attacks.

The following lists all of Parallel Dedede's attacks during his boss battle. Note that all names are conjectural, though mostly based upon King Dedede's corresponding attacks.
When Parallel Dedede is defeated, his buff transformation is deactivated and he falls down in the same classic pose of the original Dedede.

!colspan=2|First phase: Parallel Dedede wields his hammer and attacks in a similar fashion to his regular counterpart.
|-
!width="20%"|'''Attack'''
!width="80%"|'''Description'''
|-
|'''Head Slide'''
|Parallel Dedede runs and dives into Kirby or an ally. His dive goes as far as [[Shadow Dedede]]'s and [[King D-Mind]]'s.
|-
|'''Hypernova Inhale ~ Spit'''
|Parallel Dedede runs up to a target and then inhales with a range of about half the stage. If he succeeds in swallowing someone, he will then spit them out.
|-
|'''Dedede Jump'''
|Parallel Dedede jumps into the air and attempts to land on Kirby or an ally. He leaves a Dropped Star and some shockwaves on each side when landing.
|-
|'''Hammer'''
|Parallel Dedede slams his hammer in front of him. This leaves a star from his hammer. If he gets close to an airborne target, he will instead jump into the air and slam the hammer down, producing a shockwave. Both the hammer and shockwave leave behind stars.
|-
|'''Gordo Throw'''
|Parallel Dedede pulls out a [[Gordo]] and then hits it with his hammer, sending it bouncing across the arena. He does this three times, at slightly different trajectories.
|-
|'''Hover'''
|Parallel Dedede takes in air and starts flying. Once he is finished, he releases an [[Air Bullet]] and falls back to ground level.
|-
!colspan=2|Second phase: When Parallel Dedede's stamina is below about 65%, his hammer is destroyed and lost.<br>Now his body gets buffed and he attacks with his giant beefy arms.
|-
!'''Attack'''
!'''Description'''
|-
|'''Stage Transition'''
|Parallel Dedede slams the floor with his beefy arms, causing it to break and sending everyone to a lower level.<br>He always begins the second phase with this attack.
|-
|'''Dedede Jump'''
|In this phase, Parallel Dedede jumps into the air and slams the ground with his beefy arms. He leaves two stars and two shockwaves on each side when landing. He may do this jump once or three times.
|-
|'''Dispose Food'''
|Parallel Dedede collects some rotten food from the pile and tosses it at Kirby or an ally. This food is dangerous if swallowed, but can be cleaned using [[Water]] or any [[Splash]] elemental ability. Unlike regular Dedede, Parallel Dedede will also throw Gordos from the food pile; one for the second set and two for the third set.
|-
|'''Desperate Dam Dam'''
|Parallel Dedede attacks with his beefy arms, slamming the ground in succession. Every slam leaves a star. Unlike macho Dedede, he slams six times before finishing his combo.<br>At the end of Parallel Dedede's combo, a rock is flipped out from the floor, which can be swallowed for the [[Stone]] ability.
|-
|'''Extra Dedede Jump'''
|Parallel Dedede hovers towards the ceiling and then slams down on the ground, doing so moving left-to-right or right-to-left. Each time he slams the ground, he leaves behind some Dropped Stars.
*This attack resembles [[Team DDD|Giant King Dedede]]'s Extra Dedede Jump from ''[[Kirby Fighters Deluxe]]'', so its conjectural name is based upon it.
|-
|'''Consecutive Bound Rocket'''
|Parallel Dedede grabs hold of a wall and then bounds left-and-right six times, before slamming into the ground in the middle of the arena. After the ground slam, he will land on the ground like the end of a Dedede Jump, leaving behind shockwaves. Each wall-bound and the final ground slam leaves behind stars.
*This attack resembles [[Goriath]]'s Consecutive Bound Rocket from ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land]]'', so its conjectural name is based upon it.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*Interestingly enough, Parallel Dedede's color scheme was tweaked between the original reveal of Wave 3 and the release. His original version had much more subdued colors that did not pop out nearly as much.
*Interestingly enough, Parallel Dedede's col{{ou}}r scheme was tweaked between the original reveal of Wave 3 and the release. His original version had much more subdued col{{ou}}rs that did not pop out nearly as much.
*The rest area used before the Parallel Dedede battle in Soul Melter EX of [[The Ultimate Choice]] plays the "[[Dangerous Dinner (theme)|Dangerous Dinner]]" stage select theme from ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land]]''. Interestingly, both words of Dangerous Dinner begin with D, and like the possessed Dedede in [[Clash at Castle Dedede]], he is also gorging himself on a pile of fruits before the battle begins.
*The rest area used before Parallel Dedede battles the player in Soul Melter EX of [[The Ultimate Choice]] plays the map theme of [[Dangerous Dinner]] from ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land]]''. Interestingly, both words of Dangerous Dinner begin with D, and like the possessed Dedede in [[Clash at Castle Dedede]], he is also gorging himself on a pile of fruits before the battle begins.
*In Soul Melter EX of [[The Ultimate Choice]], Parallel Dedede gives higher scores (10000+50000, tied with the rest of the [[boss]]es after him except [[Void]]) than the other three parallel bosses (3000+15000 each).
*Parallel Dedede's splash card caption, Otherworldly Dark Liege (異界の暗君), has another meaning in Japanese and Chinese. 暗君 can also mean "foolish/incapable liege".
*In Soul Melter EX of [[The Ultimate Choice]], Parallel Dedede gives higher scores (10000+50000, tied with the rest [[boss]]es after him except [[Void (boss)|Void]]) than the other three parallel bosses (3000+15000 each).
*One of Parallel Dedede's attacks in the first phase has him pulling out [[Gordo]]s and hitting them with his hammer to knock them into Kirby and his allies. This is a direct reference to the [[smashwiki:Gordo Throw|Gordo Toss]] side special move that [[smashwiki:King Dedede|King Dedede]] has in the last two ''[[Super Smash Bros. (series)|Super Smash Bros.]]'' games.
