Parallel Twin Kracko

|
Parallel Twin Kracko is a duo boss who first appeared in Heroes in Another Dimension of Kirby Star Allies. This boss is based on Twin Kracko in the main Story Mode, though it is fought at the start, and later transforms into Parallel Big Kracko.
Origin
“ | All worlds—whether in another dimension or some far-flung galaxy—are bound by earth and sky. And where there is sky, there is Kracko! Made of fallen tears and the scattered mists of his enemies, Kracko roars with dark power. | ” | — VS Parallel Twin Kracko (English) |
The English localization of Parallel Twin Kracko's pause flavTemplate:Or text doesn't fully describe their origin. The following is the original Japanese text:
“ | そこが 異空間だろうと、全く 別次元の世界だろうと、 天地は かならず そこにある! そして、そこに空が あるかぎり、モクモクとどろき 何度でも生まれる! ナミダを流し 消し飛んでいった、どうほう達の 強い はんぎゃくの心が、異界の空に 今、集ったのだ! |
” | — VS Parallel Twin Kracko (Japanese) |
It describes that Parallel Twin Kracko was made of tears and rebellious hearts of Kracko's fallen fellows (どうほう達). In other words, the origin of Parallel Twin Kracko is similar to Parallel Woods: They were born from their grudges of being defeated countlessly by Kirby throughout the series. Strangely enough, Kracko's parallel counterpart was born as twins, being the stronger version of Twin Kracko instead.
Parallel Woods, Parallel Twin Kracko/Parallel Big Kracko, Parallel Meta Knight and Parallel Dedede are the "Four Otherworldly Kings" as described in the Japanese and Chinese versions.
Physical Appearance
Parallel Twin Kracko and Parallel Big Kracko have a much darker colTemplate:Or scheme than Kracko. Their bodies consist of black clouds with red spikes around and yellow eyes with red and black pupils.
The two parallel twin Krackos are as big as the original Kracko and his duplicate were during his own second phase.
