Rolling Turtle attacks in two different ways. It can either curl up and roll toward [[Kirby]], or toss smaller turtles at him which can be [[inhale]]d. At any point during the fight, if Kirby gets too close to Rolling Turtle, it will grab him, rock him back-and-forth, then release him to deal damage.

In ''[[Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land]]'', Rolling Turtle is replaced by a different opponent for unknown reasons, similarly to [[Bounder]] and [[Togezo]]. In Rolling Turtle's case, its replacement is the elephant-like Mid-Boss [[Phan Phan]]. Rolling Turtle is the only Mid-Boss that is replaced between ''Kirby's Adventure'' and its remake.

==Locations==
Rolling Turtle has two variants that it can appear in. The first is just its regular green form that appears in most stages. The second is a red variant that is exclusive to the secret path in [[Rainbow Resort - Stage 2]]. This version is quicker, making it harder to defeat. Rolling Turtle appears in the following stages in ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]'': ([[Star Bullet]]=10 [[damage]])
*[[Grape Garden - Stage 4]]: 30 [[Stamina|HP]] (green)
*[[Orange Ocean - Stage 1]]: 30 HP (floor covered with water)  (green)
*[[Rainbow Resort - Stage 2]]: 30 HP ([[Tower of Mid-Bosses]]) (green)
*[[Rainbow Resort - Stage 2]]: 30 HP ([[Tower of Mid-Bosses]] Secret Pathway) (red)
 
==Trivia==
*Rolling Turtle's replacement in the series may be due to its strong resemblance to the television character [[wikipedia:Gachapin|Gachapin]].
*In [[fzerowiki:F-Zero GX|F-Zero GX]], one of the newly-introduced [[fzerowiki:Rolling Turtle|F-Zero Machines]] is named after Rolling Turtle.
