I've also heard there's something terrible nearby. It's some sort of creature that makes black holes that will suck you in...
— Daroach referring to Schwarz, in Kirby Mass Attack

Schwarz[Japanese title] is an enemy in Kirby Mass Attack. It resides in Volcano Valley - Stage 11, and can only be found in the outer space sections. It is a large circular creature with a mouth full of sharp teeth. When the Kirbys approach, Schwarz creates huge gravity around its mouth, drawing the Kirbys in. If they fall in, they will be KO'd. After a while of this, however, Schwarz will stop and get tired, giving the Kirbys a chance to attack. Schwarz is worth 1,000 points when defeated.

TriviaEdit

  • Its name is likely based on the term "Schwarzchild radius", a term used to describe the distance from a black hole from which point on light cannot escape. As Schwarz acts similarly to the popular conception of a black hole, this name seems fitting enough.
