Searches is a disc-shaped black bomb with a yellow face consisting of only a pair of angry eyes, and four red bumpy extrusions, one on each side. It hovers in place and waits for an intruder to enter its proximity. Then it lights its fuse, turning red and, if not stopped, detonates in a large explosion that can harm at great range.

===''Kirby's Dream Collection: Special Edition''===
In the [[New Challenge Stages]] [[Sub-Game]], Searches is one of the enemies that can appear in courses. It is identical in look and behavior to its appearance in ''Kirby's Return to Dream Land''.
===''Kirby: Triple Deluxe''===
Searches returns in ''[[Kirby: Triple Deluxe]]'', retaining its look and function from the previous encounter. Unlike in ''Return to Dream Land'', however, Searches is usually only found in hidden areas, specifically to provide the Crash ability for use on Mid-Bosses and other obstacles.
