'''Sir Slippy''' is an enemy which first appeared in ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]'' and has since reappeared in three other games, including the aforementioned game's remake ''[[Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land]]'', ''[[Kirby Super Star]]'' and [[Kirby Super Star Ultra|its remake]]. In every game that it has appeared in, Sir Slippy resembles a round, usually orange [[wikipedia:frog|frog]] with two feet. Sir Slippy also appears in two spin-off titles: ''[[Kirby's Pinball Land]]'' and ''[[Kirby's Block Ball]]''.
'''Slippy'''<ref>Name taken from ''Kirby's Pinball Land'' Instruction Booklet (American release), Page 9</ref> is a bulbous yellow-orange frog-like creature with two feet that commonly inhabits pools of [[water (environment)|water]], but can also be seen hopping around on land. It first appeared in ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]'', where it serves as one of the game's regular [[enemy|enemies]], and can be seen in a handful of subsequent [[Kirby (series)|''Kirby'' games]], making its last proper appearance in ''[[Kirby Super Star Ultra]]''.


In every main series game that Sir Slippy has appeared in, it is usually swimming around in the water. Due to its amphibian nature, Sir Slippy is also capable of moving around on land, where it hops around, injuring [[Kirby]] upon contact. A Sir Slippy does not provide a [[Copy Ability]] when swallowed by Kirby.
Slippy's movements can be hard to predict at times, particularly when it is hopping around on land, making it a moderate threat to [[Kirby]] when he enters its territory. Aside from that, however, Slippy has little in the means of defense aside from contact [[damage]], and can be [[inhale]]d easily. It grants no [[Copy Ability]] when swallowed, however.

Slippy[1] is a bulbous yellow-orange frog-like creature with two feet that commonly inhabits pools of water, but can also be seen hopping around on land. It first appeared in Kirby's Adventure, where it serves as one of the game's regular enemies, and can be seen in a handful of subsequent Kirby games, making its last proper appearance in Kirby Super Star Ultra.

Slippy's movements can be hard to predict at times, particularly when it is hopping around on land, making it a moderate threat to Kirby when he enters its territory. Aside from that, however, Slippy has little in the means of defense aside from contact damage, and can be inhaled easily. It grants no Copy Ability when swallowed, however.
