'''Squishy''' is among the oldest and most ubiquitous enemies of the [[Kirby (series)|''Kirby'' series]], making its first appearance in ''[[Kirby's Dream Land]]'', the first game of the series, and appearing in most main series titles since then. Squishy appears to be a white squid with two thin eyes. It can operate both on land and in [[Water (environment)|water]], as well as occasionally fly through the air. On land, it usually jumps or waddles about, attempting to collide with [[Kirby]]. In the water, it will swim in bursts, rather than at a continuous pace. It does not yield any [[Copy Ability]] when swallowed.
'''Squishy''' is one of the oldest and most recurring [[Enemy|enemies]] of the [[Kirby (series)|''Kirby'' series]], making its first appearance in ''[[Kirby's Dream Land]]'', the first game of the series, and appearing in most main series titles since then. Squishy's classic look is of a white squid with two thin eyes, though in more recent titles, it has gained more distinguishing features, including a cream body color and blue spots on its head. It can operate both on land and in [[Water (environment)|water]], as well as occasionally fly through the air. On land, it usually jumps or waddles about, attempting to collide with [[Kirby]]. In the water, it will swim in bursts, rather than at a continuous pace. It does not yield any [[Copy Ability]] when swallowed.


Sometimes, Squishy is replaced by a more formidable enemy that mimics its behavior, called [[Flotzo]]. This is the case in [[Extra Game]] in ''[[Kirby's Dream Land]]'', and in [[Revenge of the King]] in ''[[Kirby Super Star Ultra]]''. In earlier titles, Squishy could be seen swimming in water or flying through the air. Starting with ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land]]'', however, these enemies became strictly aquatic swimmers, and are no longer able to fly, instead becoming grounded if found outside of water.

Squishy returns in this title and its remake, serving as an amphibious foe who is just as at home on land as in the water. It retains its ability to leap, and can waddle around on dry land as quickly as a [[Waddle Dee]].

Squishy is a comparatively rare enemy in ''Kirby's Adventure'' and ''Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land'', appearing in only a few stages. Strangely enough, it is not found anywhere in [[Ice Cream Island]] or [[Orange Ocean]], despite being an aquatic foe who would be at home in those levels. Squishy can be found in the following levels and stages:

Squishy (known here as '''Squishy Squid'''<ref>Name taken from ''Kirby's Pinball Land'' Instruction Booklet (American release), Page 14</ref>) makes an appearance in [[Poppy Brothers' Land]]. It initially appears inside a thought cloud of one of the Kirbys on the board. If the Kirby is hit while Squishy is in there, the Squishy Squid will be released into the middle of the board, where it can help Kirby reach the higher board.

Squishy Squid also makes an appearance in the mini-game of the same board, as the goalie on a soccer field. Kirby's job here is to try and get past the squid and into the goal. If the squid catches Kirby, it will throw him back toward the bottom of the board.

Squishy appears as a common enemy in ''[[Kirby's Dream Course]]''. It does not provide any ability when defeated, and always remains stationary. In this game, it functions the exactly the same as [[Kabu]], [[Broom Hatter|Broomhatter]], and [[Waddle Dee]].

Squishy appears as a [[monster]] in the episode [[Dedede's Raw Deal]]. Here, it is much larger than its video game counterpart (although it initially appears as a sushi topping). It is sent to attack Kirby after he eats a [[Mint Leaf|sweet potato]], which gives him the hiccups and makes him unable to [[inhale]], and thus unable to fight back properly. Squishy attacks Kirby by grabbing him with its tentacles and throwing him around. It can also shoot balls of lightning at him, which makes it similar to [[Master Green]] in this appearance. Lastly, Squishy has the ability to fly through the air, though this ability is not used until it tries to flee.

Lastly, Squishy has the ability to fly through the air, though this ability is not used until it tries to flee.


After Kirby is scared by [[Tiff]] out of his hiccups, he is able to inhale one of these lightning shots to gain the [[Spark]] [[Copy Ability]]. Using this, Kirby deals a rapid volley of electric blasts which defeats Squishy, turning it into many cuts of calamari that rain down onto the ground. In the Japanese version, Squishy is capable of speech, though it mainly just repeats the phrase (translated) "Squid Spark".
