“ | Two eyes glare in the gloom like an angry face in the sky—this isn’t what Kracko’s like back on Popstar! Twice as fluffy and twice as mean, Twin Kracko’s combo attacks are brutal—but they’re no match for the power of friendship! | ” | — Pause Menu info from Twin Kracko's battle |
Twin Kracko are a duo Boss who made their debut in Kirby Star Allies. They appear on the Gabbel Moon stage in Far-Flung Starlight Heroes, right after Kracko is defeated. They are also fought in Guest Star ???? Star Allies Go! and The Ultimate Choice - again after Kracko.
Overview
Twin Kracko possess most of the same attacks as Kracko solo, but they coordinate their attacks to cover a great deal more ground at once. They are also individually larger than Kracko solo, making it even harder to dodge their swooping movements. However, they are not without their weaknesses, as when they perform their rain attack, they can be greatly harmed by Zap element moves or even frozen by Blizzard element moves.
Twin Kracko have 7200 HP in Story Mode and Guest Star ???? Star Allies Go!, and 5400 HP in The Ultimate Choice. (Both Kracko share the same health bar; for referece, a Star Bullet does 520 damage.)

In Heroes in Another Dimension, another variant of this boss exists, known as Parallel Twin Kracko. It bears a dark red cloud body with red eyes and spikes, but is largely the same as the original, meant only to segue into the proper EX battle with Parallel Big Kracko.
