| “ | Forgo Dedede was formed when Leongar gave the already-controlled king a mask to further cloud his mind. He was then tasked with guarding the only entrance to Lab Discovera. This phantom copy, based on memories of his terrifying turn, is somehow even stronger and more dangerous than the original! | ” | — Figure description from Kirby and the Forgotten Land |
Phantom Forgo Dedede, titled Illusory Primal Nemesis, is a more powerful illusory form of Forgo Dedede which appears as the boss of Forgo Zone in Kirby and the Forgotten Land, and can also be fought in The Ultimate Cup Z in the Colosseum. Phantom Forgo Dedede looks and fights largely the same as its real counterpart, but has a different color scheme, now sporting teal skin with a purple coat with cyan fluff and magenta feathers and belt, and eyes that match those of Fecto Forgo in its "Invasive Species" form. The color of its mask also matches this general color scheme.
Attacks[edit]
Phantom Forgo Dedede has all of the same attacks as its normal counterpart, but it attacks significantly faster and some of its attacks have new properties. It also has a few new attacks, and has more health than Forgo Dedede, having 960 HP in phase 1 and 1,080 HP in phase 2 when fought in Forgo Zone and 640 HP in phase 1 and 720 HP in phase 2 when fought at the Colosseum. It takes 0.2X damage during phase transitions and transitions to the second phase once its first phase health bar hits 12 HP in Forgo Zone or 8 HP in the Colosseum.[1] Unlike in the main game, many of Phantom Forgo Dedede's attacks cause the arena to tilt or partially sink into the lava.
The following lists all of Phantom Forgo Dedede's attacks (attack names are from the Kirby and the Forgotten Land Perfect Support Guide). Attacks in italics are only used in the second phase.

Phantom Forgo Dedede begins inhaling, trying to draw Kirby in. If Kirby is captured, he will take heavy damage before being spat out again. If Kirby doesn't get sucked up, Phantom Forgo Dedede is left panting for several seconds. | |||
