*English marketing material for ''Kirby's Dream Land 2'' refers to the Animal Friends in that game as "Rick the hamster", "Kine the fish", and "Coo the owl". However, | *English marketing material for ''Kirby's Dream Land 2'' refers to the Animal Friends in that game as "Rick the hamster", "Kine the fish", and "Coo the owl". However, Japanese material has suggested from the beginning that they are not actual animals, and only resemble them in likeness. Later English material would also adopt this stance, which notably resulted in the Nintendo Switch Online description for ''Kirby's Dream Land 2'' being altered to refer to them as "Rick, Kine, and Coo, who look like a hamster, a fish, and an owl, respectively." | ||
