Guide Note:

King Dedede, Kirby's archenemy from the series of the same name, is a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Brawl for the Wii. He is one of the largest characters in the game, but most of his offense revolves around throwing Waddle Dees and spineys, and using the using mallet. He can swallow opponents like Kirby, but he can only spit them out. In throwing Waddle Dees, sometimes he'll throw one that can emit electricity. There are other times when he'll throw a spiny instead of a Waddle Dee. Many "Super Smash Bros." fans believe King Dedede is one of the best characters in the game.
