King Dedede, also titled as His Royal Nemesis in Kirby Star Allies, and written as King DeDeDe, King De De De, or King DDD (in certain older games), is the main antagonist of the Kirby franchise. He is Kirby's arch-nemesis in Nintendo and HAL Laboratory's long-running Kirby video game series. He (or something in his likeness) has appeared in every game in the series except Kirby & The Amazing Mirror and Kirby & The Rainbow Curse. As such, he is the most recurring major character of the series besides Kirby and Waddle Dee. Due to his portrayal in various games as a villain, King Dedede is the main antagonist of the series.
He is the greedy self-proclaimed king of Dream Land, which is located on the quaint Planet Popstar. Due to an ambiguous description of the geography of Planet Popstar, it is never made entirely clear how much of the planet King Dedede assumes leadership of, though he seems to have castles and fortresses all across the planet. Even so, he seems to perform no administrative functions, and for the most part, the planet seems to ignore any edicts that are issued by him.
He joined Team Nefarious to get even with the villain league for rejecting his request to join, and to see what worlds are beyond his to oppressed.
Trivia
- King Dedede and Escargoon will team up with Bowser and his villains in Pooh's Adventures Armada: Hunt for the Chaos Emeralds.
