No longer needin’ a monstah to clobbah dat dere Kirbeh, King Dedede has decided to take matters into his own hands.  Despite sharing more than a few traits with Kirby—a fact which Dedede would never admit—the self-proclaimed King wants nothing more than to “get Kirby.” He often tries to rope Meta Knight into his schemes, but this rarely proves successful, as Meta Knight typically has better things to do. Either way, Dedede persistently plugs away, even if Kirby is usually oblivious to their supposed “rivalry.”
