He has appeared in one form or another in nearly every game in the series, and he even stars in his own side game, Dedede's Drum Dash Deluxe.

He is often portrayed as a comic foil to Kirby, especially in spin-off titles, which makes him comparable to Bowser from the Mario franchise, though King Dedede is not nearly as villainous. Having debuted in the series' first installment, Kirby's Dream Land, King Dedede is arguably the most recognizable character from the Kirby series behind the pink hero himself, having appeared in every game except Kirby & The Amazing Mirror and Team Kirby Clash Deluxe, though not all of those appearances are major roles. King Dedede lives in a castle atop a mountain with a retinue of Waddle Dees acting as his servants. Because of this, he is considered a protagonist, despite his greediness and egotism. Though he often engages in trouble-making, mostly involving stealing other people's food, he has performed noble deeds as well, such as trying to seal away Nightmare, helping Kirby battle Queen Sectonia, and accompanying Kirby in several of his adventures.

He is a recurring character who serves as Kirby's 'arch frenemy' and is usually fought as a boss. King Dedede ( King DeDeDe in some older games sometimes shortened to Dedede) is a portly, blue, penguin-like creature who wields a hammer and proclaims himself king of Dream Land.
