'''Gordo''' ({{ja|ゴルドー|Gorudō}}, ''Gordo'') is a regular enemy in the {{uv|Kirby}} series.
'''Gordo''' is a regular enemy in the [[Kirby (universe)|''Kirby'' series]] and is notorious for being impervious (usually) to attack. Despite what the Gordo trophy in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' says, they have indeed been known to move, either back and forth along a set line, bouncing on the ground, or orbiting a platform.
 
==Origin==
[[File:DL-Gordo.png|left|thumb|A Gordo as it appears in ''Kirby's Dream Land''.]]
Gordos debuted in ''[[Kirby's Dream Land]]'', and later reappeared in several games. They are completely invincible and act as hazards: some of them remain stationary, while others move in a line or remain adjacent to walls and floors. A variant known as {{s|wikirby|Blado}} exists, originating in ''{{s|wikirby|Kirby: Canvas Curse}}''.

[[File:Gordo toss.jpg|thumb|King Dedede throwing a Gordo in ''Brawl''.]]
Gordos appear in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' as a [[trophy]] and a [[sticker]], and they are also used as projectiles occasionally thrown in [[King Dedede (SSBB)|King Dedede]]'s [[Side Special Move]], [[Waddle Dee Toss]], and his [[Final Smash]], [[Waddle Dee Army]]. The [[Waddle Dee]]/[[Waddle Doo]]/Gordo appears when thrown at a ratio of 35:10:4 (in other words, there is an 8.2% chance of a Gordo appearing). They have powerful [[knockback]] (the greatest of the three) that propels opponents upward. Unlike King Dedede's other minions, a thrown Gordo can be reflected back at the user. A thrown Gordo will bounce once, then disappear the next time it touches the ground.
Gordos can be thrown by {{SSBB|King Dedede}}'s [[side special move]] attack, [[Waddle Dee Toss]], and also appear in his [[Final Smash]], the [[Waddle Dee Army]].
 
The [[Waddle Dee]]/[[Waddle Doo]]/Gordo appears when thrown at a ratio of 35:10:4, which means there is an 8.2% chance of a Gordo appearing. They have very powerful vertical [[knockback]], by far the greatest of the three, and they are capable of reliably KOing any character under 100%, even under 75% if not stale from repeated Waddle Dee Tosses. Unlike King Dedede's other minions, a thrown Gordo can be reflected back at the user. A thrown Gordo will bounce once, then disappear the next time it touches the ground. The Gordo is also unique as it behaves like an aerial attack in terms of [[priority]]: as such, a Gordo can collide with opposing hitboxes but cannot be canceled out. If it does come into contact with a hitbox that's within or above the priority range of the Gordo, the Gordo is not canceled out and it will continue along its natural trajectory while going through the opposing character without harming them. The Gordo is the only projectile in the ''{{b|Super Smash Bros.|series}}'' series to have this characteristic. Gordos that appear in King Dedede's Final Smash go at very high speeds, similar to the Waddle Dees/Doos, but are still less common, only appearing 1/4 of the time.

[[File:Gordo Smash Run.png|thumb|A Gordo in Smash Run.]]
Gordos reappear in ''Super Smash Bros. 4'' as part of {{SSB4|King Dedede}}'s moveset, being the only enemy thrown by his new [[Gordo Throw]].
 
===In [[Smash Run]]===
Gordos also appear as invincible hazards. They either remain stationary or move in a set path, and can also damage enemies.


===Trophy===

The Gordo trophy is exclusive to {{for3ds}}.
===Trophy Description===

==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''==
Gordos appear once more in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'' in {{SSBU|King Dedede}}'s moveset, still thrown by his [[Gordo Throw]]. They can now also be [[Inhale (King Dedede)|inhaled]] by characters like {{SSBU|Kirby}} and Dedede himself.
 
===Spirit===
Gordo also appears as an Advanced-class [[primary spirit]].
 
Gordo's Spirit Battle uses an army of [[Clear]] {{SSBU|King Dedede}} puppet fighters and is fought on the [[Green Greens]] stage. During the battle, the invisible King Dedede fighters favor their side special, Gordo Throw, so that Gordos seem to appear from out of nowhere to attack.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*Despite what the ''Brawl'' trophy description says, Gordos are able to move.
*If a Gordo hits an opponent's shield at the proper angle, it will continuously travel through the air in a straight path without landing or disappearing until it travels off of the screen.
*The [[Subspace Army]] enemy [[Jyk]] is very similar to Gordo, as both are obstacles that are harmful to the players when touched, are indestructible, and are either still or move along a fixed path.
*The [[Subspace Army]] enemy [[Jyk]] is possibly based on a Gordo.
 
*Gordos also appear as enemies in ''[[Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins]]'' for the [[Game Boy]]. It is their only appearance outside of a ''Kirby'' or ''Smash'' game.
{{Smash Run}}
*The name "Gordo" comes from the Spanish and Portuguese word for "fat".
{{Kirby universe}}
*Gordo made his first appearance in the game ''[[Kirby's Dream Land]]'', in which Gordo appeared in every level other than [[Green Greens]].
*In Spain, Gordo is also known as "Veyron" because it's the nickname of a spanish smasher who pops out many Gordos.
