King Dedede throwing a Gordo in SSBB.

Gordo is a regular enemy in the Kirby universe and is notorious for being impervious to attack. They are used as projectiles occasionally thrown in King Dedede's Side Special Move, Waddle Dee Toss, and also occasionally appear during his Final Smash, Waddle Dee Army. The Waddle Dee/Waddle Doo/Gordo appears when thrown at a ratio of 35:10:4, with a Gordo having an 8.2% chance of appearing. They have powerful knockback (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. Gordo also appears as a sticker.

Trophy Description

A creature that sits in one place and doesn't even try to move. They won't even budge if Kirby tries to inhale them--they're the definitive obstacle. In addition, they're covered in spikes so they damage whoever touches them. They're found stopped in groups, blocking narrow passageways, etc. Nothing's harder to get by than an encampament of Gordos.
