Waddle Dee Army

King Dedede's Waddle Dees swarm the Skyworld stage.

Waddle Dee Army is King Dedede's Final Smash in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. He whistles to summon a large crowd of Waddle Dees that run across the screen, much faster than the Waddle Dees King Dedede normally throws in Waddle Dee Toss. Waddle Doos are also included in the crowd. The most dangerous part of this Final Smash is the fact that Gordos are also among the crowd. During the Final Smash, King Dedede is immobile as he dances, and is also invincible. The Waddle Dee Army sweeps enemy players off the screen. Each Waddle Dee does 4% damage and has a low vertical knockback, which, along with the Waddle Doos' attacks and Gordos, can rack up to high amounts of damage. Most KOs dealt with this Final Smash usually results from the opponents not being able to recover very far from the stage, as the Waddle Dees and Waddle Doos are constantly attacking the enemy while he/she is off the stage, pushing him/her away from the stage while making him/her lose all jumps and their third jumps in the attempt to recover back. Also, characters will get slowly pulled towards King Dedede during his Final Smash, but only if they are on the ground.

Origin

Like the Waddle Dee Toss, the Waddle Dee Army is an attack crafted specifically for Brawl, although King Dedede does command a large army of the creatures in the Kirby games. They feature prominently in many games, and Dedede would occasionally summon some Waddle Dees to assist him in Kirby: Squeak Squad.

Trophy Description

King Dedede's Final Smash. He whistles, and an army of Gordos, Waddle Dees, and Waddle Doos rain down and rampage, pummeling all in their way. After a bit, they'll pack it in and hit the road. Any left can be forcibly removed. They are fast and numerous, which makes it difficult to get through their ranks without taking any damage.
