Parasol (enemy)

''This article is about the enemy named Parasol. For the article about the Copy Ability, see Parasol.''

Parasol is an enemy in the Kirby games.

It is just what its name suggests it to be- a sentient parasol. It is near identical to the one Parasol Kirby wields, but has different powers. It, like the enemy Drifter, has strange, otherworldly powers and will sometimes menacingly chase Kirby once it is released by an enemy.

Kirby's Dream Land
Parasols are released from Waddle Dee and Waddle Doo who are killed while still holding onto them. They also hold up some Shotzo in the air. After they are separated from their slain partner, they drift up to the sky.

In Extra Game, the Parasols flash being released. Rather than gracefully floating away, they pursue Kirby, much like Scarfy.

Kirby's Adventure and Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land
Parasols can be found, once again, attached to Waddle Doos, Waddle Dees, and Shotzos. When these enemies are defeated, they either float away or chase Kirby. The ones that chase Kirby will float after Kirby homing in on his position; if avoided for long enough they will explode on their own.

When attached to a Shotzo, they will release it upon landing or being hit. Of course, Parasol grants the Parasol ability to Kirby.

Parasols also appear as one of Paint Roller's sketches. These always chase Kirby.

Other Games
Parasol almost always appears along with the Parasol ability, which it grants in each of its appearances. In some games, like Kirby Squeak Squad, parasols never chase Kirby under any circumstances.

In Super Smash Bros.
The Parasol appears as an item in the Super Smash Bros series, which can be used to bludgeon opponents with and float to safety, as if the player was using the Parasol ability. Strangely, Princess Peach will use this Parasol instead of her own to perform her Peach Parasol Move. Like most other Smash Bros. Items, it had a Trophy.
