Apple



"If you grab all of those apples, you'll get some kind of reward."

- Daroach

An apple is a round red fruit that grows in Dream Land and is utilized by various enemies such as Poppy Bros. Jr. and bosses like Whispy Woods. It is even represented in the Super Smash Bros. series as a trophy and item.

General Information
Poppy Bros. Jr. and Perot roll on them to try to attack Kirby. Inhaling the foe makes it lose the apple. Whispy Woods grows them and uses them to attack Kirby by making them fall and bounce around towards Kirby. If Kirby has no copied abilities, he can inhale the apples and use them as projectiles against Whispy Woods. In Kirby Super Star Ultra's Revenge of the King sub-game, Whispy's Revenge shoots out poison apples that hurt Kirby if swallowed. The poison apples are shown as being purple colored.

In Kirby & The Amazing Mirror, Wiz creates an apple that alternates its color between red and purple. It gives the Sleep ability.

In Kirby Mass Attack, apples are one of the fruits that can be eaten. There are also bonus green apples featured alongside them.

At the beginning of Kirby and the Rainbow Curse, Kirby prepares to eat an apple before the entirety of Planet Popstar is drained of color by Claycia. When Kirby regains his color, he is unable to eat the now colorless fruit. Apples are mentioned throughout the game, even appearing as Kirby's reward for saving his planet in the conclusion.

In Team Kirby Clash Deluxe, Team Kirby uses items called Gem Apples as a type of currency. They can be traded to Magolor at the Shoppe for items, spent to unlock Quests and replenish vigor, exchanged to add time to the timer, and other things.

In the Super Smash Bros. series
In Super Smash Bros. Melee and Super Smash Bros. Brawl, apples appear as items dropped by Whispy Woods at the Green Greens stage. They have up to three effects; they can either be eaten to regain health, thrown to damage other competitors, or explode upon landing.

Apples also appear as trophies in Super Smash Bros. Brawl.

In Kirby: Right Back At Ya!
Whispy uses apples to trap his enemies, which was first seen in Beware: Whispy Woods!. Kirby enjoys eating them, but they can also damage him when used as weapons by enemies like Phan Phan or Whispy Woods.

Related Quotes
"Fruit that falls from above when you're battling Whispy Woods. Kirby can suck them up and spit them out as useful projectile weapons. They're nice to have around when you don't have any Copy Abilities, but they do damage when they hit you, so they can be a bother too. They offer no ability when swallowed. These apples are not produced by Whispy Woods."
