Big Gordo is a large version of Gordo that appears as an enemy in the Kirby series, debuting in Kirby Mass Attack.

Games

Kirby Mass Attack

Big Gordo's behavior and role differs from stage to stage.

In Stage 5 of Sandy Canyon, Big Gordos float through the air and appear as obstacles. The Kirbys have to avoid letting the balloon ride touch them as they will pop one balloon from the total number of balloons used to keep the ride floating. If all the balloons are popped, it will result in an automatic game over.

In Stage 3 of Dedede Resort, Big Gordos, appear as obstacles once again. They are littered everywhere in the sea and must be avoided. Each time the star ride hits one, a Kirby will get instantly KO'd and cannot be brought back.

In Stage 5 of Volcano Valley, a Big Gordo will appear while the Kirbys are moving the elevator upwards. They should take care to lower the elevator somewhat when the enemy passes through; this Big Gordo has the potential to KO every Kirby in the elevator is not avoided.

Kirby's Return to Dream Land

While technically just a normal Gordo that's scaled up from his normal size, he is still a Big Gordo nevertheless. Big Gordo only appears in Extra Mode as a replacement for Gordo, though he varies in size -- some are a little bigger than Kirby, while others can be three or four times his size. Some Big Gordos move from side to side or up and down, but not all do. Whispy Woods EX, Mr. Dooter EX, and Magolor Soul use these enemies in some of their attacks. Big Gordo appears in the Sword, Water, and Wing Challenges.

Kirby's Dream Collection: Special Edition

Big Gordo appears in the New Challenge Stages in Kirby's Dream Collection: Special Edition as well. He appears in the Normal Challenge.

Kirby: Triple Deluxe

Big Gordo appears very rarely in this game, taking on his usual role as a huge obstacle. He primarily appears in the Dedede's Drum Dash sub-game (as well as Dedede's Drum Dash Deluxe). Big Gordos are also used as projectiles by Flowery Woods.
