Etymology
Dethskullk's name is derived from the words death, referencing its ability to KO Kirby upon contact, skull, referencing its appearance, and skulk, referencing its behavior.
Trivia
- Dethskullk King's behavior is similar to that of Mumbies and some Scarfys and Degouts, as the three enemies don't attack if the player is looking at them.
