| “ | N-Zs walk through the worlds, neither attacking nor avoiding Kirby. You can easily avoid N-Zs by leaping over them.” |

N-Z is an enemy in the Kirby series, debuting in Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards. They grant no Copy Ability when inhaled.
Physical Appearance
N-Z is a small spherical creature with a dark gray body and has two large shiny black eyes. It has pointy cat-like ears, and white feet.
Games
Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards
N-Zs make their only appearance in this game, where they replace Waddle Dees as the most common enemy in the game, since the only Waddle Dee that appears in it is one of Kirby's friends. They are just as simple to defeat as Waddle Dees are in other games. A bigger version of N-Z can be found on the first stage of Pop Star as part of a Room Guarder two rooms before the fight with a Dark Matter-possessed Waddle Dee. The large N-Z stands still, doing nothing for the entirety of the fight.
N-Zs can only be found on Popstar, Ripple Star, and, strangely enough, Dark Star. N-Zs can be seen dropping from Dark Matter in Stage 3 of Ripple Star. They are the only enemies that can be found on Dark Star other than the final boss, 0². Because of this, it has been suggested that N-Zs (or at least, these particular ones) are created by Dark Matter or have some other strong affiliation with it.
Trivia
- These enemies take the place of Waddle Dees in Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards because the Waddle Dee in the game is Kirby's friend. This is not the case in Kirby's Return to Dream Land and Kirby: Triple Deluxe, however; because the friendly Waddle Dee in those games is differentiated by a bandana, ordinary Waddle Dees still serve as common enemies.
- However, a similar case would occur in Kirby and the Rainbow Curse, where the common enemy that functions similarly to Waddle Dee is Cotta.
- Kirby Mass Attack also does something similar, while Waddle Dees do appear as enemies in this game, Beanbons take on the role as the common enemy in the game.
- While not confirm, N-Z may be related to Dark Matter in a way because N-Z’s are the only enemy (aside ZeroTwo) that can be found on Dark Star.
