'''Rick''' is a friendly and energetic hamster that befriends Kirby. Second only to [[Ribbon]], Rick is arguably the most well known of the helpers Kirby has had over the years. Rick first appeared alongside [[Coo]] and [[Kine]] in ''[[Kirby's Dream Land 2]]''. Whereas Coo and Kine are most helpful in the air and in the water, Rick was best suited for land. The name Rick is also derived from ''riku'', a Japanese word for land. In ''[[Kirby's Dream Land 3]]'', Rick met his match- [[Nago]] the cat. The two were both skilled at trekking the land.

Rick is a round little hamster. He has white fur with small patches of orange on him. The orange patches are most noticeable on his head and on his back. He has little pink feet and a small, pink, button-shaped nose. A real hamster would have pink hands, but Rick does not. Rick is almost twice the size as Kirby, so he can't fit into smaller places and tight passageways. He can also jump from wall to wall and crush enemies with his astounding girth. Like Kirby, Rick can inhale enemies (This was later changed to stuffing the enemy into his mouth). However, Rick is unable to harness the power to hold his breath to float like Kirby. Rick can be used to jump on walls.

Rick is a friendly and energetic hamster that befriends Kirby. Second only to Ribbon, Rick is arguably the most well known of the helpers Kirby has had over the years. Rick first appeared alongside Coo and Kine in Kirby's Dream Land 2. Whereas Coo and Kine are most helpful in the air and in the water, Rick was best suited for land. The name Rick is also derived from riku, a Japanese word for land. In Kirby's Dream Land 3, Rick met his match- Nago the cat. The two were both skilled at trekking the land. Nowadays, Rick has simply been reduced to small cameos. He appeared with Coo and Kine in Kirby's Star Stacker, and in a statue form in Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards, Kirby Super Star Ultra and Kirby's Return to Dream Land as a random result of the Stone copy ability. Rick also appeared as a collectible Trophy in Super Smash Bros. Melee. He also appeared in the continue screen of Kirby Mass Attack's Kirby Master, based on the game over screen of Kirby's Dream Land 2.
