Rocky is an enemy that appears in nearly every game in the series. He wields the stake-pounding copy ability Stone. Rockys are creatures who resemble blocks of stone with two eyes and two legs. Rockys are very slow. There behavior is simple: they will try to smash Kirby. This will happen if Rocky stood on platforms above Kirby, and if he is underneath Rocky. If Kirby is near one but not underneath one, Rocky will leap towards and onto Kirby.

Kirby's Adventure

This was the first appearance of Rocky. Rocky resembles a large rock, light brown in color, with two eyes and small legs. He will try to crush Kirby the same way Kirby can crush enemies with the Stone ability: falling on him. Like Kirby, he closes his eyes tightly when attacking or "crouching". He is slightly smaller than Kirby in Stone form.

Kirby's Dreamland 2

Rocky has a more rounded shape in this game. He can be seen rolling down slopes.

Kirby Super Star and Kirby Super Star Ultra

Rocky has the same behavior as in Kirby's Adventure. He now has a blue cord of fabric twisted around his head.

Rocky is also the helper for the Stone ability. He can do anything Stone Kirby can.

In Super Star Ultra, they are the same. A blue Rocky is playable in Helper to Hero. Rocky appears in part of the blooper reel. When Kirby is about to break through the barrier of rocks blocking the exit at the end of the Great Cave Offensive using his Warp Star, a large Rocky is sitting on the barrier. Kirby tries to smash it, but fails and falls into the hole again.

Kirby: Nightmare in Dreamland

Rocky is the same as in the original. However, he gets the blue cord of fabric from Kirby Super Star.

Kirby and the Amazing Mirror

No changes in behavior have occurred.
