Although they look like smiling balls, don't let their appearance fool you. Ticks shoot a needle-like projection out of the tops of their heads whenever Kirby comes close. Use caution when flying over them, and always attack them from their level rather than from above.

They give the Needle ability when inhaled.

Some Ticks in Kirby: Triple Deluxe will hop towards Kirby in their cute forms.
