Games[]
Kirby: Planet Robobot[]
Wester first appears in Stage 1 of Gigabyte Grounds and reappears in many stages thereafter. He walks back and forth across the ground, occasionally stopping to attack if Kirby draws near. He either spins his whip around before cracking it forward or leaps into the air, performing a Whip Tornado.
Wester can jump from a background plane to the foreground plane using Whip Tornado, but cannot return to the previous plane using this technique.
Kirby Star Allies[]
Wester reappears in Kirby Star Allies as an enemy. He also becomes a friend for the Whip ability.
Etymology[]
Wester's name is a shortened form of the word western, a reference to the enemy's design.
