Degout[Japanese title] is anenemy that debuted inKirby's Return to Dream Land. It can be considered cousins with theScarfy and theMumbies, but is distinct from them in its robotic appearance and high HP.

Game appearances[edit]

Kirby's Return to Dream Land /Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe[edit]

A Hunter Degout in pursuit.

Degout is found within theEgg Engines andDangerous Dinner levels inHalcandra and in stages inPopstar onExtra Mode. It looks very similar to Mumbies, though it bears a robotic shell rather than bandages. It cannot be inhaled. There are two types of Degout. The standard Degout has a gray coloration, and will either remain passive until attacked, or attempt to pursue Kirby while his back is turned, much like a Boo from theMario games. The second type has a red coloration, and is known as aHunter Degout, which attacks any character holding aKey, similar to aHunter Scarfy.

InKirby's Return to Dream Land andKirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe, Degout can be found in the following levels and stages:

Kirby's Dream Collection Special Edition[edit]

Degouts appear in theFighter Combat Chamber, being notable in their highhealth. To defeat them more easily, Kirby will have to knock them into fiery walls.

Kirby: Triple Deluxe[edit]

Degout appears briefly inKirby: Triple Deluxe and bears a slightly brighter metallic shell and light yellow eyes as opposed to the old orange ones. Unlike in previous appearances, Degout is never passive, and will always attempt to pursue Kirby or King Dedede. While Hunter Scarfy does appear in this game, Hunter Degout does not, which may be the reason why Degouts are more aggressive than their appearance inKirby's Return to Dream Land.

Degout is only located inEndless Explosions - Stage 4 andEndless Explosions - Stage 5.

Kirby: Planet Robobot[edit]

Degout appears late into the game, only appearing inRhythm Route - Stage 3 andRhythm Route - Stage 7 EX. It bears its yellow eye fromKirby: Triple Deluxe, but is generally more passive, like itsKirby's Return to Dream Land incarnation.
