This guy is kind of a big deal. He's the solid-gold leader of the Dethskullk gang. Next time you get trapped in a pirate ship, you're probably gonna need to get the key from this guy. Good luck with that.
— Figurine description ofDethskullk King fromKirby and the Rainbow Curse

Dethskullk King is an enemy which made his first appearance inKirby and the Rainbow Curse. Like hisnormal counterparts, he floats around erratically, and upon spottingKirby, slowly chases after him. The Dethskullk King also carries akey around his neck. Touching the Dethskullk King will instantly K.O. Kirby orWaddle Dee, regardless of how much health they had at the time, so he should generally be avoided. The only way to defeat him is through the use of anInvincible Candy, thereby scoring 500 points (but noPoint Stars), but also allowing Kirby to collect his key.

There is only one Dethskullk King in the entire game, appearing near the end of the stageThe Haunted Ship.
