| “ | Pull on everything you see hanging down in that first stage. I'm sure you'll pull down exactly what we're looking for. | ” | — Daroach, referring to the Jerkweeds |
Jerkweed is a commondevice found inKirby Mass Attack that resembles a green curly vine. Jerkweed is often found hanging from ceilings or attached to other objects. The player can tossKirbys onto these to pull them down. When pulled, Jerkweeds often release fruit, and the Kirbys that pull it can destroy anymetal blocks below as they fall. Certain Jerkweeds may revealkeys,Medals or even enemies instead when pulled. Some Jerkweeds swap places with harmful thorny vines while others move along a path, making it possible to destroy metal blocks in different locations. Jerkweeds can also concealMedals or enemies such asSnoozroot.
