[edit] Physical Appearence

Grizzos are large bear-like enemies that wear headbands. They normally have yellow fur (though in the artwork for Kirby's Dream Land gives them blue fur and greatly simplifies their design) and brown stripes on their back that resemble the Pokémon mascot Pikachu. Their bodies are stocky and twice as large as most other regular enemies.

[edit] Games

[edit] Kirby's Dream Land

Grizzo appear in the game's first stage Green Greens where they hop about merrily. Though they appear larger than the other enemies they can still be easily inhaled just like any other enemy. However, if Grizzo should bump into Kirby two bars of vitality will be lost instead of one.

Sometimes they appear as mounts for Poppy Bros. Jrs. and Kirby can either attack the Grizzo with a star or air puff causing the Poppy Bros. Jr. to jump off, or inhale the Poppy Bros. off of the Grizzo and be left with just the Grizzo. If separated from either of their partners, they will move freely, though in the same direction as before.

[edit] Kirby Super Star and Kirby Super Star Ultra

They also appeared in Kirby Super Star, with the same behavior, though they no longer have riders.

In Kirby Super Star Ultra's Revenge of the King mode, Grizzo is replaced by Galbel, which are tiger-like enemies that can take more hits.
