Full Name Punc
Debut Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards (2000)
Ability Needle
Category Regular Enemy
Punc (Dango in Japan) is an enemy in Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards that looks a lot like a Togezo with orange shoes and a green shell with just three yellow spines running down its back. Punc attacks much like the Togezo in Kirby's Adventure, occasionally curling himself into a ball and rolling around. He gives the Needle ability and is one of the first few enemies Kirby encounters in the game, the others being N-Z and Bobo.

[edit] Trivia

  • His English name is derived from 'Punk' (because his spikes resemble a mohawk hairstyle) but spelled with a C (as in puncture)
  • In Kirby 64 his Enemy Card is number 39
