      from what I understand its less he didnt trust the other baddies but unlike bowser he wasn't fooled by master hands wierd commands, but bowser and DDD are fiercly loyal to master hand. DDD figured out something quickly was up with their leader while bowser didn't. Bowser was angry at DDD for being a traitor to the master hand likely, DDD literally shutting him up and showing him the downed hand is what made bowser realize what ddd already knew

      Dedede's more of a solo guy. He'll only bring other people, like Meta Knight, into his plan if its necessary, and he has his loyal army of Waddle Dees at his disposal to do more of the leg work.
      If anything, Dedede deserves to be titled as a king! He's always willing to do what he thinks is best for his people, even willing to sacrifice himself if it is for the greater good.

He was one of many rulers in the land, though one of the smartest which his brooches proved, being turned into a trophy would be an issue, and he had to do it in secret.

    Dedede is badass in Triple Deluxe and Forgotten Land. In Triple Deluxe, he saves Kirby from getting squeezed to death by Sectonia's vines by -clobbering- smashing him out of the vines, then throws Kirby at the Miracle Seed Taranza throws at him. In Forgotten Land, right before the Forgo Dedede fight, he's even seen trying to fight the evil force controlling him, showing that he's had enough of being easily possessed all the time. After the fight, when one Waddle trips, Dedede saves him from the Beast Pack by throwing in him the elevator (even though he had literally enough time to just grab him and rush to the elevator), then does a last stand against them.

    • @giorgioantonaci7097
      @giorgioantonaci7097 2 года назад +77

    For all the people who are confused as to why dedede is considered a villain, in the old spin off games (even if they might not be canon) in dream course dedede steals all the stars out of the sky, and in super star stacker dedede shoots Mr star out of the sky for a "prank", even in more recent spin offs like battle royale dedede continually cheats at his own rigged competition even to go as far as taking kirby back stage to heat him with a giant robot.
    Over all dedede has had a reception arc and it even says in his guest star description that he wants to clean up his image, but dedede was always intended to be a greedy lazy selfish king, but dedede has been doing self improvement ever since adventure.

    King Dedede and Meta Knight are not villains, not anymore. King Dedede was genuinely evil in Dream Land and Revenge of the King, but after his defeat in Revenge of the King, he realized he was never going to beat Kirby. He became an Anti-Hero starting with Kirby 64 and is now a friend to Kirby, although the two still have a friendly rivalry. And outside of trying to take over Dream Land in Meta Knight's Revenge, Meta Knight has firmly been an Anti-Hero, who only fights Kirby to train him and always gives him a fair chance by giving him a sword. The one time he didn't give Kirby a sword in Squeak Squad was because he had to make sure Kirby didn't open the chest that contained Dark Nebula. While they were evil in some early games, King Dedede and Meta Knight have been Anti-Heroes (Sometimes with less of an emphasis on the Anti part) and friends of Kirby who are firmly on the side ever since Kirby 64 and Amazing Mirror respectively.

    I think Forgotten Land is where Dedede was at his most heroic.
    He didn't hesitate to stay behind to throw a Waddle Dee into the elevator while Kirby tried to hold the door open, and fight off the Beast Pack as best as he can.
    This is one of many moments that make me proud to say that, while he was selfish and whatnot, Dedede was never a "villain", and he really does care about his subject as well as Planet Popstar and even Kirby! Long story short, he truly deserves his title of King.
    I also think Amazing Mirror was where Meta Knight was at his most heroic too.

      But this wasn't the same as Magolor and Sectonia.
      Dedede knew these beings would have to be held off to keep the waddle dees safe and escape, and he basically said "yeah I trust you to keep them safe"
