Togezo

Togezos, also named Spinies, appear as an enemy in a few Kirby games from the 1990s. They are presumably based on the Spinies from the Mario franchise. To fit with the series' visual style, Spinies were stylized to have an obscured head and two feet, but their coloration still varies between games. If Kirby inhales a Spiny, he receives the Needle Copy Ability.

Kirby's Adventure
In Kirby's Adventure, Spinies are first encountered in the fourth stage of Vegetable Valley. Their sprite color varies depending on which location they are in. A Spiny occasionally curls up in a ball, making it resemble a Spiny Egg, and rolls quickly along the ground to try and damage Kirby with its spiked shell.

In the Game Boy Advance remake, Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land, Spinies were replaced by Needlous. Additionally, an enemy very similar to the Kirby's Adventure Spiny, called Punc, appears in Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards.

Kirby's Dream Course
In Kirby's Dream Course, Spinies return as enemies. Their shell was changed with red with yellow spikes, closer to their usual appearance within the Mario franchise, although they have white eyes and a dark blue body. Unlike Kirby's Adventure, Spinies do not move around and therefore do not perform their rolling attack. Kirby can still gain the Needle ability from a Spiny, this time by simply bumping into one.

Kirby's Dream Land 3
In Kirby's Dream Land 3, they are known by their Japanese name, Togezo, whereas Japanese materials of earlier Kirby games refer to them as Spiny. Togezo have a similar appearance as in Kirby's Dream Course but have a shadow-colored body and yellow eyes (depicted as red in their artwork). Instead of performing a rolling attack, Togezo withdraw and extend their spikes whenever Kirby is in proximity, similar to a Spikey from Kirby's Dream Land 2.
