Honker Stomper

Honker Stomper (Noseman in Japan) is a Demon Beast ordered from Nightmare Enterprises by Dedede in the Kirby: Right Back At Ya! episode The Thing About The Ring, an episode that was originally banned in America, the reason being Honker Stomper´s disgusting appereance and his ability to inhale similiar to Kirby, but the episode was eventually aired.

King Dedede ordered him because he wanted to find Lady Like and Sir Ebrum´s wedding ring (which he thought to be a Cappy Town cultural artifact). Honker Stomper is a Demon Beast that has the ability to sniff out jewels. Dedede orders him to go find the ring from Cappy Town, but when he returned, Dedede was angry because there where so many jewels that he could not find the wedding ring, so he orders Escargoon to find it. Just then, Tiff, Tuff, and Kirby arrive in Dedede´s throne room and order him to return the jewels, but Dedede orders Honker Stomper to inhale again. Because both Kirby and Honker Stomper´s inhaling power is so strong, it turns into an "inhale-o-war" between the nosy (quite literally) Demon Beast and Kirby. But Tuff then throws a shaker of pepper, which gets into Honker Stomper´s breath, and he sneezes out all of the jewels. King Dedede, in a fit of rage, hits Honker Stomper with his hammer, sending him flying out of the window and possibly destroying him.

Physical appereance
Honker Stomper looks like a walking gray nose who wears a purple detective cap. He has sunken in eyes.
