~ Coily Rattler's pause screen description in Kirby Triple Deluxe. |
Coily Rattler is one of the seven main bosses in Kirby: Triple Deluxe. It is fought within the temple that is found within World 4: Wild World.
The Coily Rattler was once worshiped by the People of the Sky as a deity. However, it became a virus upon the world of Floralia, so its former worshipers abandoned it for their safety.
Appearance[]
The Coily Rattler is a large snake with a body made up of golden round and hexagonal segments. Its head is orange, with bright yellow eyes and a large red crest resembling angry eyebrows, with it also a large green orb nested in the top of its head and dark blue stripes on the round segments of its body. As Coily Rattler DX, its now silver with a gray head, the blue stripes are now gold, the orb in its head is blue, and the red crest now has small horns curving back to the sides of the orb. As a statue, it looks almost identical to its normal form, though obviously made of stone.
The Holo Defense API creates a transparent green version of the Coily Rattler with a blue head.
Biography[]
Kirby: Triple Deluxe[]
The Coily Rattler is fought within the temple of World 4: Wild World. When it's introduced, it is first seen trapped within the stone statue. Kirby chases Taranza into the temple that houses the place Coily Rattler lies in, but Taranza uses his magic to break the stone seal. The Coily Rattler is awakened from its rest assumes that Kirby disturbed it. Kirby now has no choice but to fight the Floralians' former god before he can continue.
The Coily Rattler can attack with fire breath. It can also roll into a wheel to crush Kirby's body underneath it. Another attack has the Coily Rattler split itself into twelve pieces. Kirby now has to keep on his toes as the Coily Rattler tries to crush him underneath itself. The Coily Rattler's head is the last piece, enabling the pink puff to damage it.
Once it loses its stamina, the Coily Rattler falls off the platform and tries to climb up the central pillar of the room. Its attempts are futile, and its body explodes, but its head ejects from the body and charges at the platform, only to explode, killing it.
Kirby: Planet Robobot[]
