The Maimaigon is the main antagonist of the Kirby: Right Back at Ya! episode "Shell-Shocked. He is an enormous and predatory Demon Beast who was created on accident when King Dedede's assistant, Escargoon, lost his prized shell and looked for a new one.
Physical Appearance[]
Though his concealed form gives him glowing green eyes that appear to be inside his shell, the Maimaigon does not in fact appear to have any while his head is exposed. In general features, he resembles Escargoon himself somewhat, but has grown to an enormous size. In terms of other features, he appears to have pointed eyestalks as well as razor sharp teeth and a massive heavy tongue in his mouth. His substantially large shell is overall a platinum/silver tone with gold side plates featuring red centers. His shell also has horns that generate and launch powerful electrical charges.
Biography[]
After his shell was busted in the episode Escargoon's Nudity, King Dedede's loyal assistant Escargoon was left desperate to get some help. Although Kirby went out of his way to get a Turban shell, much to Escargoon's delight, events unfortunately had a less pleasant idea in mind. Following the Nightmare Enterprises company's Customer Service proceeding to send over a harder shell through his teleporter, the shell itself (especially given the unsavory lore surrounding its place of origin) of course proved to have dark lore of its own. Upon donning the shell, Escargoon learned the hard way when it grew on him and took over his body, revealing to have itself been possessed by the beast intending to use him as a vessel.
Upon completing transformation, the Maimaigon immediately proceeded to attack everyone who was present in the room. After a chaotic scuffle between sides, events further turned for the worse when Kirby found himself overpowered by the beast. Gaining the upper hand, the Maimaigon quickly wrapped up Kirby in his enormous tongue intending to eat him, threatening anyone who dare interfere with his electrical horns. As hopeless as the odds seemed, Kirby managed to escape the beast and use his inhale to grab King Dedede's hammer to become Hammer Kirby. Kirby then used the Hammer Throw technique at full force to bust the open the shell in the midst of his one last attempt to kill Kirby using his Mai Mai Laser. Escargoon reverted to normal and ge his old shell (which Tiff Ebrum had fixed beforehand.
