Games[ ]
Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards [ ]
Ghost Knight first appears in Stage 3 of Pop Star; he always remains stationary, floating in one spot. When Kirby approaches, he jab at him with his lance, though due to the windup before this move, the player has plenty of time to react. Ghost Knight also has strong defensive capabilities. He does not normally use his shield, but whenever Kirby shoots a projectile at him, he will bring up his shield to defend himself. The shield only blocks weak projectiles, such as Kirby's Air Gun or a standard Star Spit; if hit with either a melee attack or a strong projectile, however, the shield will not be able to block the attack. Ghost Knight is also unable to block attacks if he is in the middle of attacking.
When Kirby holds a Ghost Knight above his head, the Ghost Knight will hold up his shield to block enemy projectiles.
Kirby Star Allies [ ]
Ghost Knight makes an appearance as one of the paintings Adeleine can make in Kirby Star Allies . He runs and jabs his lance forward.
Trivia[ ]
- Ghost Knight, Snipper, Sawyer, I3 and Plugg are the only enemies originating in Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards to reappear elsewhere in the series.
- Ghost Knight's rounded body and single eye make him somewhat resemble Zero Two.
- In the artwork shown in the credits, a Ghost Knight appears standing on an I3. This Ghost Knight, however, is colored green with no mouth, and has a gray lance and a yellow-rimmed blue and brown shield.
