Popon

Popon is an enemy appearing in Kirby's Dream Land 3, and a tall towering monster in Kirby: Right Back at Ya!, which is able to regenerate and hurl spherical segments of its body that explode into an acidic goop on contact.
Its appearance in Kirby: Right Back at Ya! was when it disguised itself as Chef Shiitake, where it took the guise of Chef Kawasaki's teacher and tried to eat Kirby. After Kawasaki foiled this plot, however, Popon removed its guise and attacked.
==Physical Appearance==
Popon is a towering monster that is made up of light green balls, all of them merged upright in a row. It can hurl these globs, and the moment a glob leaves its body, another is formed. It has no mouth (although it can speak in the anime), but has two googly eye style eyes on its highest segment.
==Trivia==
*Popon is one of the few monsters that can talk in Kirby: Right Back at Ya!.
*Popon is one of the only monsters in Kirby: Right Back at Ya! to not explode after defeat, along with Kung Fu Lee, Doctor Moro, and Honker Stomper.
*Ironically when the actual Chef Shiitake came to Cappy Town, he was at first mistaken for Popon, and was assaulted. It was eventually discovered that he was the real Chef Shiitake, and he was released from the attack.
**Even though Kirby, Tiff, Tuff, and Kawasaki thought Chef Shiitake was Popon the second time Chef Shiitake visited Cappy Town, it should be stated that Popon was fried from the sun, so there would be no way Popon could come back unless there was more than one Popon.
*Popon is the first monster in Kirby: Right Back at Ya! that took the disguise of a famous person, the second being the Broom King (taking the disguise of Rowlin).
*Popon is also the first monster in Kirby: Right Back at Ya! that Kirby defeats by using the sun. The second is Red Viper.
