Buboo is a mid-boss that appears in Kirby: Squeak Squad. It is a being concealed inside a barrier of bubbles and floats around shooting bubbles (some of which contain Waddle Dees) at Kirby. After taking enough damage, its barrier will dissipate, revealing its true form: a small, crab-like creature. With its cover blown, Buboo will scurry around hastily on the ground, vigorously throwing out bubbles every which way. Buboo is extremely fast on the ground. When defeated, Kirby can inhale it for the Bubble Copy Ability.
