Rick is the first one that I created in my series of Kirby and friends. Rick is one of the first friend Kirby had along with Coo and Kine. You will find this cute hamster in Kirby's Dream Land 2 (where he did his first appearance), Kirby's Dream Land 3, and Kirby Star Allies. You can play him in combo with Kirby and, as a team, they use as attack : fire breath, ball rock, boomerang Kirby, etc.
It was important to me (or maybe my OCD) that I begin with the first Kirby friends and then go video game by video game. I have made a list to which order they all go because, you know, THERE ARE A LOT. So here you go ! ENJOY this easy to follow pattern of Rick the hamster !
