Kirby's Dream Land 3

Boten is only found in the desert. It sits on top of cacti until Kirby draws near. When he passes underfoot, it drops down at him in attempts of pricking him with its large spikes. It can be taken out on top of the cactus before it reveals itself.

When swallowed, it gives the Needle copy ability.
