{{quote|HAH! [[Starfy|You're]] gonna race ME?! You don't even have fins! Fork rocks!|Fork|[[The Legendary Starfy]]}}
'''Fork''' is a small blue fish and a friend of [[Moe]] and [[Starfy]] who often challenges Starfy to mini-games and events. He always has a grumpy look on his face. He is also very arrogant. Once he went on [[The Moe Show]] and he claimed Moe's talk show to be his, frustrating Moe enough to kick Fork out. In the [[Game Boy Advance|GBA]] games he has a [[Fork's brother|a brother]] and they constantly tease Moe by attacking him.

Fork used to be classed as an enemy in the first four games in [[The Legendary Starfy (series)|''The Legendary Starfy'' series]] but he was reclassified as a [[Friends|Friend]] in ''The Legendary Starfy'', presumably because he is an interactable character in that game who plays with [[Starfy]] in the [[Side Quest#No. 2: Race with Fork|Race with Fork]] and [[Side Quest#No. 21: Shuffle Fork|Shuffle Fork]] [[Side Quest]]s and cannot be defeated.

==In ''[[Densetsu no Starfy]]''==
In ''Densetsu no Starfy'', either Fork or his brother is seen at the beginning of [[Coral Coast]], swimming away. Starfy follows him and he goes through the bottom-most door. When Starfy catches up with him, he then goes through another door in a random direction. This leads Starfy to a room where Fork is picking on Moe with his brother. Starfy must defeat both Fork brothers with a Star Spin in order to talk to Moe and advance to the next room.

==In ''[[Densetsu no Starfy 2]]''==
Fork and his brother are seen in one level of [[Yeeha Alpine]] (Stage 7-3). [[Taiblond]] leaves behind a photograph that shows one of the Fork brothers near a wall. Starfy hits the wall with a [[Star Spin]] revealing a door that leads to a room where Fork and his brother are picking on Moe. The older Fork brother asks if the younger brother came to eat Moe, to which the younger brother replies he did. Like in ''Densetsu no Starfy'', Starfy must rescue Moe by defeating both Fork brothers with a Star Spin.

==In ''[[Densetsu no Starfy 3]]''==
Fork can be registered in the [[Toys|Trading Cards]] in [[Crushed Ice Alpine]] (Stage 4-4) as one of the [[Rare Enemies]] only after beating the game.

Unlike ''Densetsu no Starfy'' and ''Densetsu no Starfy 2'', finding Fork and [[Fork's brother|his brother]] in ''Densetsu no Starfy 3'' is optional. They can only be met in a single room of in a room where two of the [[Konbi]] used to be. As usual, Fork and his brother are bullying Moe and Starfy or [[Starly]] has to defeat both of them with his Star Spin to save Moe. To add Fork to the Trading Cards, Starfy or Starly must defeat either one of them and doesn't have to beat both of them. If both of the Fork brothers are defeated and the player exits the Area, they won't appear again.

==In ''[[Densetsu no Starfy 4]]''==
In ''Densetsu no Starfy 4'', Fork appears in the story as an enemy in [[Lobber's Villa]] (Stage 1-2), where Moe asks Starfy to catch him. Fork will run away from [[Starfy]], and Starfy must first block his path in order to stop him in his tracks. If Starfy touches Fork he will lose 3 health points. Starfy must use his [[Star Spin]] to break the chain attached to a large metal ball to corner Fork, and then use his Star Spin to defeat him. Fork appears in the [[Toys|Picture Book]] as entry #008.

==In ''[[The Legendary Starfy]]''==
In the ''[[The Legendary Starfy]]'', Fork appears in two [[Side Quest]]s; "Race with Fork" and "Shuffle Fork".
===Side Quests===
====Race with Fork====
"Race with Fork" (No. 2) is the first Side Quest he appears in, found in [[Gluglug Lagoon]] (Stage 1-3). In this Side Quest, Fork challenges Starfy to a race. Finishing before Fork grants access to [[???? (Areas)|Area Secret 2]] in [[Gluglug Lagoon]].

====Shuffle Fork====
"Shuffle Fork" (No. 22) is the second Side Quest he appears in. It is found in [[S.S. Logwater]] (Stage 7-4). In Shuffle Fork, Starfy must find Fork in a treasure chest 3 times. Accepting the challenge frustrates [[Moe]], who rather prefers that Starfy 'leaves it to him' and takes care of [[Mega Snark]]. There are three treasure chests, two of which do not hold Fork and are meant to catch Starfy out. Choosing the wrong treasure chest causes Starfy to fail the challenge. Each time, the chests will shuffle. If Starfy succeeds, the player gains access to Area Secret 3 in S.S. Logwater.

====Toy description====
"Fork thinks he's Starfy's rival. Don't tell him that there's no contest. No matter how good a swimmer he may be, he can't hope to ever beat Starfy!" (#106)

'''Globerto''' ('''Mapoo'''<ref>''[[The Legendary Starfy]]'' internal [[Stage]] directory filenames</ref> in Japan) is a world traveling map maker who helps [[Starfy]] by taking him to the [[Map (Areas)|Stage's Map]] when he wants to leave an [[Area]]. When entering that Area after leaving with the help of Globerto, Starfy will start from where he left off. He appears many times in the Areas. He usually stays somewhere around the [[Mermaid]]. Some treasure chests contain [[Notes]] from Globerto.

'''Bunston''' ('''Rampa''' in Japan) is a character introduced in ''[[The Legendary Starfy]]'' (known as ''Densetsu no Starfy Taiketsu! [[Mashtooth|Daīru]] Kaizokudan'' in Japan). He is a blue bunny-like creature wearing a red spacesuit with a green helmet, orange jet pack, red eyes and is a prince like Starfy. He first meets [[Starfy]] after having fallen through his roof from [[Planet Bunnera]], his homeland, which was attacked by the Space Pirate [[Mashtooth]].

== Bunston's Powers ==
Although Bunston cannot be controlled alone, in certain rooms in the game he appears with a thought bubble above his head. Inside the thought bubble is a small image of a monster (called "[[Monstar]]"), seal (called "[[Starpedo]]"), ghost (called "[[Starfright]]"), or rooster (called "[[Roostar]]"). These powers are remembered by Bunston through progression in the story as Starfy and others collect the [[Shard]]s to Bunston's ship. Player can keep track of Bunston's remembered powers via the [[Bunston's Collection]] menu. If Starfy touches the thought bubble, he morphs with Bunston to gain the ability pictured. If Bunston has not remembered the power, the ability will not be pictured and the player will not be able to use it. These abilities are all unique: Monstar's ability allows Starfy to breathe fire ([[Spicy Belly]]); Starpedo's ability freezes, then breaks [[Deep Ice]] in arctic regions using a giant icicle ([[Icy Spike]]), making them passable; Roostar's ability provides Starfy to be able to make loud Bugawks that can also be used to use [[Liftwisp]]s and make [[Stangler]]s and [[Lurchin]]s not damaging anymore, making them as temporary platforms, and lay chicken eggs ([[Bugawk]]); Starfright's ability lets Starfy drop "will-o-wisp"s (ghostly fires) around foes, make him disappear for a while, and make him float around ([[Vanish]]).

===Upgrades===
In the last [[???? (levels)|Secret levels]] of certain Stages, there will be extra [[Transforming Stone]]s for the forms, making them more powerful. The power will be later used in that level to highlight its additional features. The upgraded Powers are needed for collecting certain [[Treasure]]s.

*'''Super [[Spicy Belly]]:''' The flames are now bigger. (Found in [[Hotcha Springs]])

*'''Super [[Icy Spike]]:''' The spike is now larger and can be used to go against the fastest currents. (Found in [[Sogwood Forest]])

*'''Super [[Bugawk]]:''' Starfy will flap his wings for a short time if the B button is held in the middle of the air. Additionally, the eggs surrounding Bugawk have hatched into two small chicks. (Found in [[S.S. Logwater]])

*'''Super [[Vanish]]:''' Starfy will disappear for a longer period of time. (Found in [[Planet Bunnera]])

'''''Mashtooth the Pirate''' redirects here. For the Special in [[The Legendary Starfy]]'s [[Stuff]], see [[The Legendary Starfy/Stuff#Specials]].''

'''Mashtooth''' ('''Daīru''' in Japan, possibly '''Daiiru''', but a common, [[:#name origin|possibly false]] romanization is '''Dire'''<ref>[[Nintendo Power]] Volume 244, pp. 73</ref>) is the main villain and final boss of ''[[The Legendary Starfy]]''.

He is the leader of the [[:Category:Daīru Pirate Squad|Daīru Pirate Squad]], who consists of [[The Terrible Trio]] and underlings known as the [[Swabbie]]s; that are divided into four groups, {{Swabbie|Land Swabbie}}s, {{Swabbie|Sky Swabbie}}s, {{Swabbie|Space Swabbie}}s, {{Swabbie|Sea Swabbie}}s.

Mashtooth was eventually defeated by [[Starfy]], with the help of many others. He is a space pirate with a thick sword who attempted to conquer [[Planet Bunnera]] to absorb the powers of its inhabitants, in particular the prince of the [[Bunneran]]s, [[Bunston]], and become the most powerful force in the galaxy. He has two forms when facing him. His second form is like a dragon.

==Personality==

Mashtooth is a power hungry tyrant that thinks power and strength is everything (which he states multiple times). He is shown to be very cruel since he attacked the inhabitants of Bunnera and stole their power just so he could rule the universe. He is shown to be short-tempered and will crush all that defy him. An example of this behavior is when he sent a [[Swabbie]] flying after the Swabbie objected to Mashtooth's plans believing that they weren't nice. He is shown to strike fear into his enemies as well as his minions since The Terrible Trio were scared about calling him and when a Swabbies told him that Bunston was in [[Pufftop]] he begged Mashtooth not to eat him.

==Abilities==

===Mashtooth===
His abilities include:

*Absorbing power - He can absorb the power of others in two ways, firstly by using his nose suction to inhale the person, secondly by eating them. He can cause rocks to come towards Starfy or Starly while using his suction attack.
*Attacking by charging into Starfy or Starly.
*Summoning lightning - He only uses this attack after being hit multiple times. He can create a blue flame around himself and then disappear while summoning lightning. The lightning can strike multiple areas of the room.

===Mega Mashtooth===
Mega Mashtooth has some new abilities, including:

*Summoning lightning - He can summon thicker lightning bolts that are yellow instead of blue.
*Laser beams - When Starfy or Starly deplete all of Mashtooth's health points, he fires a laser beam from his mouth. He uses it to try to push [[The Moon]] at Starfy or Starly, but the player can keep pressing the Y to push it back.
*Asteroids - He can now throw asteroids at Starfy or Starly.
*Flight - He now has wings so he can now fly.
*Extra durability - It takes more hits from Starfy or Starly for Mega Mashtooth to take damage.

==Boss Battle==
{{spoiler}}
===First Form - Mashtooth===
[[File:Mashtooth.jpg|thumb|left|Mashtooth sitting in his chair]]
At first, [[Bunston]] tries to help [[Starfy]] by turning him into his [[Monstar]] transformation, but it ends up with Mashtooth having a forcefield. The player loses the Monstar fight, and then reverts back to the normal Starfy. To defeat him in his first form, the player can keep using [[Star Spin]] or [[Shooting Star]] on him. He attacks by charging. When the player gets his health down to five, he turns temporarily invincible, then disappears and starts to shoot lightning down the screen. The lightning shoots down either left or right, and is difficult to dodge. When the player gets him down to at least three health, he will try to inhale Starfy with his nose and rocks will fly into Starfy. If the player get caught in his nose, the player must keep pressing left and right on the D-pad in order to escape. If he or she doesn't get out in time, Mashtooth will swallow Starfy and the player must try it again. However, the best way to get away from him is to [[dash]]. A [[Star Spin]] can be used to break the rocks.

====[[Toys|Toy]] description====
*"It's Mashtooth himself! Famed for his lightning and charge attacks. Even his nostrils are scary! Um... I think I hear my mollusk calling. Gotta go, bye!" (No. 079)

===Second Form - Mega Mashtooth===
[[File:MashtoothFinal.jpg|thumb|right|Mega Mashtooth]]
''Mega Mashtooth redirects here, for the [[Story]] cartoon, see [[Mega Mashtooth (cartoon)]]

After the defeat of Mashtooth, he will inhale [[Bunston]] and absorb his powers, transforming Mashtooth into the much more powerful '''Mega Mashtooth''' ('''Strongest Daīru''', さいきょうダイール in Japan); who grows huge yellow wings and becomes incredibly large. Mega Mashtooth, later flies off the screen and into space. Starfy, who is assumed to be unconscious remains unable to battle until the encouragement of [[The Terrible Trio]], [[Moe]], Bunston, and others gives Starfy the power to fight Mega Mashtooth.

[[The Power of Friends|The power invoked by Starfy's friends]] is so powerful that a large aura surrounds Starfy, allowing him to fly into space and attack Mega Mashtooth face to face. Mega Mashtooth will shoot even bigger bolts of lightning, however they are easier to dodge than last time. Once Starfy gives him a bit more damage, he'll fly into the background and start to throw meteors at Starfy. Using the Star Spin to deflect them has chance of hitting Mashtooth, doing damage. At even lower health, he'll do both attacks at the same time. Once Starfy defeats him, he will throw [[The Moon|the moon]] of [[Planet Bunnera|Bunnera]] at Starfy. The player must rapidly press Y to deflect it, or slide the Y button using the stylus. He'll throw it again, and this time it's even harder. If the player fails to deflect it, the moon will go into the background and destroy Starfy. Once Starfy deflects the moon again, it slams into Mashtooth, defeating him and then a cutscene ensues. Apparently, Mega Mashtooth and the meteors he throws have a 3D look. {{clr}}

==Trivia==
===Name origin===
*Mashtooth is mostly likely derived from 'mash', as in crushing something, and 'tooth'. In an answer to a message sent to Nintendo of Japan, they confirmed that a major reason why Mashtooth's Japanese name is Daīru (Japanese: ダイール) is because Mashtooth's face resembles that of a crocodile (Japanese: クロコダイル)<ref>"ゲームの名称は色々な理由から総合的につけられていますが、

大きな理由として名づけられました。" ([http://datomatic.no-intro.org/?page=discussion_show&s=28&thread=25 hosted on DAT-o-MATIC])</ref>, hence an official romanization may be based on 'Dile'.

:Various sites have romanized ダイール in the ''The Legendary Starfy'''s Japanese title as "Dire" but this may be 'less correct' because of the lengthened イ, and because of the ル being pronounced as 'ru' or 'l' in ダイール (a better romanization for Dire would be ダイア). 'Dire' is an adjective applied to something that causes fear. In Volume 244 of [[Nintendo Power]] on page 73, in an interview with [[Hitoshi Yamagami]], the Japanese name of the game is subtitled 'Dire Pirate Squad' too, however, it is possible that this was added by the editors and not Hitoshi Yamagami himself. On the [http://www.ic.gc.ca/app/opic-cipo/cpyrghts/dsplySrch.do?lang=eng Canadian Copyrights Database], the Japanese name of Mashtooth (as seen in its romanization of the Japanese name of ''The Legendary Starfy'') is romanized as Daiiru.

'''Moe''' ('''Kyorosuke''' in Japan) is a clam, and [[Starfy]]'s best friend. He is sometimes depicted as being rude, but has good intentions at heart. He lives in the [[Pufftop Palace]] with Starfy and [[Starly]], and shares their palace. He sometimes speaks with slang words and phrases, like "yowza", and "I'm Just Ribbin' Ya, Starf!" too.

In Japanese versions, like his father [[Kyorozou]]; Moe uses the slang term 'ome' (Japanese: オメェ) to refer to others.

It is reported that he is voiced by [[wikipedia:Kappei Yamaguchi|Kappei Yamaguchi]] in Japanese commercials but it is unclear whether Yamaguchi also voiced Moe in the Japanese version of ''[[The Legendary Starfy]]''.

== History ==
===Background===
[[File:Family 5.PNG|thumb|left|130px|Moe and his family's tragic past.]]
During his youth Moe's parents fell out with each other and [[Moe's mother]] was forced out of her home. She moved out with her children into a smaller, less accommodating home. Soon after, she became ill and presumably died. Moe has been taking care of his [[Moe's siblings|three siblings]] ever since the loss of his mother. Later in ''[[Densetsu no Starfy 3]]'', Moe met up with his father, [[Kyorozou]] on various occasions. Tragically, in [[Old Castle]]'s [[Area]] 3, Kyorozou sacrificed his life for Moe when Moe was hit by a lightning attack by Evil, after Kyorozou went in Moe's place and pushed him away to try and endure the attack.

===''Densetsu no Starfy''===
[[File:StarfyMeetsMoe.jpg|thumb|140px|left|Starfy meets Moe and [[Fork]] for the first time.]]
[[File:MoeStafy1Ending.png|thumb|230px|Moe and his [[Moe's Family|siblings]] celebrating at the end of the game.]]
Starfy first meets Moe in [[Coral Reef]]. Before meeting Moe, [[Herman]] reveals that his friend Moe is being chased by bad guys, so Herman wants Starfy to help him. Either [[Fork]] or [[Fork's brother|his brother]] is seen swimming away, so Starfy follows him until he gets to a room where Fork is picking on Moe with his brother. After Starfy defeats them, Moe reveals that "his dearest" [[Ruby]] was kidnapped by a bad guy called [[Konk]]. It was then Fork and his brother chased after him. Starfy and Moe later become good friends, and Moe joins Starfy on his quest back to Pufftop, offering advice. After destroying the [[Dentalium Shell]] and the [[Kettle]] that were blocking the water in Coral Reef from flowing, Starfy finds and defeats Konk. Ruby returns and Moe is much happy to see her again. Starfy and Moe advance to [[Stranded Whale]] and Moe continues to tag along with Starfy and offer him advice until the end of their journey, after which Moe stays with Starfy in [[Pufftop|Pufftop Palace]].

In the second staff credits, it is revealed that Moe lives in a rundown house with his three [[Moe's Family|siblings]], and they are all crying because they wanted some meat, a teddy bear, and a [[Game Boy Advance]]. However, Moe couldn't get them those things since they didn't had the money, and what he said caused them to cry again. Moe then tried to figure out where he can get some money, but before he thought of something he saw [[Ruby]] and followed her instead which led to meeting and becoming great friends with Starfy. Later after Starfy defeated Ogura once and for all with Moe sealing Ogura back inside the [[jar]], Moe was rewarded with [[treasure]] for helping Starfy. Then, Moe uses the treasure to get the things his siblings wanted. The siblings then grabbed the things they wanted and all the four clams dance at the end of the second staff credits.

===''Densetsu no Starfy 2''===
At the beginning of the game, when the [[Puchi Ogura]] cause a storm to hit Pufftop Palace like the one in ''Densetsu no Starfy'', Starfy hides in Moe's shell for safety from the storm and the debris but when Ogura kidnaps [[Mama Star]], Starfy has no choice but to run after them.

Ogura leads Starfy to the edge of Pufftop Palace and Ogura floats down towards the ocean. Starfy cries and runs off to rescue Mama Star. Moe clings on to Starfy, telling him that it would take much effort for him to return to Pufftop. Starfy resists, so Starfy and Moe both fall off the edge of Pufftop on to a beach. Moe moans at Starfy, who is tearful and Starfy begins to cry, which Moe finds annoying. Starfy eventually stops crying. Moe asks Starfy to follow him and reassures him that he can get help from [[Old Man Lobber]] when he is troubled.

As in ''Densetsu no Starfy'', Moe tags along with Starfy throughout his adventure, offering him advice and interacting with other [[characters]]. After beating [[Area]] 5 of [[Turtle Turtle Land]], Moe's House appears on the [[Map (Areas)|Map]] and can then be accessed from the Map of any [[Stage]] or the [[Stage Select]] screen via the R button.

===''Densetsu no Starfy 3''===
At the beginning of the game, after [[Evil]] destroys the [[jar]], [[Ogura]] flees and says he won't be defeated as long as he has his 'personage' by his side. Moe wonders what Ogura means by his personage and he and [[Papa Star]] discuss the situation. Papa Star decides that as the problem stands they cannot afford to leave it alone. He tells Moe and Starfy that they must pursue Ogura and defeat him somehow. Moe becomes angry and calls Papa Star an idiot. He notes that the jar has already been smashed into pieces, and believes on all accounts their adventure isn't going to be beneficial. Papa Star becomes angry with Moe and asks "what are you talking about?", arguing that the peace of Pufftop is at stake.

Later, [[Starly]] appears. She jumps around Pufftop Palace and bounces off Moe. She asks why Starfy and others are "wasting time", which angers Moe. Starly pushes both Starfy and Moe off of the edge of Pufftop towards the ocean while they resist. Starly successfully pushes them off of the edge and then jumps off with them. As in ''Densetsu no Starfy'' and ''Densetsu no Starfy 2'', this time accompanied with both Starly and Moe, Starfy arrives at Lobber's Cave.

Like in ''Densetsu no Starfy'' and ''Densetsu no Starfy 2'', Moe tags along with Starfy (and this time Starly), offers them advice and interacts with other characters. After beating [[Coral Coast]]'s Area 3, Moe's House becomes available from any Area Select or the Stage Select via the R button.

On various occasions, beginning in the [[Jungle]], Moe reunites with his father [[Kyorozou]]. Tragically, in [[Old Castle]]'s [[Area]] 3, Kyorozou sacrificed his life for Moe when Moe was hit by a lightning attack by Evil, after Kyorozou went in Moe's place and pushed him away to try and endure the attack.

===''Densetsu no Starfy 4''===
At the beginning of the game, Moe is hesitant as usual to go on another adventure after [[Mattel]] informs Starfy, Moe and their associates of the [[Amiy Kingdom]]'s crisis but when Starly starts to talk about Ruby, Moe reconsiders and is excited to see her in the Amiy Kingdom. Moe says they should go and hear what the [[Old Man Lobber]] has to say first. As before, Starfy, Starly and Moe jump off Pufftop Palace into the ocean but this time they meet Old Man Lobber in [[Lobber's Villa|his villa]] in the Amiy Kingdom, although they land straight into his bonsai tree, ruining it, so they have to find a [[Repair Kit]] to fix it first.

Moe still tags along with Starfy and Starly, however, most of the time they have to speak to him via a [[Public Telephone]] and all of the Public Telephones with the exception of two in the final Area only appear before beating the game.

Moe's House returns in ''Densetsu no Starfy 4'', and can be accessed in [[Cupid Village]] after exposing [[Akureima]]'s disguise of Ruby and then rescuing the real Ruby. It can then be accessed from any [[Map (Areas)#Densetsu no Starfy 4|City]] or from the Stage Select either by touching its icon or via the R button.
{{spoiler}}
In [[Degil's Castle]], Starfy must extinguish the [[Heart of Conflict|Hearts of Conflict]] for [[Arasoinomon]]. Mattel teaches Starfy the [[Powerful Spin]] [[Spill]] [[Abilities|ability]]; an ability that can do this, and comments that Starfy is the first to learn it because he and Moe are great friends, but Moe ran away after falling into conflict with Starfy, so Starfy has to retrieve him.

After beating Degil for the first time, after Starfy sees Mattel hugging [[Coral|Prince Coral]] and finds out that Mattel is his fiancee, he becomes depressed and stays in his room sad and lonely in Pufftop Palace, so Moe tries to cheer him up but fails. When Starfy, Starly and Moe obtain all 36 [[Answers Card]]s and truly defeats Degil, Starfy, Starly and Moe stand on a hill watching over the [[Amiy Castle]]. He and the others attend Coral and Mattel's wedding afterwards and Mattel thanks everyone, in particular Starfy for his help in saving the Amiy Kingdom.

===''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' ===
Moe (as "Kyorosuke") appears as one of the collectable [[smashwiki:sticker|sticker]]s in the Nintendo fighting game ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' for [[Wii]].

===''The Legendary Starfy''===
At the beginning of the game, Moe states that Bunston jumped into the ocean. At the end when Starfy is about to fight [[Mashtooth#Second Form - Mega Mashtooth|Mega Mashtooth]], Starfy had gotten hurt, so Moe encouraged him saying: "Go for it Starf, Get up! No time for a nap! SOCK HIM FOR ME!" and at this, Starfy goes to the final battle.

===''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'' ===
In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', Moe appears as one of the available spirits who can assist the player in [[smashwiki:Spirits (menu)|Spirits mode]].

==Personality==
[[File:Treasure-Eyed_Moe.jpg|thumb|160px|left|Moe's "Glittering Eyes"]]

Treasure hunting is a hobby of Moe's. In ''[[The Legendary Starfy]]'', instead of helping [[Starfy]] chase the kidnapped [[Bunston]], he focuses on finding treasure. When Starfy is around treasure, Moe's eyes will glitter with pictures of the nearby find if the player has [[Moe's Sniffer]] turned on. This feature can be selected by tapping the small Moe at the bottom of the screen.

Moe also loves to eat fine foods. He apparently likes dumplings, as in ''The Legendary Starfy'', there is a mini-game game called [[Dumpling Master]], where Starly and Starfy create dumplings for Moe to eat. The player and Starly create the dumplings, and Starly gives them to Starfy to pass on to Moe. If Moe does not receive a decent amount, he will become furious and his top shell will bounce up and down. Moe will, at the end of the mini-game, tell the player how many dumplings they made. The official [[wikipedia:United States|United States]] website for ''The Legendary Starfy'' says he enjoys urchin nachos. This is confirmed in-game when Moe tells Bunston that one of his and Starfy's specialties are urchin nachos.

In ''The Legendary Starfy'', Moe has his own talk show, which he calls "''[[The Moe Show]]''". Random guests will appear, and the character and Moe will have a small conversation. Sometimes, Starfy will appear on the show; other times, supporting characters and even bosses, such as [[The Hot Spring Snapper|the Hot Spring Snapper]] from [[Hotcha Springs]] appear!

Moe also has a crush on another Starfy character, [[Ruby]]; a [[wikipedia:dendrochirus zebra|zebra turkeyfish]]. Whenever Moe is around Ruby, he becomes quiet, calm, and nicer than usual. It should be noted that in ''The Legendary Starfy'' (in one of the earlier levels) that Moe's [[Moe's Family|three younger siblings]] tells Starfy that Moe has a crush on someone. Later, they tell Starfy that the someone is, in fact, Ruby. Moe is also openly flirtatious towards [[Savako]] in ways that may be considered rude.

In the Japanese games, he refers to himself as 'ore-sama' (Japanese: オレさま), which may be seen as being arrogant, but Moe is good at heart, giving Starfy the support he needs to fulfill his quest. In ''Densetsu no Starfy'' he took Pufftop Palace's treasure, but he later used it to buy meat, a teddy bear, and a [[Game Boy Advance]] for his siblings.

Moe has had a number of fears in the games. In ''Densetsu no Starfy'', he was afraid of [[Dolfy]], a dolphin. In ''Densetsu no Starfy 3'', he was afraid of [[Mantahan]], a manta.

In ''The Legendary Starfy'', he showed signs of being afraid of [[Mega Snark]]. In the [[Side Quest]] "[[Side Quests#No. 5: A Little Lost|A Little Lost]]" he was afraid of {{Squirt|5}}'s voice, who he mistook for a bird monster.

==Abilities==
Being a clam, Moe's shell gives him protection. Despite this he still complains about heat and cold. Despite having no legs he can still move easily. Also he can leap into the air.

Moe can also dig into the ground and pop out of the ground quickly. He usually only does this to hide.

Moe can also survive great falls as in most of the games he along with Starfy usually plummet out of [[Pufftop]] into the ocean (with the exception of ''[[Densetsu no Starfy]]'' where Starfy first met him only after starting his journey).

Moe apparently has enough room in his shell to hold Starfy or Bunston while closing it but somehow they make impressions from the inside.

In ''[[Densetsu no Starfy 4]]'', Starfy can use an ability to team up with something that looks like Moe to perform the [[Spill]] [[Abilities|ability]] [[Powerful Spin]], during which Starfy grabs him from the back and spins while holding him. They move very quickly and start suffering from [[dizziness]] after the ability is finished. The real Moe likely isn't involved since Starfy can use this ability when Moe runs away in [[Degil's Castle]].

Beside the Powerful Spin, Moe has no physical attacks. He usually simply stands on the sidelines of Starfy and [[Starly]]'s adventures and offers them advice. In ''The Legendary Starfy'', he looks for treasure and helps Starfy find it via Moe's Sniffer.

==Trivia==
*Before the official release of ''[[Densetsu no Starfy]]'', Moe was referred to as キョロロン (''Kyororon'') in the [[Densetsu no Starfy (GBC)|Game Boy Color trial demo]] rather than キョロスケ (''Kyorosuke'').
