“When you swim the underwater rapids, you'll encounter some Squisters. If those squid-like enemies see you, they'll rocket toward your position. There's a medal around a certain pair of Squisters.”

— Daroach, in Kirby Mass Attack

Squister is an enemy from Kirby Mass Attack. Its name appears to derive from "Squishy" and "twister". It indeed looks similar to Squishy — being a squid-like creature — though instead of drifting lazily about in the water, it instead twists and launches itself like a torpedo. While launching, it is dangerous to touch, but once it hits a wall, it can be attacked.

Two varieties of Squister exist. The first launches in a set area and direction, while the other will try to target the Kirbys before launching. This first type is blue in hue, and is worth 200 points when defeated, and the second type is purple, worth 400 points instead.
