Twinbellows (ツインベロス Tsuinberosu) is a large, two-headed dog that acts as a recurring boss of the Kid Icarus series. Its body is engulfed in flames and is the very first boss that Pit faces in the series. It is commonly referred to as the guard dog of the Underworld.
Characteristics
Twinbellows is a large, demonic dog that lives within the dark caverns of the Underworld. In Kid Icarus, it was bright red in color, with yellow spikes running along its back (which are missing in its artwork). It also had a fiery mane, which was not visible in-game. In Kid Icarus: Uprising, its body is darker red, with much of its fur engulfed in flames. It is shown that the beast was formerly chained down since it has a large, metal brace with a broken chain attached to its left paw. Both of its heads also wear similar-looking spiked collars with chains dangling down from them. In addition, Twinbellows wears bone armor along its back, with funnel-like spouts that shoot flames running along its spine.
Appearances
Kid Icarus
Twinbellows is the Gatekeeper of the Underworld Fortress and the Three Sacred Treasures' Sacred Casket that lies within. Twinbellows travels slowly, spewing fireballs at Pit; these fireballs generally pass overhead and Pit's opening to attack is when Twinbellows is gearing up for another shot.
Manual Description
The Gatekeeper of the Underworld fortress. A devil dog with two heads. Its body is wrapped in fire, and spits out bullets of magma energy.

Kid Icarus: Uprising
Pit fights Twinbellows in a colosseum within a town of the first chapter called The Return of Palutena. Twinbellows is much larger compared to its previous appearance, and reprises its role as the first boss of the game. It is also fought again in Medusa's Final Battle as a midboss. His attacks include a swipe, a charge (if this misses, he is stunned for a moment from the collision with the colosseum wall), and various fire breath attacks.
A false copy created by Medusa appears in Medusa's Final Battle as one of the midbosses along with Hewdraw and Pandora. He attacks similarly as he did in the first chapter.
Idol Description
A two headed dog (hence the name) that guards the Underworld. Medusa unleashes Twinbellows during an assault on a human city, using magic to supersize the bicephalous puppy. But, for Pit, the louder they bark, the harder they fall.

Trivia
- Orthrus, the double-headed guard dog owned by Geryon, is the possible inspiration for Twinbellows. Orthrus was the "brother" to Cerberus, another multi-headed canine that guarded the Gates of Hades.
- Of all the returning bosses from the original NES game, Twinbellows is the only boss not to receive a speaking voice in Uprising.
