List of Copy Abilities

User:Nyargleblargle/DraftAlert In every Super Smash Bros. game so far, Kirby has had the ability to copy any other characters' neutral special moves with his neutral special attack, Inhale. If another Kirby is swallowed, only damage is dealt, but Kirby can steal a copy ability off the enemy Kirby, if they had one. When Kirby copies one of his opponents, he will also bear a resemblance of that character in the form of a hat of some kind, which usually show a prominent part of the character copied, and often times mimics their voices/sounds. When performing copied attacks, Kirby will also use the same weapons and poses as their owners.

Kirby can choose to discard the ability at any time by using his taunt, though he may also lose it when taking damage.

Character	Super Smash Bros.	Special move	Notes
Captain Falcon	File:Kirby cfalcon ssb.jpg	Falcon Punch	Amusingly imitates the famous "Falcon Punch!" shout. This imitation has become famous in its own right. It is possible to combo into this copy ability by using an up tilt beforehand, especially against fast fallers. Allows Kirby to use Falcon Punch as a horizontal recovery move.
Donkey Kong	File:Super Smash Bros. (U) snap0085.jpg	Giant Punch	Allows Kirby to turn in the air easier because of charge cancels. Also can be comboed into, but only against non-floaty characters using an up tilt beforehand.
Fox	File:Kirby fox ssb.jpg	Blaster	Gives Kirby the ability to short hop double laser and even short hop triple laser, as a result of Kirby's floatiness.
Jigglypuff	File:Kirby jigglypuff ssb.jpg	Pound	This Kirby hat is whatever colour Kirby is, instead of Jigglypuff pink. This is the only hat in this game to have such a property. It differs from Jigglypuff's Pound in that using this move toward a ledge sends Kirby off of the ledge, being notable for having much higher distance if Kirby leaves the ground at the end of the Pound animation (it is capable of traveling nearly the length of a Dream Land soft platform if spaced correctly).
Link	File:Kirby link ssb.jpg	Boomerang	Looks similar to Sword Kirby, since the Sword Kirby hat is likely a reference to Link. The attack is similar to Kirby's Cutter ability from his own games. Unlike the original that Link uses, Kirby can throw the boomerang through solid walls if he is touching them, allowing a method of pseudo-sharking on stages like Hyrule Castle (especially from the Greenhouse side) or Dream Land.
Luigi	File:Kirby luigi ssb.jpg	Fireball
Mario	File:Kirby mario ssb.jpg	Fireball
Ness	File:Kirby ness ssb.jpg	PK Fire	Kirby also does not wear the hat exactly as Ness does; he wears it backwards, whereas Ness wears it sideways. This may be a reference to Yo-Yo Kirby, Wheel Kirby, and/or Paint Kirby.
Pikachu	File:Kirby pikachew ssb.jpg	Thunder Jolt
Samus	File:Kirby samus ssb.jpg	Charge Shot
Yoshi	File:Kirby yoshi ssb.jpg	Egg Lay	Kirby's original tongue is still shown while he is attempting to use Egg Lay.
