Differences for Kirby's Copy Ability

• The aerial version has a shorter animation (60 frames → 57), allowing Kirby to fast fall, grab ledges, and activate a held Assist Trophy earlier after using it.
  • However, the grounded version conversely has a longer animation (63 frames → 66).

Parameters

These parameters also apply to the lasers fired from Falco's back throw, up throw, and down throw, with the only difference being the trajectories they are fired at.
