Tac

Tacs (, Tac) are cat-like ninja-dressed enemies from the series that act as the only source of the "Copy" Ability in the games.

Origin
Tac appears in the Kirby series as an enemy in Kirby Super Star and its remake . In the game, Tac has the unique ability to steal either the Copy Ability that Kirby currently has or his partner character: Kirby has to defeat the Tac to get them back. If Tac is swallowed by Kirby, he is able to gain the unusual ability of, which allows him to copy the abilities of enemies in front of him much like his basic abilities: this is mostly useful in the  mode, where Kirby can't copy abilities by inhaling, and against enemies that can't be inhaled like. In addition, like most other Copy Abilities, Kirby can sacrifice the ability to summon Tac as an ally; this Tac transforms into other partners based on abilities it steals, and can revert to its original form at will, effectively acting as a second Kirby.

In Smash Run


Tacs appear as enemies. They attack by throwing a large hand which deals no damage, but steals power-ups from the player. After a successful theft they quickly run away, occasionally stopping to look around. Defeating them makes them drop their loot, but if they run off the screen it will be permanently lost.

In Smash Tour
Tacs appear as a random event. Three Tacs carrying powerups roam around the board, picking up any stat bonuses along the way, and players who bump into them will defeat them thus gaining their loot.

Trophy
The Tac trophy appears in both versions of the game, it is obtained by collecting all the CDs.
