This article is about the boss Giant Kirby in Super Smash Bros. Melee, not Kirby with a Super Mushroom.

Giant Kirby is a minor boss in Super Smash Bros. Melee's Adventure Mode who will only appear if one defeats the single first Kirby and the Kirby team all in 31 seconds or less.

Overview

Giant Kirby is fought on Stage 5 of Adventure Mode upon the Green Greens stage and is a completely optional boss. If the player has met the requirement to battle him, a cinematic will play where he drops onto the second floating platform with a slightly deepened boing sound into a crouching state. He then quickly stands up straight and curves his neutrally positioned mouth into a small smile. The player can be seen at the lower-left region of the screen when Giant Kirby makes his entrance.

Giant Kirby is slightly larger than a regular Kirby with a Super Mushroom, and is heavier and stronger than Kirby. If the player defeats Giant Kirby, he or she will receive the bonus Giant Kirby KO, which awards 10,000 extra points.

Giant Kirby also appears in Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Super Smash Bros. 4 as a random giant opponent in Classic Mode (despite his frequent apperance in Melee). In Brawl he is randomly fought on stage 5 with either Meta Knight or King Dedede fighting alongside the player. King Dedede and Meta Knight also can be a giant opponent. So he is a possible giant opponent in Stage 5 on Classic Mode in Brawl; despite his frequent appearance in 1 player modes from Melee (which is Adventure Mode in Melee; and takes place on Stage 5). In both of these two installments (Brawl and Smash 4) this is his only appearance aside from being a possible opponent in Stage 5.
