Kirby

"Hiii!!"

- Kirby

Kirby is a creature of a puffball-like species from the planet Pop Star and the main character of the Kirby series. He lives in a country called Dream Land, which is ruled by the corrupt King Dedede. The self-proclaimed king frequently causes trouble, leaving it to Kirby to protect his homeland. On his adventures, he runs into many other characters, such as the shady Meta Knight. Kirby defeats Dedede and his many minions by his signature ability, inhaling items and enemies and spitting them out or using their abilities.

Kirby rarely appears in the Mario series, but his most notable appearances alongside Mario are in the Super Smash Bros. series.

''Club Nintendo
Kirby made his first Mario-relevant appearances in the German Club Nintendo comics. He was one of the few non-Mario characters to appear there recurringly.

Who is kirby ? Kirby is an awesome kirby, who thinks sonic is crazy for having kids with amy!!!! Here is a quote from kirby " OMG SONIC HAS KIDS AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH OMG!!!!!!!!!!!" SO...... Shadow is to sexy for his pants too, LOL. But anyway kirby is awesome moving on!!!!!

"Super Mario: Mario im Wunderland"
Kirby debuted in the comic "Super Mario: Mario im Wunderland." In this comic, Mario gets to Wunderland by accident, which is a strange land where a wizard is said to be able to fulfill desires. Among others, Mario meets Kirby in Wonderland, and mistakes him for a pillow. This annoys Kirby, and since he says he wants to look like Mega Man, he joins Mario on his way to the wizard. When arriving there, however, Kirby just says that he would like to not be a pillow any longer. The wizard then turns him into a toaster.

"Warios Weihnachtsmärchen"
In the story "Warios Weihnachtsmärchen," he is caged for unknown reasons in Wario's Bomb Shop and expresses his anger by commanding Wario to free him. The shopkeeper, however, paints him black and sells him as a "surprise bomb." When the buyer, Kid Klown, finds out about Kirby being the "surprise", both are angry at Wario. At the end of the story, they forgive him, as he gives some cookies to them.

"Super Mario in Die Nacht des Grauens"
He makes one more appearance in the comic "Super Mario in Die Nacht des Grauens," featuring him as Mario's ally in the fight against Abigor. In this story, Kirby lives in a skyscraper together with several other Nintendo characters. In order to fight Abigor, who plans to take over the building, Kirby together with Mario and Link puts on some magic clothes and serums which turn them into aggressive ghostbusters. In this form, Kirby uses his Inhale and Fire Breath abilities to fight Abigor's allies.

"Die Jagd nach dem Nintendo 64: Krawall im All"
Kirby's latest relevant, yet very minor Club Nintendo appearance was in the comic "Die Jagd nach dem Nintendo 64: Krawall im All." Kirby was one of the many characters to celebrate the Mario Brothers when they managed to find the then new Nintendo 64 first, before Bowser and Wario.

''Mario Kirby Masterpiece
Kirby appeared alongside Mario in the obscure educational video Mario Kirby Masterpiece; however, this video was merely a compilation of their non-intertwining adventures. In Kirby's Mario Kirby Masterpiece segment, he helps a little lost dog find its mother, who was kidnapped by King Dedede.

Super Smash Bros.


Kirby appears in Super Smash Bros., whereas Kirby is eight inches high: his dimensions were obviously heightened for this game. Kirby was a light fighter, and most of his attacks were light-weight (except for his Stone attack, of course). However, Kirby had a unique ability, so far restricted to him. He is able to use suction abilities, and pull an opposing fighter inside his mouth. Once he spits that player out, Kirby would gain one of his or her powers. This attack is taken straight from the Kirby series. Each character gives him a different attack, and he could easily get rid of the power by taunting.

Super Smash Bros. Melee


Kirby returned in the game's sequel Super Smash Bros. Melee. He is still a default character, but unlike the previous game, he is lighter and slower, which lead to a poor tier position in Melee's tier list. His new attack is the Hammer.

In Adventure Mode, Kirby appears in Stage 5: Green Greens. The player must battle 18 Kirbies, each with a different power. If the 18 Kirbies are defeated in less than 30 seconds, a giant Kirby appears to battle the player.

Kirby's special moves from Melee are used in the game Kirby & the Amazing Mirror, through the use of the ability called Smash. The moves he gets are Neutral Air Hammer, Final Cutter, Stone, and Vulcan Jab. He obtains the ability from Master Hand, who is a boss in the game.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl
Kirby returns in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, along with his rival Meta Knight and archenemy King Dedede. Kirby's Final Smash attack is called Cook Kirby. Stage 5 of Classic Mode always uses characters from the Kirby series, thus Kirby has a chance of appearing in it. Stage 15 of All-Star Mode is also Kirby based.

Solid Snake Codec Conversation

 * Otacon: Snake! Watch out!
 * Snake: For what? That pink marshmallow?
 * Otacon: That's Kirby, also known as "Kirby from Dream Land." He's from another planet--in other words, an extraterrestrial. He's got a powerful stomach that lets him swallow and digest anything. And he also has a "Copy Ability" that allows him to mimic opponents, steal their moves, and use those moves against them. On top of that, he has the power to fly around the stage, so once he's got you in his sights, there's no place to run.
 * Snake: ...Huh? Yeah, got it. I'll... keep an eye out.

The Subspace Emissary
In the beginning, a trophy of Mario and Kirby are thrown into an arena. The two come to life and fight. The player chooses either Mario or Kirby to play as. After the battle between the two, the winner resurrects the loser with a touch. The Subspace Army attacks the stadium, but Mario, Kirby, Peach, and Zelda oppose them. Mario is blown away by a cannon ball, and Kirby is ambushed by Petey Piranha, who has captured the princesses. Kirby then goes off against Petey. After either Peach or Zelda is freed, Kirby takes her for a ride off into the Sea of Clouds on his Warp Star before taking a hit and landing on the Halberd. Soon, an Arwing is shot down, blowing both the Princess and Kirby off the Halberd on the ground below.

After the Princess and Kirby land in a grassy area, Kirby runs away, leaving the princess behind. The princess turns around and sees Bowser with a Dark Cannon who immediately shoots her to transform her into a trophy. Kirby hops on King Dedede's Cargo (originally belonged to Wario) and waits there.

After King Dedede collects the Link and Yoshi (or Mario and Pit) trophies, Kirby hops out. King Dedede then gasps and with Kirby's Cutter Sword, Kirby destroys the large object that is holding the two trophies. Kirby quickly revives the two, and they all jump off the car. King Dedede turns around and leaves, but his cargo ends up blowing an engine from an arrow that's either fired by Link or Pit.

Kirby, Mario, Pit, Link, and Yoshi become a team and go to save the other trophies (the other princess, Ness, and Luigi). They reach King Dedede's Castle, but they are still unable to rescue the trophies as Bowser escapes with the princess trophy in his Koopa Clown Car while the other trophies are buried under a large pile of stones. While Bowser steals the princess, the badge that Dedede had put on the princess falls. Kirby goes to inspect it and swallows it. The team then leaves because Dedede's Castle is destroyed by another Subspace Bomb. After leaving, they reach a desert below the castle where they follow the Ancient Minister. However the Ancient Minister sends R.O.B.s out to stop them, and he sets another bomb. It explodes, however Mario hops on Yoshi and rides off. Meanwhile, Pit and Link hop on Kirby's Warp Star and fly off. They escape before the explosion can reach them.

Later, Kirby and the others find the Ice Climbers, Marth, Lucas, the Pokémon Trainer, and Ike fighting the Subspace Army and subsequently join the fight. All of the other heroes join up with them afterward. Near the end, when the heroes are all fighting Ganondorf and Bowser in Ganondorf and Bowser's large Subspace Gunship, Kirby ends up destroying the gunship. He comes riding a Dragoon and flies right in the villain's large cannon, destroying not only the cannon but the whole ship itself. Ganondorf and Bowser escape going in the large black hole in the sky. All the heroes follow them inside.

The heroes are all in Subspace itself. Kirby and all the others attempt to fight Tabuu; however, they are all defeated with his Off Waves. The badge that Kirby swallowed turns out to have the power to turn a trophy back to life. Kirby is brought back and goes off to revive Link, Yoshi, Peach, Zelda, the Ice Climbers, Meta Knight, Lucario, R.O.B., Solid Snake, and even Wario, who also had been working with the Subspace Army and ended up in Subspace earlier on. Soon Kirby comes across Ganondorf in his trophy form, but before he could do anything, Bowser suddenly appears and starts attacking Ganondorf, having been betrayed by him earlier. Dedede (who revived Luigi and Ness with the badges) then reunites with Kirby. Kirby, as well as everyone else, fights Tabuu a second time and are able to defeat him (with some extra help).

Giant Kirby
Giant Kirby is, as his name implies, a gigantic Kirby, and a boss in the game Super Smash Bros. Melee. Giant Kirby is also a playable character if the player plays as Kirby, and Kirby eats a Super Mushroom.

Giant Kirby is only encountered by players if they manage to defeat every Kirby in the Green Greens stage of Super Smash Bros. Melee's Adventure Mode in less then thirty seconds. Doing so will summon Giant Kirby, who will drop from the air and challenge players.

Giant Kirby uses the same attacks as a regular Kirby, though they're much more powerful. Giant Kirby, like his smaller brethren, can also inhale opponents and gain one of their abilities, as well as copy their appearance.

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, players can become Giant Kirby again by grabbing a Super Mushroom.

Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga
Kirby made a cameo in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga in the Yoshi Theater poster. There was a poster in the theater advertising a movie known as Kirby Story, whose artwork featured Kirby riding a Warp Star through the air.

Inhale


Kirby's Inhale (Swallow in Super Smash Bros. and Super Smash Bros. Melee) attack, which appeared in all three games from the Super Smash Bros. series, is his standard special move. When Kirby swallows an opponent, three things may happen. If the player presses the special or down button, Kirby, in almost all cases, copies his opponent's standard special attack in the place of Inhale, as well as receiving one of the several Kirby Hats corresponding with whichever opponent he swallowed. This does not work on the following only: If the player presses the or, Kirby spits out the character, doing damage to him/her. Kirby does not absorb his target's abilities by doing this. Also, opponents can break free from Kirby if they rapidly mash buttons.
 * Another Kirby (unless that Kirby has a different power)
 * Metal Mario (Super Smash Bros. only)
 * Any background enemy in Adventure Mode i.e. Primid, Goomba, Koopa Troopa, Koopa Paratroopa, ReDead, Like Like, Octorok, Topi and Polar Bear.
 * Polygons, Wire Frames, and Alloys.
 * Bosses

In the original Super Smash Bros., if Kirby holds an opponent in his mouth, he would be unable to walk or jump until he spits or swallows the enemy. All he is limited to in movement is to turn around. This was fixed in Super Smash Bros. Melee. If Kirby uses his Taunt, he lets go of the power that he gained.

Hammer
Not to be confused with Mario and Luigi's Hammer, Hammer is a special move that Kirby can use in Super Smash Bros. Melee and Super Smash Bros. Brawl. It is Kirby's side+ move, and the attack differs in the air. It resembles King Dedede's hammer. On the ground, Kirby pulls out a very large hammer, holds it back, and then swipes across, hurting anyone who gets hit. It is a good long distance move, but it takes a while to use. In the air, Kirby pulls out the Hammer, and he spins forward with the hammer out. This is also a good long range attack. The attack itself is one of the Kirby's many weapons in the Kirby series. In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, however, when done in mid-air, rather than going vertical, it now spins twice horizontally.

Final Cutter
Final Cutter is an attack that Kirby can use in all three Super Smash Bros. games. It is executed by performing an up-special. Kirby flies with a Scimitar and crushes on the ground, damaging any opponents. Also, the move doesn't stop there; when Kirby hits the ground with the sword, a blue wave is sent across the ground, damaging any opponents that hit it. When coming down, Final Cutter acts as a weak Meteor Smash. It can also act as a third jump. The attack was introduced in Kirby Super Star as part of the Cutter ability, but was later changed to one of Sword's attacks. Final Cutter is not to be confused with Cutter, a character from The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3.

Stone


Stone is an attack used by Kirby in all three Super Smash Bros. games. Kirby uses this attack only if a down special is executed. Once this is done, Kirby transforms into a random heavy object. He cannot move in this state, but he cannot be hurt. Grabbing, however, nullifies this immunity. The attack is best used in the air, so that Kirby can drop on the opponent. In the original Super Smash Bros., Kirby only turned into a rock. However, in the sequel and Brawl, Kirby could change into different things; a Garbage Block from Panel de Pon, a pink rock (the original Stone from Kirby's Adventure), a 100T weight, a spiked ball (bearing a similar look to a Gordo), and even a Thwomp.

Cook Kirby


Cook Kirby is the name of Kirby's Final Smash move in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. When Kirby breaks the Smash Ball during a fight, he can pull out a giant pot and wear a chef's hat. He uses his spatula to draw players, and even items into the pot and starts to simmer the boiling water. As he does this, he damages the players caught in the pot massively. He then takes out all the players, and sends them flying across the stage with items coming out.

The items that pop up is determined by what items are turned "ON" in the Item Switch menu. This applies to Group Mode and Training, but not for any other game mode.

Profile Information from ''Super Smash Bros.
''The 8-inch high Kirby hails from a distant, peaceful star. Like his simplistic appearance, he is an easily-understood character. True to his instincts, Kirby eats when he gets hungry and sleeps as soon as he grows tired. Nevertheless, Kirby remains a formidable opponent. In addition to his distinct flying and swallowing skills, he also has the ability to copy enemy attacks for ever-changing action.
