Kirby

Official art of Kirby from the game.

In game bio:
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.
Works:

• Kirby's Dream Land (GB)
• Kirby's Pinball Land (GB)
• Kirby Super Star (SNES)

Kirby's 3d image from the game's official site.

Kirby is one of the eight starting characters in Super Smash Bros. with his appearance from Kirby Super Star.
He enters the stage by crash landing a Warp Star, similar to how he lands on a section of a level he can't turn away from.
Most of his basic moveset consists of generic attacks, however his standard attack is based specifically on Fighter Kirby's Vulcan Jab move; also his Forward Throw seems to be based on Ninja Kirby's Air Drop from Kirby Super Star, while his Back Throw is similar to the Backdrop ability from Kirby's Adventure.
Unlike most characters who only have one midair jump, Kirby can perform five, which is based on his ability to float from the original games.

Special moves:

• Netural - Vacuum: Kirby's trademark attack, he inhales an opponent into himself and can either spit them straight out as a star, or swallow them (unless it's another Kirby) to gain a Copy Ability; after swallowing the opponent, Kirby changes in appearance and has his Neutral attack replaced by the opponent's, and this lasts until he performs a taunt. See here for a list of Kirby transformations.
• Up - Final Cutter: Kirby draws a sliver blade, jumps into the air, and falls quickly, releasing a blue "wave" projectile forward if he lands on a solid surface. The move is based on one of the cutter ability's moves first appearing in Kirby Super Star.
• Down - Stone: Kirby turns into a stone figure which can cause damage when falling on others. The move is based on the stone ability first appearing in Kirby's Adventure, with the stone itself having that similar model. Similar to the original games, Kirby is almost invincible while in stone form, but he can only stay in that form for a limited time.

Palette swap:

• Pink Kirby: 1P: Kirby's classic colors.
• Yellow Kirby: 2P (aka: Keeby: Kirby Bowl) - Based on the second player, Keeby. The color also resembles Beam Kirby.
• Blue Kirby: 4P & Blue Team (Ice Ability: Hoshi no Kirby Super Deluxe SFC): based on Ice Kirby from Kirby Super Star.
• Red Kirby: 3P & Red Team (Fire Ability: Hoshi no Kirby Super Deluxe SFC): based on Fire Kirby from Kirby Super Star.
• Green Kirby: Green Team (aka: Kusa Mochi Kirby): officially based on the Kusa mochi sweet, it also resembles the color of the original Gameboy screen or Plasma Kirby.

One of his victory poses is based on his victory dance from Kirby's Adventure.

Dream Land

Kirby and Ness's home stage, is based on the Whispy Woods boss fight in Kirby Super Star. Even Whispy Woods is an obstacle who blows a big gust of wind at anyone in front of him. Also, Dream Land can be seen in the background along with King Dedede and Bronto Burt.

Items

Items based on the Kirby series and their respective artwork from the game are:

Maxim Tomato

A recurring item from the Kirby series, where it's used to restore the player's health completely, when picked it restores 100% from the character's damage percentage,but now restores 50% from the character's damage counter in newer smash games.

Star Rod

The item from the final battle of Kirby's Adventure the Kirby series, when picked up it can be used as a battering ram and shoot stars off of it, similar to the original game.

Music tracks

• 10 - Dream Land: A fast-paced remix of the "Gourmet Race" Theme from Kirby Super Star, heard on Dream Land.
• 20 - Kirby Victory Theme: The victory fanfare of Kirby is an orchestration of the shortened "Stage Complete" theme heard in general Kirby games.

Kirby

Kirby returns from the previous game and is once again a starting character. His look has been upgraded for the new console, but he doesn't resemble his look in any specific game.

His palette swaps are the same as the previous game, while also including a white skin of him resembling his appearance in Kirby’s Dream Land for the Gameboy.

His moveset is the same with only minor changes, such as a fiery Dash attack based on his attack as either Burning Kirby or Fire Kirby. In addition, the Stone Transformation has new models, such as the original stone being colored pink and a 100 ton weight model, which resembles the 8 ton weight from Kirby Super Star.
His Vacuum attack has been renamed Swallow; see here for a list of Kirby transformations in this game.

Like every other character, he now also has a Side Special Move: Hammer. On the ground he is able to swing a hammer at the direction he faces, while on air, he is able to a vertical spinning attack. This is based on Hammer Kirby, but the hammer itself is almost identical to King Dedede’s.

Stages

The stage from the previous game can be unlocked, plus there are two new starting stages.

Green Greens

Like Dream Land, this is based on Green Greens level in Kirby. Unlike the previous stage, it is three floating islands connected by star and bomb blocks that fall in between. If the bomb block gets destroyed, the other blocks get destroyed. Apples can fall off from Whispy Woods, who can also blow a gust of wind from left or right (instead of only the one direction from the previous stage).

Fountain of Dreams

The stage has a similar appearance to Battlefield, except that the side floating platforms aren’t always even in height and the side of the bottom platform acts as a wall for wall-jumping. This seems to be based on the final level of Kirby’s Adventure under the same name where Kirby fights Nightmare.

Past Stages: Dream Land

The Kirby stage from the previous game returns unchanged and is unlocked after completing the target test with every character.

Items

The Maxim Tomato and Star Rod return from the original game, plus two new items.

Maxim Tomato

Its use is the same, but instead of restoring 100 damage points, it only restores 50. Unlike its bright red color in the Kirby games and Super Smash Bros. 64, the Maxim Tomato in Melee has a dark red color to it, giving it an original design.

Parasol

Based on the Parasol used by Waddle Dees (or Doos) and that Kirby gets after eating one and transforming into Parasol Kirby. While it can be used as a battering item, it can be used as a parachute to control the falling and avoid being helpless in battle. When Peach uses her Up-special while carrying a Parasol, she is seen using the item instead of her white umbrella. This version of the Parasol has a spike on top instead of a star, and it is only held open when a character floats in midair, or when it is stationary.

Warp Star

Based on the Warp Star Kirby can use to fly to different areas in Dream Land, which was also used in Kirby’s on-screen appearance in the original game. When a person grabs onto the item, they take flight and crash down from above. The user can move left or right to a specific location, but will always land from the highest platform of any point from left to right.

Trophies

There are 22 Kirby trophies in the game. Kirby’s 3 character trophies, 4 item trophies, 2 stage elements trophies, and 8 trophies about Kirby elements not in the game. We also list 5 extra trophies based on their transformations in Melee.

In the Kirby series, these juicy, health-restoring items were a favorite of the pink hero.	Play 10 VS. matches
Warp Star		Kirby’s Dream Land 08/92	The Warp Star originated as Kirby's ride: it helped the ponderous puffball get around at high speed. Hop on the Warp Star in Super Smash Bros.

Stage elements
Whispy Woods		Kirby’s Dream Land 08/92	A boss enemy from Kirby's Dream Land. Whispy Woods is a big tree that shoots whirlwinds at Kirby. It isn't the toughest enemy: all Kirby has to do is avoid the occasional whirlwind, suck in apples that fall down, and then shoot them back at the tree. In Super Smash Bros. Melee, Whispy Woods is quite the blowhard.	Available in the Lottery after completing Classic and Adventure Mode
Fountain of Dreams		Kirby’s Adventure 05/93	This mystical fountain in Dream Land uses the power of the Star Rod to create a gush of pleasant dreams that flow like water. The dreams then become a fine mist and drift over the land, bringing peaceful rest to one and all. It's been confirmed that there are identical facilities on other planets near Pop Star.	Available in the Lottery after completing Classic and Adventure Mode
Other elements
Fire Kirby		Kirby’s Adventure 05/93	When Kirby swallows a fire-wielding enemy, he transforms into Fire Kirby. Not only does he breathe fire in this form, but he can also sprout flames on his entire body and damage enemies by crashing into them.

Fighter Kirby		Kirby Super Star 09/96	Kirby dons a warrior's headband and becomes a fierce fighter when he swallows an enemy skilled at physical attacks. Fighter Kirby uses many colorful punching and kicking moves as he overpowers his enemies with his sparring skills. The Vulcan Jab is just one of the many techniques Kirby can use thanks to his copying power.	Available in the Lottery
Ball Kirby		Kirby’s Adventure 05/93	When Kirby swallows a ball enemy, he turns into a ball and can bounce off of floors and walls. It's tough to control, but well worth it for the strong attack power it gives Kirby. After his debut in Kirby's Adventure, Ball Kirby has popped up in several more Kirby games, such as Kirby's Pinball Land and Kirby's Block Ball.	Available in the Lottery, Snag the Trophies, Adventure Mode, and All-Star Mode
Waddle Dee		Kirby’s Dream Land 08/92	Many delicate creatures like this one inhabit Dream Land. They generally live carefree lives and have never considered themselves to be followers of King Dedede. Waddle Dees are innocent and generally harmless to man and beast. While they have virtually no offensive or defensive power, they'll sometimes try to wield a parasol.	Available in the Lottery, Snag the Trophies, Adventure Mode, and All-Star Mode
King Dedede		Kirby’s Dream Land 08/92	Dedede's the self-proclaimed king of Dream Land. While he says he's king, Dedede performs no administrative functions and the citizens of Dream Land continue to live as they always have. He's able to suck in air and fly like Kirby does, but only as a result of the vigorous training he undertook after being bested by Kirby.	Available in the Lottery after completing Classic and Adventure Mode
Rick		Kirby’s Dream Land 2 05/95	Rick made his debut alongside Kirby's other friends, Coo and Kine. He looks like a meek hamster, but when he puffs himself up, he's bigger than Kirby. When he's carrying Kirby on his back, he can mimic Kirby's copy powers with some special moves of his own. Rick's claim to fame is his exceptional traction on icy surfaces.	Available in the Lottery, Snag the Trophies, Adventure Mode, and All-Star Mode
Gooey		Kirby’s Dream Land 2 05/95	While Kirby swallows enemies in order to copy their powers, Gooey wraps them up in his tongue to steal their abilities. In Kirby's Dream Land 2, he occasionally appeared inside of a bag, but by Kirby's Dream Land 3, he was a full-fledged partner. He could be controlled by setting him up as Player Two.	Available in the Lottery after completing Classic and Adventure Mode
Meta-Knight*		Kirby Super Star 09/96	The mysterious head of the Meta-Knights, he wields his sword with dignity. He delivered his sword to Kirby and demanded single combat in a show of knightly honor; his strict adherence to his code of ethics makes him a rarity in Dream Land. Sometimes he throws off his cape in battle. It occasionally transforms into wings.	Available in the Lottery, Snag the Trophies, Adventure Mode, and All-Star Mode after playing 200 VS. matches

*Meta Knight actually made his first appearance in Kirby’s Adventure, plus his name here is spelled with a hyphen, instead of spaced. This mistake is a reference to his warriors led by him. The Japanese version fixes these issues. However, all versions of the game made his physical body silver instead of dark blue.

Music tracks

The game features five tracks from the Kirby series, including one returning from the previous game and four new ones (listed in bold):

• Fountain of Dreams: An orchestrated, atmospheric version of "Gourmet Race" from Kirby Super Star.
• Green Greens: An orchestration of Level 1: Green Greens stage music from Kirby's Dream Land, heard in Green Greens.
• Dream Land N64: The music for the Dream Land stage in Super Smash Bros., which is also a re-recording of the main "Gourmet Race" theme, is brought back unaltered along with the stage itself as Past Stages: Dream Land.
• Kirby's Victory: An updated version of Kirby's Victory theme from the previous game, in turn based on the The "Stage Complete" theme heard in Kirby games.
• All-Star Intro: Remix of quiet music heard in Kirby Super Star for SNES, heard at the All-Star Teleporter. It's listed among the original music for the game.

Trophy for the Food item.

Food is a type of item that can be picked up to restore health.
While it's officially considered an original "Super Smash Bros." item, and food is a common health recovery item in video games, it may also be inspired by the various type of food that Kirby can pick up in his own games to restore health.

This racing game uses on-screen graphics very similar to those from Super Smash Bros. Melee for the menus as well as the gameplay HUD. The sound effect used when selecting something in the menu is also a a deeper version of Melee's sound effect for the same thing.

The game includes slightly altered versions of the Green Greens music and Fountain of Dreams music from Melee:

Kirby & the Amazing Mirror

Kirby4 Super Smash Bros.

Kirby & The Amazing Mirror - Master Hand and Smash Copy Ability

Master Hand, the final boss from Super Smash Bros. games appears as a Mini-Boss in the game, acting similar to how it does in the original games.

If Kirby inhales Master Hand after defeating it, he gets the exclusive Smash ability, which provides him with an array of moves based on his moves from Super Smash Bros. Melee. Specifically, his basic attack on the ground is Vulcan Jab, based on Kirby's standard attack, his basic attack in the air is Twinkle Star, based on Kirby's standard aerial attack, while his side, up and down moves correspond to the respective special move from Smash, being Hammer (Hammer Spin while in midair), Final Cutter, and Stone respectively.

Master Hand returns alongside Crazy Hand as the final boss of Candy Constellation. They attack Kirby together, similar to how they behave in Melee. Kirby needs to defeat them both to win the fight, and Master Hand can't be inhaled on this occasion.

Playable characters

Kirby returns as a starting character. Two new Kirby fighters also arrive to Brawl.

Kirby

Kirby's moves are largely unchanged from the previous game, but becomes stronger and faster. Also his Dash attack is once again replaced by a different one, now based on the Break Spin of Yo-yo Kirby.
His Vacuum/Swallow move has been renamed Inhale and Kirby can now swallow items: swallowing health recovering items will have the same effect as picking them up, while inhaling explosives will deal damage to Kirby; see here for a list of the new or altered Kirby transformations in this game.
His palette swaps are the same of the previous game.

His new taunts are based on the Kirby dance (Up taunt) and his animation when picked in the original Super Smash Bros. (down taunt).

Like every character, Kirby obtains a new Final Smash move:

• Cook Kirby: Based on his Cook ability from Kirby Super Star. Kirby puts anything and anyone within a limited radius inside his cooking pot. After a short while, Kirby releases the opponents he traps with additional damage, as well as a few items.

Meta Knight

Meta Knight is a new starting character. While he does attack with his feet, his most prominent attacks involve using his sword Galaxia.
Similar to Kirby he's able to perform five midair jumps by flapping his wings.

He enters the arena by spinning in his cape. This animation, which is also similar from his up taunt, may reflect the times he leaves after defeat from battle. His side taunt has him say, “Fight me!” while pointing his sword and his down has him open his wings and say “Come.” This taunt is a reference to the pose he makes before fighting Kirby. Finally, his down taunt has him spread his wings and facing the camera menacingly. This could be a reference to the pose he makes at the last part of "Revenge of Meta Knight" when Kirby tries to escape the Halberd in the game Kirby Super Star.

Special attacks:

• Neutral - Mach Tornado: Meta Knight whirls at high speed, causing a slight pull on nearby opponents, slashes them multiple times, and traps them in a barrage of blade swipes. This move can also change in direction and its duration can be increased by mashing the attack button. While Meta Knight was able to use this move in Kirby Super Star, it controls like Tornado Kirby.
• Side - Drill Rush: Meta Knight whirls forward in a drill like motion. This move can also be angled. Drill Rush is the Dash-B ability Kirby used in Kirby & The Amazing Mirror when obtaining Galaxia. The rolling may also resemble the Quick Spin he does in Kirby’s Air Ride.
• Up - Shuttle Loop: Meta Knight jumps with his sword pointed upwards, performs a loop, and then glades with his blade pointed forward. While this move may be original to Super Smash Bros., it most likely references one of Wing Kirby’s abilities in Kirby Super Star which requires him to toss an enemy in the air.
• Down - Dimensional Cape: Meta Knight wraps himself in his cloak, disappears for a while, and reappears with a slash attack. Meta Knight can change his position with this attack. Like his entrance in the arena, this may also reference the fact he could teleport.
• Final Smash - Galaxia Darkness: Meta Knight swings his cape in front of him. Anyone that is engulfed in his cape gets slashed after the stage completely darkens, resulting in a heavy knock-back. While it does utilize the tools Meta Knight used in previous games, this move originates in Super Smash Bros.

While most of the palette consist of alternate costumes in Kirby Air Ride, his blue palette is based on his original appearance in Kirby’s Adventure, as opposed to his default that’s based on most recent games.

King Dedede

King Dedede is a new starting character. Despite his heavyweight nature, he has good recovery that can protect him from almost any distance. He mostly fights with his hammer, though he does utilize attacks with his body.

He enters the arena by jumping off a palanquin carried by four Waddle Dee. There is also a Waddle Dee shown in his victory pose. This most likely references his rule over them. His different taunts reflect his personality of being an ally and enemy in Kirby games.

Special attacks:

• Neutral - Inhale: Nearly every Kirby game with King Dedede in it features him being able to inhale his enemies. Unlike Kirby, he can only spit out his opponents without copying his/her ability when releasing.
• Side - Waddle Dee Toss: King Dedede can throw a Waddle Dee, a Waddle Doo, a Gordo, or possibly an item. The Waddle Dee can reflect projectiles, the Waddle Doo can perform their Beam attack and Gordo can travel far horizontally, dealing high damage. Even though this move is original to Super Smash Bros., these enemies appeared in Kirby games. The throwing may be a reference to Kirby: Squeak Squad when Dedede throws Kirby.
• Up - Super Dedede Jump: Dedede jumps extremely high, then suddenly crashes down. This is a prominent attack King Dedede has used as a boss, which result in one star on each side of him.
• Down - Jet Hammer: King Dedede charges his hammer and swings it with a rocket force. It can be charged continuously, but it will start do deal damage to Dedede after a while. Despite the jet engine in the hammer originating from the game, Hammer Kirby has used a similar move when charging his hammer.
• Final Smash - Waddle Dee Army: King Dedede summons hoards of Waddle Dee, Waddle Doo, and Gordos all across the battlefield.

• Red: (default)
• Pink: Resembles one of his alternate colors in Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards’ Multiplayer mode.
• Green: Resembles one of his alternate colors in Kirby Air Ride.
• Purple: Resembles one of his alternate colors in Kirby Air Ride.
• Blue: The obi’s color scheme looks similar to the menu background in Kirby 64.
• Brown: Resembles his appearance in Kirby's Dream Land.

Stages

The Green Greens stage from Melee returns as an unlockable stage after completing 20 Vs. matches as Kirby, while there's a new starting stage:

Halberd

Based on the battleship in the Kirby Super Star subgame “Revenge of Meta Knight”. The players start fighting in a hangar with the ship docked. After a while, the ship takes off, as well as the platform the fighters fight on and the dight continues while the platform flies around with the ship in the background. After one minute, the platform lands on the head of the ship, in front of the Combo Cannon, which can extend its arm to swipe the players, or shoot cannonballs or laser beams. Eventually the platform leaves the Halberd, but after a while it returns on the previous spot unless the match ends before it happens.

Items

The only Kirby item from Melee that doesn't return in Brawl is the Parasol, however there are two new items for a total of 5 items.

Superspicy Curry

Once eaten, the player changes movement pattern while also spewing out fireballs from where its facing, even without performing an attack. This can constantly stun players while in the fire’s rage. This item was used to temporary spew out fireballs in Kirby’s Dream Land, before Fire Kirby existed.

Dragoon

The nosecone, body, and tail of the Dragoon.

The fully assembled Dragoon.

The Dragoon is based on one of the two legendary vehicles from Kirby Air Ride that is known for its flight abilities. Like in the original game, this item can only be used when one player has all three parts: the nosecone, body, and tail. Once activated, the player's character moves off screen and the player takes control of a crosshair to aim at the opponent and hit him/her, resulting almost always in a KO.

Knuckle Joe

The recurring enemy from the Kirby series is an Assist Trophy in Brawl and behaves like he does in the games. Knuckle Joe moves around on stage, rapidly hitting opponents with Vulcan Jab. He then finishes with either a strong “Smash Punch”, or an electrically charged “Rising Break” uppercut.

Trophies

There are 42 Kirby trophies in the game. 6 playable character trophies (2 for each of the 3 characters), 1 Assist Trophy, 6 item trophies (5 for the regular items, one for the Apple item, exclusive to the Green Greens stage), 27 series related trophies, and 2 stage element trophies.

Playable characters
Kirby		GB Kirby's Dream Land SNES Kirby Super Star	A round, pink ball of cuteness from a distant, peaceful star. He can swallow anything with his gigantic mouth, then spit it out as ammo. He has the handy ability to copy powers and use them as his own. His hovering ability lets him fly through the air with ease. He's so round, he's sometimes treated like a ball.	Clear Classic Mode as Kirby
Cook Kirby		WII Super Smash Bros. Brawl	Kirby in chef's garb. When Kirby throws on his chef's hat, a giant pot appears in the center of the screen. All characters, items, and even long-distance weapons are sucked into the pot. Once they've simmered a bit, food items equal to the number of things in the pot appear. Characters in the mix get blasted straight up out of the pot.	Clear All-Star Mode as Kirby
Meta Knight		NES Kirby's Adventure SNES Kirby Super Star	The head of the Meta-Knights, and something of a rival to Kirby. He's quite an accomplished swordsman. Following his code of knightly ethics, he once delivered his sword to Kirby and demanded single combat. His giant cape transforms into wings, giving him the power of flight. He's shown his face briefly before, but his relationship to Kirby is still a mystery.	Clear Classic Mode as Meta Knight
Galaxia Darkness		WII Super Smash Bros. Brawl	Meta Knight's Final Smash. He flips his cape, and the darkness within envelops his foes and plunges he world into shadow. He then unleashes a series of sword strikes that do terrible damage and launch his foes. In the darkness, Meta Knight can also reach and attack distant enemies. One can imagine Meta Knight zipping back and forth at high speed to accomplish this.	Clear All-Star Mode as Meta Knight
King Dedede		GB Kirby's Dream Land N64 Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards	The self-styled king of the amazingly peaceful Dream Land. He continually does things unbecoming a king, like stealing the kingdom's food supplies or all the stars from the sky. He's not all bad, though, and sometimes performs good deeds. While he and Kirby often battle, they've been known to compete good-naturedly at speed-eating contests and minigames.	Clear Classic Mode as King Dedede
Waddle Dee Army		WII Super Smash Bros. Brawl	King Dedede's Final Smash. He whistles, and an army of Gordos, Waddle Dees, and Waddle Doos rain down and rampage, pummeling all in their way. After a bit, they'll pack it in and hit the road. Any left can be forcibly removed. They are fast and numerous, which makes it difficult to get through their ranks without taking any damage.	Clear All-Star Mode as King Dedede

Maxim Tomato		GB Kirby's Dream Land SNES Kirby Super Star	A juicy tomato that heals 50 percentage points of the damage you've accumulated. When one of these appears in combat, rest assured there will be a race to see who can reach it first. It's a race of desperation between players who want to heal their damage and those who want to stop them from doing so. In the Kirby series, Maxim Tomatoes healed all damage.	Random
Dragoon		GCN Kirby Air Ride	An attack-capable Air Ride machine you can assemble by combining parts A, B, and C. You can knock off parts held by foes in combat, so stealing parts is something that's sure to occur. In Kirby Air Ride, you control legendary machines, but the Dragoon not only towers above all others in terms of speed, it is also able to fly.	Random
Warp Star		GB Kirby's Dream Land NES Kirby’s Dream Land 2	A warp-speed item. In the Kirby series, Warp Stars are used to move between stages. In Smash Bros., they're ultrafast attack items that zoom up and down to devastate anyone they hit. You can shift your landing spot by moving the Control Stick left or right during your descent. Choose your target and hang on! Don't overshoot the mark and plummet off the stage, though.	Random
Superspicy Curry		GB Kirby’s Dream Land	The spiciest curry around. Eat it, and you'll be able to attack by spitting out fireballs. The eater of the curry will soon be unable to handle the heat, however, and end up frantically dashing about the screen. This is a pretty funny sight that never gets old, especially when it's Samus or Snake. Eat this mouth-scorching dish if you dare.	Random
Star Rod		NES Kirby's Adventure SNES Kirby Super Star	A magic wand. Perform a standard attack with it, and it's a battering weapon. Perform a strong or smash attack, and it fires a barrage of star shots. Throw it at a foe, and that opponent will get sent flying sideways. In the Kirby series, the Star Rod is the power source of the Fountain of Dreams. King Dedede once stole it to imprison the Cloaked Nightmare.	Random
Apples		GB Kirby's Dream Land SNES Kirby Super Star	Fruit that falls from above when you're battling Whispy Woods. Kirby can suck them up and spit them out as useful projectile weapons. They're nice to have around when you don't have any Copy Abilities, but they do damage when they hit you, so they can be a bother too. They offer no ability when swallowed. These apples are not produced by Whispy Woods.	Clear Target Smash Level 1
Assist Trophy
Knuckle Joe		SNES Kirby Super Star	A martial artist known for amazing attacks like the Vulcan Jab. With his bandana, he looks and fights the part of a Muay Thai boxer. When Kirby copies Knuckle Joe, he gains the fighting techniques of a hand-to-hand-combat expert. Knuckle Joe also engages in friendly block-breaking competitions with Kirby. His other famous techniques are the Smash Punch and Rising Break.	Random
Series related
Beam Kirby		NES Kirby’s Adventure DS Kirby: Squeak Squad	Kirby in a jester cap...and a supercute Kirby at that. Beam Kirby features a Beam ability, acquired by inhaling Waddle Doo, that allows him to shoot a whiplike beam at his enemies. With a wide attack range, this ability is extremely easy to use, especially for taking out enemies in bunches. In Kirby Super Star, this beam can also be charged and fired.	Random
Needle Kirby		NES Kirby's Adventure DS Kirby: Canvas Curse	A Kirby ability made when Kirby inhales a spiked enemy. When attacking, the needles on Needle Kirby's body extend, giving him a porcupine-like look. This ability provides both offensive and defensive measures against nearby enemies. Plus, needles which extend on Kirby's underside when jumping eliminate any threats on landing.	Random
Sword Kirby		NES Kirby’s Adventure DS Kirby: Squeak Squad	A Kirby ability made when Kirby inhales a sword-wielding foe or a sword itself. Doing so provides Kirby with a rapid sword slash, a jumping sword spin, or even the energy-beam blast of the Final Sword. It wouldn't be a stretch to say that this is the #1 Copy Ability in terms of accessibility.	Random
Sleep Kirby		NES Kirby’s Adventure DS Kirby: Squeak Squad	Kirby after he copies the ability to sleep peacefully. Kirby takes on this form when he inhales Noddy or other such enemies. Kirby cannot move at all while sleeping, so extra care should be taken not to use this ability when enemies are near. Kirby, in his slumber, tends to drool, and in his panicked awakening, isn't it cute how he forgets to wipe off the drool?	Random
Wing Kirby		SNES Kirby Super Star GCN Kirby Air Ride	Kirby when he inhales a winged enemy and copies its flying ability. This ability can be used to proceed through strong winds that would otherwise be too tough to overcome. Wing Kirby can also perform a plethora of attack moves, such as the Bomber Head, where Kirby dive-bombs onto enemy heads.	Random
Fighter Kirby		SNES Kirby Super Star GBA Kirby & the Amazing Mirror	Kirby when he is skilled in martial arts, especially close-quarters combat. Inhaling brawny challengers like Knuckle Joe will transform Kirby, allowing him to use a bunch of fight moves like Rising Break, the heroic uppercut. His Mega Power Shot in Kirby & The Amazing Mirror, which used charged energy to take out faraway enemies, is another Fighter Kirby highlight.	Random
Fire Kirby		SNES Kirby Super Star DS Kirby: Canvas Curse	Kirby when he inhales an enemy who uses fire. Shooting fire from his mouth, Fire Kirby can cook enemies from afar. This ability also allows Kirby to light explosive blocks, fuses, and so on. In Kirby Super Star and Kirby & The Amazing Mirror, Fire Kirby can roll his burning body into enemies as an attack move.	Random
Ice Kirby		NES Kirby’s Adventure SNES Kirby Super Star	Kirby when he copies an enemy with chilly abilities. Ice Kirby can blow an icy wind from his mouth and freeze enemies solid. These frozen enemies can then be knocked into other enemies as an additional means of attack. These blocks are not only effective against enemies but can also be used on terrain such as magma or water.	Random
Plasma Kirby		SNES Kirby Super Star GCN Kirby Air Ride	Kirby when he inhales Plasma Wisps, which glow with a neon green flame. Plasma Kirby can charge the plasma strength up to a maximum level of 5. In Kirby Super Star, your attack--be it a Plasma Laser or a Plasma Wave Cannon--varies with the length of time you charge it.	Random
Tornado Kirby		NES Kirby’s Adventure GCN Kirby Air Ride	Kirby when he inhales enemies that fly around like twisters through the sky. When in tornado form, Kirby can spin freely through the air for short amounts of time, clearing out groups of enemies. Tornado Kirby will continue spinning and bouncing violently off of obstacles until he comes to a stop. One drawback of Tornado Kirby is the control difficulty.	Random
Waddle Dee		GB Kirby's Dream Land DS Kirby: Squeak Squad	A carefree creature that wanders the hills and dales of Dream Land. Basically harmless to creatures great and small, Waddle Dees sometimes use parasols to float down through the skies. If Kirby swallows a parasol, he'll get one he can use to float or ward off enemy attacks. On the other hand, Kirby can't copy anything by swallowing Waddle Dees themselves.	Random
Waddle Doo		GB Kirby's Dream Land DS Kirby: Squeak Squad	A creature identified by a single, unblinking eye. Like Waddle Dees, Waddle Doos roam about Dream Land and sometimes use parasols. Unlike their counterparts, though, they hate being approached--they'll fire a beam of energy at anyone who nears them, so don't think they're harmless like Waddle Dees. If Kirby swallows one, he copies the Beam ability and gains a jester's hat.	Random
Gordo		GB Kirby's Dream Land DS Kirby: Squeak Squad	A creature that sits in one place and doesn't even try to move. They won't even budge if Kirby tries to inhale them--they're the definitive obstacle. In addition, they're covered in spikes, so they damage whoever touches them. They're found stopped in groups, blocking narrow passageways, etc. Nothing's harder to get by than an encampment of Gordos.	Random
Dyna Blade		SNES Kirby Super Star GCN Kirby Air Ride	A monstrous bird with white- and rainbow-colored bladed wings and huge talons. Challengers who face Dyna Blade are forced to contend with her speed and armor plating that can reflect any attack. The only weak point is her head. In Kirby Super Star/Kirby's Fun Pak, she's destroying Dream Land's crops, but there's apparently a perfectly good reason for this.	Clear All-Star mode on Very Hard difficulty
Blade Knight		NES Kirby’s Adventure	A sword wielder covered head to toe in armor. Kirby can copy his Sword ability by inhaling him. Blade Knight has a variety of sword techniques, including chops and 100-slash combo attacks. As a helper, you can take him with you, and he will assist by taking out enemies with sword attacks. He's about as strong as Sword Knight.	Random
Bonkers		NES Kirby’s Adventure DS Kirby: Squeak Squad	A large enemy who wields a giant hammer as a weapon. Bonkers battles you with several moves—his hammer attack and coconut throw could be considered his specialties. Kirby can inhale Bonkers to learn Hammer and Smash techniques. Not many know this, but Hammer Kirby can also break walls and pound down stakes.	Random
Bronto Burt		GB Kirby's Dream Land DS Kirby: Squeak Squad	A bird that looks a lot like Kirby. Bronto Burt has clear wings that he uses to busily flutter around the skies of Dream Land. He will pull off sudden dive bombs on occasion, and although he has no ill will toward Kirby, Bronto Burt will sometimes collide with the pink hero if he gets in the way. You should be especially careful of these collisions.	Random
Cappy		GB Kirby's Dream Land SNES Kirby Super Star	A creature that looks like a walking mushroom at first glance. Inhaling him will strip off only his cap, revealing his true identity. Cappy tends to run around wildly, flailing his arms... and then gently eases back into a relaxed strut as if nothing ever happened.	Random
Golem		GBA Kirby & The Amazing Mirror	One of many statues found in Mirror Country, far up in the skies of Dream Land. Typically inert, Golems will only move to attack if Kirby draws near. Other Golems protect treasure chests, and some get shot from the mouth of the King Golem. Kirby can inhale Golems with a super inhale to copy the Stone ability.	Random
Kracko		GB Kirby's Dream Land SNES Kirby Super Star	A well-known boss from the Kirby series. Kracko is a cloud with a big eye and numerous spikes. He threatens Kirby with a number of weapons, including beam and rain attacks. In Kirby Super Star/Kirby's Fun Pak, Kracko first appears as Kracko Jr., continuing his onslaught on Kirby as he grows in size.	Random
Scarfies		GB Kirby's Dream Land GBA Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land	Creatures with cute, catlike faces that float through the sky in a playful, gentle manner. Try to inhale them, however, and Scarfies take to the offensive in a new, scary form. They can't be inhaled and eventually explode on their own. This is one enemy that you should probably attack as little as possible. That's right—let sleeping Scarfies lie.	Random
Sir Kibble		GB Kirby's Dream Land GBA Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land	An armor-clad foe. Sir Kibble grips the blade on his head between his hands before launching it at Kirby. By inhaling Sir Kibble, Kirby can copy his Cutter ability to throw boomerang-like blades. At close range, Sir Kibble can use his cutter like a sword for a direct attack.	Random
Walky		GB Kirby's Dream Land SNES Kirby Super Star	A microphone who trudges along and enjoys himself as he sings. By inhaling Walky, Kirby gains the ability to shout, allowing him to clear all enemies off the screen with a high-volume blast. This is a powerful ability that can only be used up to three times. In Kirby Air Ride, this ability sends every racer within range into a spin.	Unlock 50 hidden songs
Wheelie		SNES Kirby Super Star GCN Kirby Air Ride	A real speed demon. Once the Wheelie gets going, he can't be stopped. Wheelies are sometimes known to run in packs too. Kirby can copy the Wheel ability, turn into a tire, and run over enemies. The momentum will keep him rolling until he runs into an obstacle such as a wall.	Random
Hydra		GCN Kirby Air Ride	One of only two legendary Air Ride machines. Known also as the King of Destruction, the Hydra was born to battle. Collecting its three parts on City Trial will reveal its fiendish side. With high offensive and defensive levels, the Hydra can easily blast through rivals and obstacles, leaving a swath of ruin. This is the ultimate Air Ride machine for attacking the course.	Random
Bomber		NES Kirby’s Adventure SNES Kirby Super Star	One dangerous dude—as evidenced by the skull drawn on his body. Bomber walks around on two legs, but whenever he falls from stairs or other high places, he hits his head and explodes, covering a significant blast radius. Kirby can suck him up to learn the Crash ability, the ultimate weapon for wiping out every last enemy on the screen. Use it once and it's gone!	Random
Bugzzy		NES Kirby’s Adventure SNES Kirby Super Star	One of Kirby's foes. Those unlucky enough to get too close will get body-slammed with Bugzzy's vicious pincers. He also releases smaller bugs. Kirby can copy the ability to body-slam by inhaling him. In Kirby Super Star/Kirby's Fun Pak, this ability is called quick stamping. It's just one of many pro-wrestling moves he uses.	Random
Stage elements
Combo Cannon		SNES Kirby Super Star	The main gun of the battleship Halberd. As the name references, it has two guns--the top one shoots out slow-moving shells, and the bottom one fires a powerful laser. There's a mechanical arm at the base that is used to grab enemies and hold them to be blasted by the laser cannon. It has a wide attack range and once shot down Dyna Blade after she aided Kirby.	Clear Target Smash level 5 in under 30 seconds.
Halberd		SNES Kirby Super Star	Meta Knight's battleship, built to help Meta Knight take control of Dream Land. It's crewed by Meta Knight and the Meta-Knights and is equipped with the Combo Cannon and a shrimplike robot called the Heavy Lobster. Kirby destroys the ship's reactor, causing the Wheelies who power the ship to flee. In the end, the ship crashes into the sea while the sun sets in the background.	Clear Event #3: Pink Ball Repulsion.

An arrangement of the Fountain of Dreams theme from Super Smash Bros. Melee, previously featured in Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land and Kirby Air Ride, also returns in this game. It will be used again in the stand-alone version of Kirby Fighters Deluxe.

Playable characters

All three selectable characters from Brawl return as starting characters.

Kirby

Kirby returns with only minor changes to his look and basic moves, including now sporting a wider range of facial expressions based on more recent Kirby games.

He retains all the alternate outfits from the previous game, but now also has two new ones: an Orange one resembling Suplex Kirby or Kirby's appearance after using Orange Spray Paint in Kirby & The Amazing Mirror and Kirby: Squeak Squad; a Black/Purple one with bright yellow eyes, likely based on Meta Knight unmasked.

In the Boxing Ring stage, he is referred to as “The Pink Puffball”, referencing his color and shape of body. His Japanese name, “ピンクの悪魔”, is a reference to the in-game description for The Arena in Kirby Super Star.

His special moves received some minor changes, most notably his Hammer move being renamed Hammer Flip in North America, and now allowing Kirby to charge it similarily to King Dedede's Jet Hammer. He also received a new Final Smash move replacing Cook Kirby, and each of his moves received two alternate custom variations. All of Kirby's new moves are:

• Neutral: (See here for a list of the new or altered Kirby transformations in this game.)
  • Ice Breath: instead of inhaling, Kirby breaths cold air that freezes nearby opponents. This is based on Ice Kirby's attack.
  • Jumping Inhale: Kirby leaps forward and if he hits an opponent he'll inhale them, but the move doesn't have any vacuum effect.
• Side:
  • Hammer Bash: a variation of the Hammer move that can't be charged, working similarily to how it did in Brawl.
  • Giant Hammer: Kirby attacks with a larger hammer, giving the move a larger reach and making it stronger, but also making it slower. This may be based on Kirby: Squeak Squad, where Kirby could enlarge his hammer as one of the Hammer ability's moves.
• Up:
  • Wave Cutter: a variation of the Final Cutter move where the blade doesn't deal damage, but upon landing Kirby creates a wave of rocks that's more powerful than the regular move's wave.
  • Upper Cutter: Kirby deals a powerful strike while raising up, but Kirby then doesn't strike back down.
• Down:
  • Grounding Stone: a slower version of the Stone move, when used in the air it buries hit opponents in the ground.
  • Meteor Stone: a variation on the Stone move that has meteor smash effect on hit opponents, but it takes more time for Kirby to turn back to normal after using it.
• Final Smash - Ultra Sword: based on Kirby's Super Ability of the same name from Kirby's Return to Dream Land, Kirby dons a green cap and swings a giant sword many times at any opponent in front of him.

Meta Knight

Meta Knight returns with a slightly updated look, includig some details from his appearance from Kirby: Squeak Squad and Kirby Super Star Ultra.

He retains all the alternate costumes from the previous game, but also has two new ones: a Purple one resembling Galacta Knight from Kirby Super Star Ultra, and a Grey one resembling Dark Meta Knight from Kirby & The Amazing Mirror.

His moves received various minor changes most notably he now lacks the ability to glide, so his Shuttle Loop move now performs a second full hit after the loop, rather than gliding down.

In the Boxing Ring stage, he is referred to as “The Masked Swordsman”, referencing that he fights with a sword, and that he hides his true face inside a mask.

Custom moves:

• Neutral:
  • Entangling Tornado: a variation on the Mach Tornado move that pulls enemies in and deals a more powerful single hit that sends the opponents flying rather than multiple hits, and it has limited horizontal control.
  • Dreadful Tornado: a more powerful variation of the move that can't be extended by mashing the button, limiting its overall damage potential.
• Side:
  • High-Speed Drill: a variation on the Drill Rush move with higher speed and distance, but has decreased knockback and its direction can't be changed. In Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS, this variation need to be unlocked by winning 5 Smash battles as Meta Knight.
  • Shieldbreaker Drill: a less powerful version of the move with increased shield damage.
• Up:
  • Blade Coaster: a variation of the Shuttle Loop move that travels at a more horizontal angle, covering more distance, but has increased startup lag.
  • Lazy Shuttle Loop': a version of the move that performs a slower loop, then strikes with a single attack.
• Down:
  • Shield Piercer: an unblockable, but slower and weaker version of the Dimensional Cape.
  • Stealth Smasher: a version of the move that allows Meta Knight to remain hidden a longer time, but leaves him more vulnerable.

King Dedede

King Dedede returns from the previous game with some minor changes.

He retains all the alternate outfits from the previous game, with some minor changes, most notably his Green outfit now having drawings of Waddle Dees on the obi. Additionally, the returning Blue costume now has some light blue parts (and is considered his Cyan outfit), while the Brown outfit is more greyish (and is considered his Grey outfit).
King Dedede also gets two new costumes: a Blue one resembling one of his alternate colors from Multiplayer mode in Kirby 64, and a Black one resembling one of his alternate costumes from Kirby Air Ride.

In the Boxing Ring stage, he is referred to as “The King of Dreamland”, referencing his position as a king and the main setting of the series. The PAL French character title, “Le roi marteau”, is a pun with "marteau" in French which means "crazy" and "hammer"

King Dedede receives a new Side Special move and a new Final Smash, as well as each of his Special moves receiving two custom variations. All his new moves are:

• Neutral:
  • Dedede Storm: Rather than inhaling the opponent, Dedede produces a cyclone that hits repeatedly and then launches opponents upwards.
  • Taste Test: Dedede inhales opponents quickly and then spits them out immediately, dealing more damage than the regular move.
• Side - Gordo Throw: replacing Waddle Dee toss, King Dedede always pulls out a Gordo and then tosses it with his hammer, sending it bouncing in front of him with the possibility for the player to adjust the angle of the throw. It can also get stuck on walls or be hit back at him by opponents. If the move is performed when a Gordo is already out, then the move consists in a single hammer swing. The move's custom variations are:
  • Topspin Gordo: The Gordo moves a small distancee at first, but travels very fast after the first bounce.
  • Bouncing Gordo: The Gordo bounces more and has an electric effect, but deals less damage.
• Up:
  • Rising Dedede: King Dedede performs a high jump that only deals damage on the way up, but leaves him falling helplessly.
  • Quick Dedede Jump: a weaker, but much faster variation of the Super Dedede Jump that doesn't go as high.
• Down:
  • Armored Jet Hammer: a weaker version of the Jet Hammer move that grants Dedede with super armor while charging, but also gives more damage to him during the charge.
• Dash Jet Hammer: a weaker version of the move that sends Dedede back while charging and then dashing forward when striking the hit.
• Final Smash - Dedede Burst: King Dedede's new Final Smash replacing Waddle Dee Army, he inhales the opponents then slams them with three flaming hammer spins and finishes by throwing a bomb at them. While this move is original to Smash, the bomb's design seems to be based on the Bomber enemy from the Kirby series.

Smash Run enemies

This 3DS-exclusive mode features many enemies that must be fought by players. Nine of these originate from the Mario series, and are:

Bonkers

The recurring mini-boss, first appearing in Kirby's Adventure. He's a rare enemy in Smash Run and has higher health than most enemies, effectively serving as a mini-boss in the mode. He attacks with his hammer, much like he does in the original games.

Bronto Burt

The common flying enemy from the Kirby series, it appears as a common enemy in Smash Run as well, and attack by ramming into the player while spinning.

Gordo

The recurring spiked enemy from the Kirby series, like in its original appearances it's invincible and either remains stationary or moves in a set path. It can also damage other enemies.

Parasol Waddle Dee

The parasol-weilding variation of the Waddle Dee, it behaves much like it does in the original games: it comes gliding down with its parasol and if attacked it will lose the parasol turning into a regular Waddle Dee. The open parasol can function as a trampoline.

Plasma Wisp

The enemy from Kirby Super Star and its remake, Kirby Super Star Ultra. Like in the original games it floats around and attacks by shooting plasma beams at the player. It can charge the shot, dealing more damage the more it's charged. There are also shadowy versions of the Plasma Wisp when fighting against Master Fortress.

Shotzo

The recurring cannon enemy first appearing in Kirby's Dream Land, like in the original game it just stands in plae and shoots cannonballs at the player, and it's invincible.

Tac

An enemy from Kirby Super Star and its remake Kirby Super Star Ultra, where he would steal Kirby's copy ability, in Smash Run he steals power-ups from the player, and he must be defeated to get them back.

Waddle Dee

The basic enemy from the Kirby series, it just walks around and attacks by bumping into the player.

Waddle Doo

One of the more common enemies in the Kirby series, like in its original appearance it attacks with an energy whip.

Stages

The only Kirby stage initially available, albeit unlockable, in the 3DS version of the game is the new Dream Land stage, while the Wii U version features two stages, both available from the start: Halberd, returning unchanged from Brawl, and The Great Cave Offensive, new to the series.

Additionally, the Dream Land stage from the original Super Smash Bros. was released as DLC for both versions on June 14, 2015, called Dream Land (64) to distinguish it from the 3DS stage.

Dream Land

Taking place in a Game Boy screen, the stage is based on various areas from the original Game Boy game Kirby's Dream Land. Specifically, after a Game Boy startup screen with the "Nintendo" logo, the match initially takes place in Green Greens, then Float Islands, Bubbly Clouds, Castle Lololo and finally Mt. Dedede. Each zone includes two different areas from the game.
As a hidden easter egg, if the L button is pressed while selecting this stage, it will sport a black and white look instead of the green hue of the Game Boy. This works on both the regular version of the stage as well as its Omega version.

The Great Cave Offensive

Based on the sub-game from Kirby Super Star, it features areas based on each of the four zones from that game, therefore being one of the largest stages in the game. Specifically the top part of the stage is based on Sub-Tree, the lower middle part is based on Old Tower, the right part is based on Crystal, and the left part is based on Garden. The stage features hazards such as lava and spikes. Minecraft also occasionally appear, letting players ride them to inflict damage on opponents. If items are turned on, treasure chests containing items appear around the stage, referencing the treasures from the original game.

In Omega form the stage consists in one single platform mixing elements from the Sub-Tree section of the stage and the Crystal section of the stage.

Items

All of the items from Brawl return mostly unchanged. The only exception is Superspicy Curry, which shoots out a stream of fire instead of fire balls. This reference might be better known from "A Spice Odyssey" ("The Hot Shot Chef" in Japan) in the Kirby Right Back at Ya! anime, where Kirby shot out a stream of fire after eating what was dubbed as “Toxic Atomic Curry” to defeat Monsieur Goan.

Assist Trophies

Knuckle Joe returns as an assist trophy, acting the same way as he did in Brawl except that his attacks are weaker and he now performs his attack pattern twice. He now can also be attacked by opponents and eventually knocked out.

There also is a new Assist Trophy:

Nightmare

The final boss of of Kirby's Adventure and its remake Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land, once summoned he briefly appears in orb form and then turns into his Wizard form, based specifically on his appearance from the remake. He'll then make the screen go entirely black, forcing players to fight in complete darkness, save for the special effects of some moves.

Meta Knight Mask

One of the Mii headgear in the game is the Meta Knight Mask. Like most headgear in the game it's unlocked by collecting it as a randomly dropped item during matches or as a random reward in various modes.

Smash Tour Tac

In this board-game like mode exclusive to Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, Tacs occasionally appear as enemies on the board. They carry stat boosts with them and will grant them to the first player that touches them.

Trophies

The list of trophies differs between the two versions of the game, with the 3DS version including 27 Kirby trophies and the Wii U version including 42 trophies. 11 trophies are the same in both versions, 16 trophies are exclusive for the 3DS version and 31 trophies are exclusive for the Wii U version, so there are 58 Kirby trophies in total across both versions.

Note: both versions of the game have an Alternate character trophy for each of the three fighters, therefore these are sometimes listed as appearing in both games, however since they feature completely different models, we list them as separate.

Beam Kirby		NES Kirby's Adventure (05/1993) SNES Kirby Super Star (08/1996)	NTSC: Waddle Doo can fire beams from his eye. Does that make you green with envy? Then inhale him and copy that ability! You'll then be able to shoot beams from a wand, and the attack can even be charged up for greater effectiveness. You can also use a beam to push switches or to grab and toss your foes.

Fire Kirby		NES Kirby's Adventure (05/1993) SNES Kirby Super Star (08/1996)	NTSC: When Kirby first copied the Fire ability he was only able to breathe fire.

Now he can roll along the ground as a blazing fireball, burn up grass, light fuses, melt ice and so on.

Needle Kirby		NES Kirby's Adventure (05/1993) 3DS Kirby: Triple Deluxe (05/2014)	NTSC: Kirby normally looks as tasty as a big ol' marshmallow, but he's significantly less appetizing when he's copied the Needle ability. Those pokey spikes won't add any flavor at all. With this ability, Kirby can bash into enemies or launch the spikes at them. A great, easy-to-use ability! PAL: Kirby's soft, fluffy and just...so huggable! Except when he's got the Needle ability, that is - then it's like there's a hug-free zone all around him.

His Inhale move is now also capable of inhaling projectiles and Kirby can then swallow them to heal a small amount of damage, or spit them out as a star; Kirby now strikes a pose after inhaling an opponent, and he can lose the copy ability when receiving significant damage, much like in the original games (see here for a list of the new or altered Kirby transformations in this game).
Additionally, Kirby gets a new Stone transformation based on a Chest from The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild.
When winning a match outside of team battles, three separate Kirbys now appear performing Kirby's victory poses together, referencing the Kirby dances from his home series.

His new Boxing Ring stage name, “The Pink Demon”, is based on the Japanese translation of the previous game. This direct English translation has also been used in The Arena of Kirby: Planet Robobot.

Kirby's Classic Mode is called "Gourmet Clash", and the matches have Kirby and his opponent start at 35% damage, with food items appearing at the beginning of the match; all the opponents are characters who, like Kirby, are known for their large appetites (Pac-Man, Yoshi, Donkey Kong, Wario, King K. Rool, and King Dedede); the final boss is Marx.

Meta Knight

Meta Knight returns as a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, but he's now an unlockable fighter; like all other characters he can be unlocked by either having him join the party in World of Light, playing enough VS matches or clearing Classic mode with specific characters, specifically being the 38th character unlocked playing VS Matches, and the fourth character in Link's Classic Mode unlock tree.

His moveset is unchanged for the most part, but he gets a new Final Smash replacing Galaxia Darkness, Darkness Illusion: Meta Knight lifts his sword, summoning a lightning bolt that creates a cross-shaped burst; any opponent hit by the lightning is launched in the air, where Meta Knight slashes them multiple times, finishing with a powerful blow. This move is original to Smash, but the multiple slashes resemble his Upper Calibur attack from Kirby Star Allies.

Meta Knight retains the same alternate outfits from the previous game, but his Purple and Grey outfits have added details to more closely resemble Galacta Knight and Dark Meta Knight respectively; specifically the Purple outfit now has a vertical slit in the center of his mask, yellow markings on the mask resembling Galacta Knight's horns, and a pink Galaxia matching Galacta Knight's lance, while the Grey outfit has a scar over the left eye, and Galaxia turns silver with a blue gem, matching Dark Meta Knight's version.

His Classic Mode is called "Two Sides of the Same Coin" and all fights are free-for-alls against a fighter and their dark counterpart (Link and Dark Link, Pit and Dark Pit, Captain Falcon and Blood Falcon, Lucas and Claus, Samus and Dark Samus) with Round 6 being against two Meta Knights in the Galacta Knight and Dark Meta Knight outfits respectively. The final boss is a fight against Master Hand and Crazy Hand.

King Dedede

King Dedede is now an unlockable character, being the 30th character unlocked playing VS Matches, and the fourth character in Donkey Kong's Classic Mode unlock tree.

His moveset received only minor changes, but he receives a new Final Smash replacing Dedede Burst, Dede-Rush: King Dedede swings his hammer in front of him, and the first opponent hit is transported on a caged ring; here Dedede dons his Masked Dedede mask, shoots missles out of his hammer at the opponent, and then performs a powerful Hammer Swing at them, sending them flying. The location as well as Dedede's attacks are based on the fight against Masked Dedede from Kirby Super Star Ultra.
Additionally, King Dedede's Inhale move is now capable of inhaling projectiles and then spit them back out.

His new Boxing Ring state name, “Self-Made King”, is a reference to Kirby Star Allies in-game description for him during “Guest Star ???? Star Allies Go!”.

King Dedede's Classic Mode is called "Royal Rumble", and all his opponents are characters with royal titles. The final boss is Master Hand.

Marx

The final boss from the Milky Way Wishes subgame of Kirby Super Star appears as a boss in Adventure Mode: World of Light, as well as at the end of Classic Mode when playing as Kirby, Rosalina & Luma, or Inkling, while being the third boss for Sephiroth.

He initially appears in his base form, and then transforms in his boss form as the fight begins. Many of his attacks resemble attacks from his appearance in Kirby Super Star, including the Shooter Cutter, Marx Laser, Ice Ball, Seed Attack, Shadow Uppercut and Black Hole moves. He also has three original moves: one where he shoots black orbs out of his eyeballs, one where he retracts his wings and grows vein-like branching appendages, and one where he grows large compound eyes and shoots laser beams in multiple directions.

Stages

All the Kirby stages from previous games return and are available from the start. To distinguish the original Super Smash Bros. stage from the 3DS stage, the latter has been renamed Dream Land GB. The available stages are therefore: Dream Land, Green Greens, Fountain of Dreams, Halberd, Dream Land GB, and The Great Cave Offensive.

All stages return unchanged, save for graphical enhancements, but the alternate black and white looks for Dream Land GB is no longer present.

This game added the option to turn off Stage Hazards, which removes some of the more unpredictable elements from the stages, specifically preventing Whispy Woods from blowing wind and the Halberd Combo Cannon from shooting, removing falling blocks from Green Greens, removing mine carts and treasure chests from The Great Cave Offensive, and making all platforms in Fountain of Dreams stationary.

Items

All five items from the previous game return in Ultimate, but there also is a new item: Bomber.

All returning items are basically unchanged, but each character now has an exclusive facial animation when using the Superspicy Curry, and they no longer run constantly, allowing them to correctly perform tilt attacks.

Bomber

The recurring enemy from the Kirby series appears as a new item in Ultimate. After spawning it walks around the stage and it can be picked up and detonated by fighters, creating a large explosion that damages opponents. If left on its own it can fall off ledges and explode upon impact with the ground, similar to its behavior in Kirby games.

While inhaling it in the original series grants Kirby the Crash ability, in this game it simply causes him damage like any other explosive item.

Assist Trophies

Both Knuckle Joe and Nightmare return basically unchanged from the previous game as Assist Trophies, but there also is a new one:

Chef Kawasaki

A mid-boss from Kirby Super Star, Chef Kawasaki appears as an Assist Trophy in Ultimate. When summoned he attacks by throwing plates at opponents and can also grab them with a ladle to cook them, just like he does in his original appearance, but instead of cooking them in a frying pan, he puts them in a pot, which causes damage and then launches them and creates food, similar to Kirby's Cook Kirby Final Smash from Super Smash Bros. Brawl. This references the Cook Kirby ability being obtained by inhaling Chef Kawasaki in the original game.

Mii hats

The Meta Knight Mask for Mii Fighters returns from the previous game, but there now also is the Marx Hat, based on the hat worn by the boss the Milky Way Wishes subgame of Kirby Super Star, which also appears as a boss in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate itself.

Each one of these headgear items is unlockable as a random reward or by purchasing it from the in-game shop.

Spirits

The game features 59 spirits from the Kirby series. Most of them are unlockable in Spirits mode, either in Adventure Mode or the Spirits Board, where the player must win in a fight with specific conditions, simulating a fight against the spirit's character.
Alternative unlock criteria are indicated when available. Most spirits can also be obtained as random rewards or by purchasing them from the in-game shop; this criterion is omitted in the list.

Each spirit is usually represented by artwork from their original game, but the three fighter spirits also have alternate artwork from Super Smash Bros. Ultimate itself.

The game indicates each spirit's sub-series of origin; we also indicate the specific game that originated the artwork when necessary.

Music tracks

The game features 38 Kirby tracks, including 26 tracks returning from previous games, and 12 new ones (listed in bold). Most stage tracks from previous games return, the only exception being "Checker Knights" from Brawl, although the tracks "Green Greens", "Castle Lololo", "Float Islands", "Bubbly Clouds", and "Mt. Dedede" from Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS are now fused into one medley (the singular tracks are still present in the game, and are sometimes used in Spirit battles, but they're unavailable in the Sound Test).

32 of these tracks are available from the start, while 6 tracks need to be unlocked by either buying them from the in-game shop or receiving them as random rewards.

Unlike previous games, this time each track can be chosen to play on any Kirby stage. Update to Ver. 8.1.0 on August 4, 2020 allowed any of these tracks to be played on Battlefield, Small Battlefield, Big Battlefield, and Final Destination stages.

The two victory themes for Kirby characters also return unchanged from the previous game, but they're not available in the Sound Test and are therefore not listed here.

Other references

Adventure Mode: World of Light features an area based on the Gourmet Race from Kirby Super Star. The player can walk down various paths to collect food, choosing which direction to go at every intersection, but unable to go back. At the end of the track is a podium, and if the player collected between 3 and 6 pieces of food the Waddle Dee spirit appears on the third place, if the player collected between 7 and 10 pieces of food the Chef Kawasaki spirit appears on the second place, and if the player collected 11 pieces of food (the maximum amount available), King Dedede appears on the first place.

Additionally the Mysterious Dimension in World of Light features various questions regarding spirit characters in the game, and the player must choose the right one in order to progress. One of these questions is "Who among these spirits can Kirby not inhale?" and the available spirits are Whispy Woods, Mr. Frosty, Scarfy, Bugzzy, and Waddle Doo. This is the only question in the game with multiple right answers, as both Whispy Woods and Scarfy can't be inhaled by Kirby; each respective answer leads down a different path.
