Light

"Brighten those dark corners! *can only be used once"

- Light's Flavour Text

Light is a unique Copy Ability of Kirby's in several respects, Light carries several rare titles with it. The ability first appeared in Kirby's Adventure, and since then has appeared only in the remake, Nightmare in Dream Land. Aside from its rare appearance in the series, the ability rarely appears within this game, too, and is only obtainable in a handful of stages. To further set off this power from others, it is one of the few limited use abilities, like Crash, having only a single discharge.

This power was also the first and so far only ability to be non-offensive and purely utilitarian. No damage is caused in using Light. While the Light ability only appears in two games, its function has been reused. Spark, typically when used in conjunction with Kine, can illuminate a room in much the same way and you get a similar effect when you combine spark and bomb in Kirby 64. In Kirby Squeak Squad, Kirby can use an ability like Fire to light candles to light an entire room until the flame goes out.
