General Information
Suplex is a copy ability of Kirby's that has appeared only in Kirby Super Star and Kirby Super Star Ultra. Suplex Kirby looks like Throw Kirby, but attacks like Backdrop Kirby.

Suplex is one of the hardest abilities to obtain, as it cannot be found by inhaling a common enemy, but only from certain mini-bosses. It is obtained from Bugzzy, Jukid, or occasionally Phan Phan, and Bugzzy is the helper of Suplex. It features Kirby dashing forward and grabbing an enemy he bumps to, and delivering a massive blow to it. Also, any objects in the way of any throw from the Suplex ability will instantly be destroyed or damaged. Almost all of Suplex's moves are grabs and can only be performed to an enemy, certain boss projectiles, stars, and a defeated mini-boss, but not to bosses. Pinpoint Kick is actually Suplex's only move that isn't a grab, making it effective against bosses and mini-bosses, but Kirby can also throw projectiles or stars on them to deal damage.

Trivia

 * Many of Suplex's moves, particularly the forwards and backwards throws and the Fury Stomp are used when Kirby throws an enemy in the Super Smash Bros. games. The only exception is his up throw, which seems to be based on Ninja's Throw.
 * Suplex's name is ordained from a pro-wrestling move that shares the name.
