Copy Abilities (Super Smash Bros. series)

When Kirby uses his inhale Special move on other Smash bros combatants, he can swallow them and copy their abilities. Normally this is the Standard Special Move of the victim.

Trivia

 * In Super Smash Bros. Melee and Brawl, when performing Jigglypuff's Rollout, he will always exclaim "Purin!" (Jigglypuff's Japanese name) no matter which language the game is set to.
 * Although Kirby Inhales and Swallows an adult Zelda, the hat given to him upon doing so is taken from Zelda's younger incarnation from Ocarina of Time.
 * When Kirby gets Donkey Kong's ability, the suit he wears makes him look like a furry Waddle Dee.
 * Various abilities makes him look like he has his in-game abilities. The most obvious ones are Link's cap for Sword and the Ice Climbers' parka for Freeze.
 * FireComparison.jpg Some abilities, like Bowser's, have abilities similar to moves in the game, and sometimes does poses for them, too. Bowser's Fire Breath is like Kirby's Fire ability.
 * When Kirby copies Ness and uses his PK Flash, he specifically (and clearly) says PK Flash, rather than copying Ness's accent. This is somewhat ironic, as they both share the same voice actor.
 * Kirby wears Ness's cap backwards as if he had the Yo-Yo ability (while Ness wears his baseball cap to the side).
 * When Kirby copies Snake and throws a Grenade, he will wince and cover his "ears" if the grenade is thrown back at him, just like Snake does.
 * Unlike Mr. Game &amp; Watch, when Kirby inhales him and uses his Chef ability, both he, and the Pan he uses are in 3-D, compared to the 2D version that Mr. Game &amp; Watch has.
 * The ability given to him by inhaling Olimar is the only ability that combines two special moves instead of one, possibly due to the game mechanics of Olimar.
 * Kirby's Copy Ability he has swallowed normally doesn't appear when he uses his final smash, Some abilities that the Cook Hat doesn't cover up can still be seen (i.e. ROB Visor, Mr. G&amp;W ability, Snake's Beard, etc). This had led to funny snapshots.  The most popular one is the "Bearded Chef".
 * Although Wario has two costumes in Brawl (Biker and Plumber) inhaling either of them will give Kirby a biker helmet.
