Backdrop has only appeared in two games. Suplex, a similar ability, is considered its replacement because it comes from the same enemy and is basically a more advanced version of the ability. |

Backdrop (spelled Back Drop in Kirby's Adventure) is one of Kirby's Copy Abilities.
General Information
Backdrop has only appeared in Kirby's Adventure and its remake, Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land to date. With this ability, Kirby is able to grab onto enemies by inhaling (or, in the GBA remake, a lunging dash) and perform various powerful moves on them using the +Control Pad and jump button. Backdrop can also be used to throw projectiles, such as Sir Kibble's cutters or Shotzo's bullets.
Backdrop has a near-identical function as Suplex, though its similarity to Suplex was increased when Backdrop appeared in Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land. Backdrop's hat (which has appeared only in Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land), a red headband, is also very similar to that of the Fighter ability, the only difference being that Backdrop's headband is slightly darker in color than Fighter's.
Kirby's various directional throws in the Super Smash Bros. series are mostly based on the moves he can perform with Backdrop and Suplex. Backdrop's main weakness is the fact that, in some games, Kirby may jump off stage and lose a stock while executing the throw.
Backdrop has only appeared in two games. Suplex, a similar ability, is considered its replacement because it comes from the same enemy and is basically a more advanced version of the ability.
