Balloon is a Copy Ability in the Kirby series, debuting in Kirby: Canvas Curse.
Games
Kirby: Canvas Curse
Ballon focuses on inflating Kirby to make him bigger and bouncier. Balloon doesn't have any method of damaging enemies normally, but popping does stun all enemies on screen; it seems to act as a replacement for Kirby's Hover technique, which is not available in this game. Balloon is obtained from the Bloon enemy.
Kirby has a similar form when gathering all of the Sparkling Stars, but this is not the same.
Techniques
| Move | Controls | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Inflate | Tap with the stylus | Kirby inflates and rises upward slightly. Kirby now bounces along surfaces. |
| Pop | Tap with the stylus after using Inflate three times. | Kirby explodes and stuns enemies, returning to his Ball form. |
