| “ | Knowledgeable in medicine and the sciences, Doctor Kirby has a variety of quick and devastating attacks!” |
| — Flavor Text • Kirby: Planet Robobot |
Doctor is a Copy Ability introduced Kirby: Planet Robobot.
General Information
Doctor's attacks are based off of medical-related objects, such as pills, clipboards and syringes.
The healer class in the Team Kirby Clash sub-game, Doctor Healmore, has some attacks that are based off Doctor. Doctor Healmore's special move creates a healing puddle by pressing the B button. It has 3 stages of charge, and each Kirby can only heal from it once. His Dash+B attack has a different color palatte. Finally, all of the pills in the Doctor abilities have been changed into gems for the Doctor Healmore class. Oddly, the healing area move cannot be transferred via mouth-to-mouth another Kirby.
