Summary[]
His first video game appearance was in 1992 for the Game Boy Color. Ever since then, he has been a worldwide phenomenon, earning him a spot on the roster in Smash Bros for the Nintendo 64 in 1999, and has remained one of the founding veterans for Smash ever since. His main gimmick involves devouring the opponent whole and copying their Neutral Special, which has gained him a memetic reputation of a serial killer who pulls the innocent into the bottomless black hole that is his stomach.

Notable Attacks/Techniques:
Neutral Special:
- Inhale - Kirby sucks up the opponent and traps them in his stomach. In this state, Kirby is much slower, and he can either carry the opponent around in his stomach, or choose to swallow them and copy their powers. Kirby can also steal the copy ability from another Kirby this way, assuming the other Kirby has already swallowed and copied somebody else.
- Ice Breath - Instead of inhaling, Kirby lets out a cloud of icy wind that freezes opponents solid upon making contact with it.
- Jumping Inhale - Same as his regular inhale, only Kirby leaps forward while inhaling.
Side Special:
- Hammer Flip - Similar to Dedede's Down B, Kirby wields a hammer that he can use to bash opponents. He can charge the attack to gradually increase its power, but he'll start to take recoil damage if he charges too long.
- Hammer Bash - Essentially the Brawl version of Kirby's Side B. It is a faster attack that cannot be charged.
- Giant Hammer - Same as Hammer Flip, only the hammer is much larger and much slower.
Up Special:
- Final Cutter - Kirby leaps up into the air with his cutter, performing an uppercut with it, followed by slamming all the way back down to the ground at high speed, creating a shockwave upon landing.
- Upper Cutter - Same as above, only Kirby doesn't slam back down, and the power of the uppercut is significantly higher.
- Wave Cutter - Not as much height is covered in the initial jump, but landing causes rocks to fly toward the opponent.
Down Special:
- Stone - Kirby transforms his body into a 100 ton weight. If performed into the air, Kirby will fall down rapidly and crush anybody below them.
- Grounding Stone - Same as above, only it takes more time for Kirby to transform, but takes less time to transform back, and grounded opponents will be buried in the ground from the sheer weight of the attack.
- Meteor Stone - Same as Stone, but it takes much longer for Kirby to transform back, and the opponent will be sent flying downward if they are hit in mid-air.
