Flare Beam is a Super Ability in Kirby's Return to Dream Land and its remake, Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe. It is an extremely powerful variation of the Beam Copy Ability, and is obtained by swallowing a Super Waddle Doo.

Kirby's appearance changes to an exaggerated version of his Beam transformation; Kirby dons a very large jester hat with stars at the ends and a star emblem in the front of the hat.

Moveset[edit]

With Flare Beam, Kirby possesses the ability to control a large beam ball of electricity to destroy blocks and enemies, as well as activate special star blocks that help open up a path once all of those blocks are activated.

However, guiding the electric ball is not as easy as it sounds due to its large momentum. Pressing the jump button (or the attack button in the remake) at any time during Flare Beam cancels the current attack, which is important in order to save the limited use time of the Super Ability.

In addition, Magolor Soul in Extra Mode and the Wii version's True Arena summons another electric ball of the same size so there will be two Flare Beams bouncing off the stage and trying to ram Kirby in unison. The True Arena in Deluxe ups that number to three.
