“ | Midair spins and shuttle loops! Spread your wings and fly, little Kirby! Doesn't that feel good? | ” | — Super Star Ultra quote |
Wing is a Copy Ability which debuted in Kirby Super Star. It allows Kirby to fly quickly through the air, as well as performing several graceful wing attacks.
Kirby's visual appearance changes by adding a feather headdress and marks under his eyes (though the marks have not been seen since Kirby Super Star Ultra).
Game appearances
Kirby Super Star (Ultra)
Kirby obtains the Wing ability through the enemy Birdon or a Copy Essence. With the Wing ability equipped, Kirby can create Birdon as a helper in Kirby Super Star and Kirby Super Star Ultra.

Kirby's Return to Dream Land
The Wing ability reappears in Kirby's Return to Dream Land, where it is acquired from a Wing Copy Essence or from the Owgulf enemy. It is the final Copy Ability to be introduced in normal gameplay, as the first Owgulf does not appear until Nutty Noon, although it can be acquired earlier on by Mixing abilities or from the Wing Copy Essence found in Cookie Country's HAL Room. Compared to Kirby Super Star and Kirby Super Star Ultra, Wing's attacks are stronger and, like many Copy Abilities in Kirby's Return to Dream Land, many of its moves render Kirby invulnerable to a greater degree than in previous games.

Wing returns in this title, along with Birdon as a Friend Helper. Wing can imbue other abilities with the Bluster element.
Super Smash Bros. series trophy information
Super Smash Bros. Brawl
"Kirby when he inhales a winged enemy and copies its flying ability. This ability can be used to proceed through strong winds that would otherwise be too tough to overcome. Wing Kirby can also perform a plethora of attack moves, such as the Bomber Heading, where Kirby dive-bombs onto enemy heads."
Super Smash Bros. for Wii U
"Kirby doesn't need to copy abilities to bop through the air, but actually having wings gives his aerial skills a definite boost. They even let him use some extra attacks, like the acrobatic Shuttle Loop and the mighty Condor Head. He can also fire at foes with his Feather Gun! Thought Kirby was just a squishy puffball? Surprise!"
