This isn't any yo-yo! Swing up and down, or break-spin! Try 'em all to look cool!

— Super Star Ultra quote

Yo-yo is an ability that can be obtained by inhaling Gim. It debuted in Kirby Super Star and likewise, it was also a part of its remake Kirby Super Star Ultra. The abiliy allows Kirby to ultilize a bright red yo-yo to smack around enemies from a safe distance, comparable to the Beam ability. The yo-yo could also pass through walls and floors, therefore it is sometimes used to activate switches to solve puzzles.

Kirby can also obtain the Yo-yo ability through Copy Essence Deluxes. With the yo-yo equipped, Kirby can create Gim as a helper. Kirby's visual appearance only changes by the addition of a backwards ballcap.

Uses

Trivia

• Kirby's backwards cap is more than likely a reference to the Earthbound RPG (known as Mother 2 in Japan). In the game, the yo-yo is a weapon several characters can equip, and the main character, Ness, wears a similar backwards cap. HAL had also done some work on Earthbound as well.
• Kirby's appearance is recolored into the Wheel and Paint abilities.
• Oddly enough, this ability could be obtained by inhaling one of Combo Cannon's cannonballs. This was changed in Kirby Super Star Ultra, where instead Kirby recieved Bomb ability from them.
