After defeating all four phases of the first form, the screen will slowly go white until entering the next area, a small bridge being the platform to fight. In the middle, a small object much like a sun or star starts growing until it fills half the screen. This is actually what Dark Mind became. The fight begins, and if Kirby does not have the Master sword, [[Shadow Kirby]] will eventually throw it into battle (although Shadow Kirby briefly appears even if Kirby has the sword). During the start of battle, Dark Mind will spawn enemies, use mirrors to shoot small, thin lasers, swing the mirrors, or move around the screen. When only 25% of his health points are left, Dark Mind starts using more moves that are more difficult to dodge. Dark Mind may flip the screen upside down, shoot a huge laser, and moving the mirrors in a complex pattern. Dark Mind can shoot a huge laser in increments or slowly shoot a continuous laser across the screen, which may take two health points instead of one.
Once Dark Mind's first form is finally defeated after its fourth battle, Dark Mind would appear to be seemingly done for as he explodes in a spectacular fashion while the screen fades to white. However, it instead fades to an ominous arena featuring a scrolling orange sky, and a fiery orange eye would appear to pulsate in the background. This turns out to be Dark Mind's second form as he grows giant and begins attacking the Kirbys once again. [[Shadow Kirby]] will appear to toss Meta Knight's sword to Kirby for the [[Master]] ability, if he had lost it in the prior battle or midway through this battle.
 
Kirby must attempt to attack Dark Mind by using Master or any other copy abilities. Attacking his eye only deals small damage and stuns the boss temporarily, but the mirrors that Dark Mind uses in most of his attacks also act as his weak spots and deal large damage to the boss, should Kirby attack them. Kirby must take extra caution when attacking these mirrors, as they may sometimes shatter and shoot out [[Shooter Cutter|flying cutters]] that can damage him.
 
While Kirby cannot simply take damage if he comes in contact in Dark Mind, his mirrors and other attacks are instead the ones that can actually hurt Kirby.
 
Like his first form, Dark Mind's second form's attacks will become more elaborate and complex to dodge as his health is continuously depleted, with some attacks only appearing after a certain threshold of health has passed. The following table lists all of Dark Mind's attacks when he is fought in his second form:

|-
! '''Attack'''
! '''Description'''
! '''Variations'''
! '''Notes'''
|-
| '''Mirror Spin'''
|Dark Mind will stay in one place, then spin its mirrors around in an attempt to hit Kirby. These mirrors can also be hit with Kirby's attacks to damage Dark Mind.
|
|
|-
| '''Shooter Cutter'''
|If a mirror is shattered during any attack that makes use of Dark Mind's mirrors, it may also release four yellow cutters that fly out in intercardinal directions.
|
|
|-
| '''Laser Rebound'''
|Dark Mind will position its mirrors a few times across the corners of the stage, then shoot a single laser that rebounds off those mirrors.
|As the fight progresses, he may increase how many times the laser may ricochet across the arena, by constantly repositioning these mirrors.
|
|-
| '''Mirror Sweep'''
|Dark Mind will lower itself down to the ground, then move across the stage while spinning its mirrors to attempt to sweep the Kirbys.
|In later parts of the fight, there will also be a variation of this move where Dark Mind will also perform this move in the air.
|
|-
| '''Mirror Zoom'''
|Dark Mind's mirrors will zoom across the arena from the sides, attempting to hit Kirby. This is usually indicated by the mirrors exiting towards the sides off-screen. The last mirror that zooms through the arena will summon various enemies containing Copy Abilities and make them disappear afterward should Kirby not deal with them immediately.
|A variation of this attack features two mirrors zooming in onto Kirby in various curved trajectories.
|The possible enemies that can be summoned with this attack include the following:
*[[Sir Kibble]]
*[[Waddle Doo]]
*[[Laser Ball]]
*[[Parasol Waddle Doo]]
*[[Wheelie]]
*[[Hot Head]]
*[[Foley]]
*[[Boxin]]
*[[Sparky]]
*[[Pengy]]
*[[UFO]] (very rare)
|-
| '''Mirror Dance'''
|Starting at roughly 75% of his remaining health, Dark Mind will move up or down while making its mirrors dance in a curved, irregular but symmetrical path.
|Another variation of this attack also appears where Dark Mind moves to a side of the arena and perform this attack in one place.
|The orientation of where his eye faces is also a good indicator of where this attack may go.
|-
| '''Laser Sweep '''
|Dark Mind shoots a big, white vertical laser beam that sweeps across the arena. Once the attack ends, it may leave [[Drop Star]]s in its wake.
|A variation of this attack is also used starting in the third battle, which also has Dark Mind teleporting to the bottom-left and bottom-right corners to add two more stars to the attack.
|Notably, this is among the few attacks that can damage any of the Kirbys by two health points.
|-
| '''Laser Quick Shot'''
|Dark Mind shoots quick rounds of laser beams from his eye across several parts of the arena, usually targeting any nearby players.
|
|This is also among the few attacks that can damage any of the Kirbys by two health points.
|-
| '''Screen Bomb'''
|A spherical bomb with a checkerboard pattern in the middle is dropped by Dark Mind before he temporarily disappears off the arena. If the bomb is not [[Inhale|Super Inhaled]] or destroyed in time, it will float towards the center of the screen, darken the entire arena, and deal unavoidable damage.
|
|Like before, [[Stone]] Kirby does not take damage if he is still in his stone form while the bomb explodes.<br>Swallowing the bomb after Super Inhaling it will give the [[Crash]] ability.
