===Friend Combo Attacks===
The three kinds of [[Curling]] (Clean, Ice, and Splash) are also considered Power Given/Received Type abilities.
In addition to the above, there are special one-time moves which the Star Allies can perform by combining specific abilities together, or by simply having the allies involved. These abilities are as follows:
 
*[[Chumbrella]] ([[Parasol]])
===Friend Throwing Type===
*[[Cook Potluck]] ([[Cook]] + Friends)
In Japanese, '''フレンズ投げタイプ'''. These are attacks where one character grabs another and then throws them, causing them to fly around the screen with incredible force and destroy stone and [[metal block]]s.
