'''UFO''', also known as '''U.F.O.''', is a [[Copy Ability]] which transforms [[Kirby]] into flying saucer. It is typically obtained by finding the rare [[UFO (enemy)|UFO enemy]] which tends to appear in hidden rooms throughout the series. UFO first appeared in ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]'', and has since only made a handful of appearances throughout the series, a large number of which were just as cameos. When Kirby gains this power, his normal movement is replaced with the ability to hover rapidly through the air in any given direction, as he is no longer affected by gravity. He also gains access to four or five different primary attacks in the form of a chargeable projectile, as follows:

The UFO ability reappears in ''[[Kirby: Planet Robobot]]'', where it is an extremely rare ability as the [[UFO (enemy)|UFO enemy]] does not appear in the main stages. The ability is obtainable only by either scanning [[Kirby]]'s home-series [[amiibo]] into the game, or by [[100% completion|completing the game 100%]] to unlock the UFO enemy's appearance in the [[Copy Ability Room]]. To obtain this ability in [[The Arena]] and [[The True Arena]], amiibo must be used.

Here, UFO Kirby is as strong as he was in earlier games and gains 2 new moves: Unidentified Flight and Mystery Catch. Like in ''Kirby: Squeak Squad'', Kirby can keep this ability when he leaves a stage. The ability also allows Kirby to drop through platforms, unlike in previous games.

When in a cutscene, traversing the [[World Map]], traveling through a pipe, or using a [[Warp Star]], Kirby assumes his normal form, and wears the UFO top.

*In ''[[Kirby: Squeak Squad]]'', it is possible for [[Kirby]] to spit out [[Bubble (container)|bubbles]] and [[Star Bullet]]s while using a [[Copy Ability]]. In the case of U.F.O., his upper portion inflates when he is preparing to spit, and he inverts and starts to lose altitude, unable to move until he spits out his item. This is also the case with the [[Ghost]] Copy Ability, and is the only time when he cannot move while preparing to spit.
