'''Spark''' is a common [[Copy Ability]] in the ''[[Kirby (series)|Kirby'' series]]'' that debuted in ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]''. This ability allows Kirby to attack with electricity; he can obtain it by [[Inhale|inhaling]] foes such as [[Sparky]] or [[Dubior]], or by inhaling certain electric attacks. When Kirby gains the Spark ability, he typically dons a gold tiara with a large circular blue gem at the crest, topped by frizzy blue electric waves. | '''Spark''' is a common [[Copy Ability]] in the ''[[Kirby (series)|Kirby'' series]]'' that debuted in ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]''.

Starting with ''[[Kirby: Squeak Squad]]'', however, Spark started to gain attributes similar to [[Plasma]] (another electricity-based ability), allowing Kirby to build up an electric charge and release energy projectiles which can pass through walls and other solid objects. | ||
Spark was given even more of Plasma's moveset in ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land]]'', in addition to new attacks. This essentially combined the two abilities into one, akin to [[Burning]] and [[Fire]], or [[Ice]] and Freeze. Unlike those abilities, however, Plasma and Spark have never appeared in the same game; furthermore, Plasma returned with a few of its own distinct moves in ''[[Kirby Star Allies]]'', rather than being fully supplanted by Spark. Nonetheless, Plasma has appeared far less, making Spark the primary electric ability in the series. | Spark was given even more of Plasma's moveset in ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land]]'', in addition to new attacks.
