'''Wing''' is a [[Copy Ability]] which debuted in ''[[Kirby Super Star]]''. It allows [[Kirby]] to fly quickly through the air, as well as performing several graceful wing attacks.
'''Wing''' is a [[Copy Ability]] which debuted in ''[[Kirby Super Star|{{KSS KFP}}]]''. It allows [[Kirby]] to fly quickly through the air, as well as performing several graceful wing maneuvers, dive-bombs, and charge attacks, along with the somewhat less graceful Feather Gun attack, though this attack can be used to cut [[rope]]s and other such obstacles. Typically provided by [[Birdon]], this ability grants Kirby a bright yellow feather headdress and red stripes in place of his normal cheek marks (though the stripes have not been seen since ''[[Kirby Super Star Ultra]]''). Wing Kirby's superior speed makes this ability the obvious choice for rushing through stages quickly in most games it appears in. It also was given the [[Power Effect|Bluster]] effect in ''[[Kirby Star Allies]]'', being able to impart allies' weapons with the element.


Kirby's visual appearance changes by adding a feather headdress and marks under his eyes (though the marks have not been seen since ''[[Kirby Super Star Ultra]]'').

===''Kirby's Return to Dream Land''===
===''{{KRtDL KAW}}''===
The Wing ability reappears in ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land]]'', where it is acquired from a Wing Copy Essence or from the [[Owgulf]] enemy. It is the final Copy Ability to be introduced in normal gameplay, as the first Owgulf does not appear until [[Nutty Noon]], although it can be acquired earlier on by [[Mix]]ing abilities or from the Wing Copy Essence found in [[Cookie Country]]'s [[HAL Room]]. Compared to ''Kirby Super Star'' and ''Kirby Super Star Ultra'', Wing's attacks are stronger and, like many Copy Abilities in ''Kirby's Return to Dream Land'', many of its moves render Kirby invulnerable to a greater degree than in previous games.
