| ===Combination and enhanced Copy Abilities=== | | ===Special Abilities=== |
| In addition to standard abilities, some titles allow Kirby to fuse or enhance his abilities in various ways, whether that be by pairing abilities with certain allies or objects, combining two attacks together, or directly upgrading abilities. The following is a brief overview of each category of combination and/or enhanced abilities, with details on the respective main articles: | | In addition to standard abilities, most titles feature special kinds of abilities that differ from regular copy abilities in various ways. While some are much more closely related to copy abilities than others, all of the following are officially grouped into a big category called "Special Ability" in the official [[Kirby Portal]] website.<ref>[https://www.kirby.jp/ability/ Kirby Portal page on Copy Abilities]</ref> Some Special Abilities based on vehicles fall under a sub-category called メカ (''Mecha''), while all others fall under a sub-category simply called 能力 (''Ability'').

| |When Kirby has a [[Wheelie]] [[Helper]] on his team, he can hop onto the Wheelie to form this combination ability, similar to a [[Piggyback]] in more recent games. Using this power allows Kirby to ride much faster than he could with the [[Wheel]] ability on its own.
| |
| |This ability is accessible anywhere where Wheelie can be obtained, but is specifically used for the escape sequence at the end of [[Revenge of Meta Knight]].
| |
| |Kirby is able to keep his current Copy Ability when mounting Wheelie, though he cannot use it until getting off again. | |

| |
| |Exclusively in ''[[Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards]]'', Kirby is able to combine two [[Ability Star]]s together to form a [[Power Combo]]. This creates an all-new ability that combines elements from the two base abilities into a single attack. Some of the combinations are more powerful than others, and some create quite odd results.

| |In ''[[Kirby Star Allies]]'', Kirby and his [[Helper|allies]] can combine their attacks together to create new combination moves.

| ===Special abilities and Last Battle Abilities===

| ===Other===
| |
| The following are miscellaneous abilities which do not fit into the other categories:
| |
| *'''[[Mix]]''' - This occurs whenever Kirby swallows two or more enemies which provide abilities, and grants him a new ability from a roulette.
| |
| *'''[[Yarn Transformation]]''' - Aside from the [[Metamortex]] transformations, Yarn Kirby has access to a number of smaller transformations which act as part of his moveset.
| |
| *'''[[Ravel Ability|Ravel Abilities]]''' - These are six special powers in ''[[Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn]]'' which function almost identically to Copy Abilities in the main series.
| |
| *Four heroic roles based on existing Copy Abilities are used in the ''Kirby Clash'' series of games. These are:
| |
| **'''[[Sword Hero]]'''
| |
| **'''[[Hammer Lord]]'''
| |
| **'''[[Doctor Healmore]]'''
| |
| **'''[[Beam Mage]]'''
| |
| *'''[[Copy Food]]''' - Kirby obtains abilities in ''[[Kirby's Dream Buffet]]'' through Copy Food given from [[Food Box]]es. When used, in addition to gaining an ability for a limited time, Kirby takes the form of a food representing the ability.
| |
| *'''Block''' - This Copy Ability was planned for inclusion in ''[[Kirby: Squeak Squad]]'', but was cut out of the final game. It looks similar to the [[Triple Star]] ability.
