m (→‎Kirby Super Star / Kirby Super Star Ultra: Added mention of KSSU, that was oddly missing in this whole section. And, honestly, this feels implied and that's in a way discarding the ability, as for every ability in KSS you cannot discard it as an ability star)

'''Cook''' is a [[Copy Ability]] which debuted in ''[[Kirby Super Star]]'' and later returned in ''[[Kirby & The Amazing Mirror]]'', ''[[Kirby Super Star Ultra]]'', and ''[[Kirby Star Allies]]''. It allows [[Kirby]] to force all enemies and projectiles present on screen into a large golden cauldron and cook them to produce [[food]] to replenish the [[Health|strength]] of himself and his friends. Cook is a single-use ability, typically provided by absorbing the defeated [[Mid-Boss|mid-boss]] [[Chef Kawasaki]], and it will automatically defeat any regular enemy on screen when it is used. In ''Kirby Star Allies'', the ability can also be used (harmlessly) on Kirby's allies, and will produce a specific food item based on what "ingredients" go in.
'''Cook''' (misnamed '''Chef''' in the ''[[Kirby: Triple Deluxe]]'' [[keychain]]) is an ability gained by absorbing two enemies at once or by swallowing [[Chef Kawasaki]] or [[Cookin]]. It allows [[Kirby]] to put all enemies and stars on screen into a pot and produce [[food]].<ref>{{cite|Cook your enemies into a nutritious and delicious snack.|''Kirby & The Amazing Mirror''|In-game description}}</ref>
==Game Apperances==
===''Kirby Super Star (Ultra)'' and ''Kirby & The Amazing Mirror''===
[[File:Kirbycook.png|thumb|left|Artwork of Cook Kirby from ''Kirby Super Star Ultra''.]]
[[Kirby]]'s physical appearance in ''[[Kirby Super Star Ultra]]'' changes only with the addition of a chef's hat. When activating the ability an animated scene begins with Kirby donning a chef hat and conjuring a large gold colored pot. The pot pulls all on screen enemies and stars in then Kirby seasons and stirs the now burning pot. Kirby will raise his arms indicating completion and as many snacks as things in the pot will burst out.


The Cook [[Copy Ability]] is one of the few powers that has a limited use<ref>{{cite|This trick only works once before it goes away.|''Kirby & The Amazing Mirror''|In-game description}}</ref> and affects all enemies on screen. After using the cook ability once, Kirby returns to his regular state. Kirby cannot produce a [[helper]] using this Copy Ability.
When Kirby gains the Cook ability, he is given a white chef's hat (with a small star on the side in ''Kirby Star Allies'') until he finishes using the ability. Cook Kirby is misnamed as '''Chef''' Kirby in the ''[[Kirby: Triple Deluxe]]'' [[keychain]] and the ''[[Kirby's Dream Buffet]]'' [[Character Treat]]. The actual "Chef" [[Kirby]] refers to his role in the [[Kirby Café]] merchandise, which is not the same as the Copy Ability.
===''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''===
 
Cook is Kirby's Final Smash in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', where nearby enemies get sucked up into a pot and are cooked. After he is done, the enemies sucked in and some health restoring food are released.

[[File:Peanut Plains KSSU Cook.png|thumb|200px|Kirby using Cook to draw in some enemies in ''Kirby Super Star Ultra'']]
Cook was introduced in ''[[Kirby Super Star]]'', and naturally reappears in its remake, ''[[Kirby Super Star Ultra]]'', where it is obtained from [[Chef Kawasaki]]. When the ability is activated, all other gameplay stops and an animated scene begins with Kirby conjuring a large gold colored pot. The pot pulls inside all enemies and their projectiles that are on-screen, then Kirby seasons and stirs the ingredients in the pot as the brazier underneath is lit. After a moment, Kirby will raise his arms indicating completion and a number of [[food]] items equal to the number of enemies that went in will pop out. After using the Cook ability once, Kirby returns to his regular state.  
 
Kirby cannot produce a [[helper]] using this Copy Ability.

In ''[[Kirby & The Amazing Mirror]]'', Cook is largely the same as in ''Kirby Super Star'', but is now obtained from [[Cookin]] and [[Prank]] (if he has a frying pan in his arsenal), being the first regular enemies in the series which provide the ability. Which food items come out of the cauldron now depend on the type of each potted enemy, as follows:

===''Kirby: Triple Deluxe''===
In ''[[Kirby: Triple Deluxe]]'', Cook Kirby appears as a collectible [[keychain]], using a sprite from ''Kirby Super Star Ultra''. However, it is misnamed as '''Chef''' Kirby.


Kirby's Final Smash is replaced by [[Ultra Sword]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4|Super Smash Bros. for Wii U/3DS]]'', however.
===''Kirby Star Allies''===
===''Kirby Star Allies''===
In ''[[Kirby Star Allies]]'', Cook ability returns in [[Kirby (series)|''Kirby'']] main-series.
[[File:Cook Kirby Humming Kirby Dance.mp3|thumb|right|Cook Kirby's humming of the Kirby Dance tune]]
[[File:KSA Supper Party.jpg|thumb|250px|Cook Kirby using [[Cook Potluck|Supper Party]], a move that has him shooting his friends out of the cooking pot as projectiles, in ''Kirby Star Allies'']]
Cook returns as an ability in ''[[Kirby Star Allies]]''. It is still a single use ability for [[Kirby]], but now he can charge his cook attack into a powerful move hitting everything on screen called Souper Supper. One notable addition to Cook in this game is that while Kirby is cooking, he hums to himself, humming one of two different short tunes based on his charge level; the longer charge uses the classic [[Kirby Dance (theme)|Kirby Dance]] melody, though Kirby's humming is a bit off-key, as appropriate for him.
 
{{main|Chef Kawasaki#Kirby Star Allies}}
Unlike in ''Kirby Super Star'' and ''Kirby Super Star Ultra'', Kirby can call Chef Kawasaki as an ally from the Cook ability. Unlike Kirby, Chef Kawasaki has unlimited use of the Cook Pot and Souper Supper attacks, though they do come with a cooldown. In addition, Kawasaki has other attacks such as using plates and his soup ladle as weapons.


Cook is still a single use ability for Kirby, but now Kirby can charge his cook attack into a powerful soup attack called 'Souper Supper'. Kirby hums to himself while cooking with this ability. He hums one of two different short tunes based on his charge level.

After he is done, the fighters sucked in and some health restoring food are released, with the fighters being shot out after taking heavy damage. This Final Smash is not particularly good for scoring KOs, but it is a good way for Kirby to recover health while damaging his opponents at the same time. It is also possible for Kirby to produce other items from the pot besides recovery food, such as [[Superspicy Curry]] or bombs.
 
Kirby's Final Smash has been replaced by [[Ultra Sword]] since ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U]]''.

{{Quote|That little Star Warrior...has a smoking topspin back hand!|[[Meta Knight (anime character)|Meta Knight]] regarding Cook Kirby's skill}}
In ''[[Kirby: Right Back at Ya!]]'', Cook [[Kirby (anime character)|Kirby]] makes a fairly large number of appearances, with the ability typically being obtained when Kirby inhales [[Chef Kawasaki (anime character)|Chef Kawasaki]]'s frying pan. Unlike in the games, Cook is a more fleshed-out and permanent power in the show, as Kirby gains the ability to conjure food from nothing, battle with his frying pan, make said pan grow giant to catch large [[monster]]s, and even deflect fire beams using it. Despite these additions, the ability's finishing blow still typically involves Kirby cooking his opponent into a delectable dish which, if not enjoyed by the other characters, is left as a snack for Kirby himself to gulp down.
 
Despite the ability's power, Cook Kirby is not always successful against his foes. The first example of Cook failing comes from the episode [[A Spice Odyssey]], where Cook Kirby is unable to overpower the chef monster [[Monsieur Goan]] and eventually loses the ability. The second failure is against [[Heavy Lobster]] in [[Combat Kirby]], as this robotic being cannot be cooked despite its resemblance to a culinary delicacy.

Cook is a Copy Ability which debuted in Kirby Super Star and later returned in Kirby & The Amazing Mirror, Kirby Super Star Ultra, and Kirby Star Allies. It allows Kirby to force all enemies and projectiles present on screen into a large golden cauldron and cook them to produce food to replenish the strength of himself and his friends. Cook is a single-use ability, typically provided by absorbing the defeated mid-boss Chef Kawasaki, and it will automatically defeat any regular enemy on screen when it is used. In Kirby Star Allies, the ability can also be used (harmlessly) on Kirby's allies, and will produce a specific food item based on what "ingredients" go in.

When Kirby gains the Cook ability, he is given a white chef's hat (with a small star on the side in Kirby Star Allies) until he finishes using the ability. Cook Kirby is misnamed as Chef Kirby in the Kirby: Triple Deluxe keychain and the Kirby's Dream Buffet Character Treat. The actual "Chef" Kirby refers to his role in the Kirby Café merchandise, which is not the same as the Copy Ability.

Kirby Super Star / Kirby Super Star Ultra[edit]

Kirby using Cook to draw in some enemies in Kirby Super Star Ultra

Cook was introduced in Kirby Super Star, and naturally reappears in its remake, Kirby Super Star Ultra, where it is obtained from Chef Kawasaki. When the ability is activated, all other gameplay stops and an animated scene begins with Kirby conjuring a large gold colored pot. The pot pulls inside all enemies and their projectiles that are on-screen, then Kirby seasons and stirs the ingredients in the pot as the brazier underneath is lit. After a moment, Kirby will raise his arms indicating completion and a number of food items equal to the number of enemies that went in will pop out. After using the Cook ability once, Kirby returns to his regular state.

Kirby cannot produce a helper using this Copy Ability.

Kirby & The Amazing Mirror[edit]

Kirby using Cook in Kirby & The Amazing Mirror

In Kirby & The Amazing Mirror, Cook is largely the same as in Kirby Super Star, but is now obtained from Cookin and Prank (if he has a frying pan in his arsenal), being the first regular enemies in the series which provide the ability. Which food items come out of the cauldron now depend on the type of each potted enemy, as follows:

Regular enemies (1 life bar)

  • KaTAM Cherries.png Cherry
  • KaTAM Hamburger.png Hamburger
  • KaTAM Nikuman.png Nikuman
  • KaTAM Omurice.png Omurice
  • KaTAM Onigiri.png Onigiri
  • KaTAM Pudding.png Pudding

Large enemies (3 life bars)

  • KaTAM Meat.png Meat on bone

Mid-Bosses (all life bars)

Kirby: Triple Deluxe[edit]

In Kirby: Triple Deluxe, Cook Kirby appears as a collectible keychain, using a sprite from Kirby Super Star Ultra. However, it is misnamed as Chef Kirby.

Kirby Star Allies[edit]

Cook Kirby's humming of the Kirby Dance tune
Cook Kirby using Supper Party, a move that has him shooting his friends out of the cooking pot as projectiles, in Kirby Star Allies

Cook returns as an ability in Kirby Star Allies. It is still a single use ability for Kirby, but now he can charge his cook attack into a powerful move hitting everything on screen called Souper Supper. One notable addition to Cook in this game is that while Kirby is cooking, he hums to himself, humming one of two different short tunes based on his charge level; the longer charge uses the classic Kirby Dance melody, though Kirby's humming is a bit off-key, as appropriate for him.

Main article: Chef Kawasaki#Kirby Star Allies

Unlike in Kirby Super Star and Kirby Super Star Ultra, Kirby can call Chef Kawasaki as an ally from the Cook ability. Unlike Kirby, Chef Kawasaki has unlimited use of the Cook Pot and Souper Supper attacks, though they do come with a cooldown. In addition, Kawasaki has other attacks such as using plates and his soup ladle as weapons.

Moveset[edit]

Cook moveset in Kirby Star Allies  
Skill Button Execution Description Damage
(Star Bullet=52)
Cook Pot
B
Kirby summons his cook pot to pull every common enemy and defeated body of a Mid-Boss on the screen into it. This has no effect on Bosses. Kirby is invincible during the whole cooking process.

When the cooking is finished, everything put into his pot will pop out as Food instead, and Kirby's Cook ability disappears. If there is nothing to put into the pot, Kirby won't use up his Cook ability.

N/A
Souper Supper
Hold B
In addition to cooking, Kirby launches a huge stream of hot soup from his pot. This is a fullscreen attack which can deal massive damage to even bosses. Same with Cook Pot, Kirby's Cook ability disappears when Souper Supper is used. Damage is based on the distance (close/far) and the number of Friends put into the pot:
  • 190/120 (0 Friends)
  • 210/140 (1 Friend)
  • 220/150 (2 Friends)
  • 230/160 (3 Friends)
  • Launched Friends deal 16 damage.

Damage is not affected by the multiplayer modifier.

Cook Potluck
Friends in vicinity during Cook Pot
A special Friend Ability with a single use for Kirby and infinite uses (with a cooldown timer) for Chef Kawasaki. Any Friends that hop into the pot during the Cook Pot move will be replaced with additional Food items. N/A
Supper Party
Friends in vicinity during Souper Supper
A more powerful variant of the previous Friend Ability. Friends that hop into the pot will drop additional Food items, but also launched out with great force as hot soup splashes everywhere.
  • 200 + 10 × # of Friends (close)
  • 130 + 10 × # of Friends (far)

Kirby's Dream Buffet[edit]

Super Smash Bros. Brawl[edit]

Cook Kirby is the Final Smash of Kirby in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, where nearby characters get sucked up into a pot and are cooked. After he is done, the fighters sucked in and some health restoring food are released, with the fighters being shot out after taking heavy damage. This Final Smash is not particularly good for scoring KOs, but it is a good way for Kirby to recover health while damaging his opponents at the same time. It is also possible for Kirby to produce other items from the pot besides recovery food, such as Superspicy Curry or bombs.

Kirby's Final Smash has been replaced by Ultra Sword since Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U.

In addition, Cook Kirby is represented by a sticker. When equipped, it adds +140 flinch resistance to any fighter.
