Friend Throw is a Friend Ability present in Kirby Star Allies. To perform it, all Kirby has to do is approach one of his Friends with the Beetle, Fighter, or Suplex abilities equipped and have the unknown reader hold up on the analog stick (or d-pad) until a friend jumps into Kirby's hand. Doing so correctly, Kirby will pick up his friend and toss them, causing the friend to ricochet off of walls and damage any enemies in the way for a few seconds. This ability is capable of breaking Metal Blocks and stone blocks. Gooey can also use this ability.

While in the state of being thrown, the friend is invulnerable to most forms of damage. When using Beetle to perform this move, the thrower can also move around before tossing.
