'''Mini''' is a [[Copy Ability]] | {{quote|Shrink down to tiny size so you can fit through tight passageways.|''Kirby & The Amazing Mirror'' flavor text}} | ||
'''Mini''' is a [[Copy Ability]] only available in ''[[Kirby & The Amazing Mirror]]'' which causes [[Kirby]] to shrink down to a smaller size, allowing him to fit through tight passageways. It is among the rarest abilities in the game, only being obtainable from [[Minny]], an enemy primarily found in [[Mustard Mountain]] in very small numbers. Unlike most other abilities, it is not part of the [[Mix|ability roulette]] triggered by swallowing two ability-yielding enemies at once and cannot be found as a [[Copy Essence]] in the ability room unlocked after pressing every [[Big Switch]]. | |||
So far, Mini has only appeared as a proper Copy Ability in ''Kirby & The Amazing Mirror'' (though an unused version can be found in the data of ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]''). Mini Kirby's last appearance was in ''[[Kirby: Triple Deluxe]]'', where a [[keychain]] of his sprite could be collected. Appropriately, this is the smallest keychain in that game. | So far, Mini has only appeared as a proper Copy Ability in ''Kirby & The Amazing Mirror'' (though an unused version can be found in the data of ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]'').

Mini is a unique ability in that it does not grant Kirby any new ways of attacking, but instead causes him to shrink to roughly 1/4 his normal size for as long as he possesses it, enabling him to walk through passages that were previously inaccessible. However, it also disables all of Kirby's powers, other than walking, [[jump]]ing, [[dash]]ing and [[crouch]]ing, while it lasts; this means that Kirby cannot [[hover]], [[slide]], [[inhale]] or use his [[Cell Phone]] while in Mini form. As such, Mini cannot be used to effectively battle enemies. | Mini is a unique ability in that it does not grant Kirby any new ways of attacking, but instead causes him to shrink to roughly 1/4 his normal size for as long as he possesses it, enabling him to walk through passages that were previously inaccessible.

[[File:V6 Illustration 5.png|thumb|180px|[[Kirby (novel character)|Kirby]] accidentally copies the Mini ability in ''[[Kirby's Labyrinth Rescue!]]''.]] | |||
In the ''Kirby'' novel series, the Mini ability appears in ''Kirby's Labyrinth Rescue!'', where Kirby accidentally inhales a Minny while eating an apple, causing him to mistakenly copy the Mini ability from it. Due to Kirby's small size, he gets picked up by [[King Dedede (novel character)|King Dedede]] who blows Mini Kirby away with his nose. After being blown away into a tree, Mini Kirby finds a small hole in the roots of the tree. He is easily able to fit inside the hole because of his miniature size which helps him find a [[Mirror Door]] inside of a cave. Once Kirby enters the Mirror Door, he loses the ability and returns to normal. | |||
Near the end of the novel, during the battle against Magolor, Waddle Dee gives Kirby a Minny so he can get the Mini ability once more. This time, Kirby uses his small size to avoid detection from the manipulative mage and put himself in a position so he can easily deal the finishing blow with a [[Fighter|different copy ability]] also provided by Waddle Dee. | |||
