Suplex is a Copy Ability primarily which allows Kirby to grab and toss his foes in several different ways to defeat them. This ability is provided by Mid-Bosses Bugzzy, Jukid, and Phan Phan, though Bugzzy is the primary representative of the ability. When Kirby obtains this ability, he gains a blue headband similar to the red band of the Fighter ability, and gains a darker tone to his skin in [[Kirby Super Star|Template:KSS KFP]] and Kirby Super Star Ultra. In Kirby Star Allies, Kirby keeps his normal skin tone, but the headband is changed to resemble a wrestling belt.

Kirby can also obtain the Suplex ability through a Copy Essence Deluxe. With the Suplex ability equipped, Kirby can create Bugzzy as a helper. With this ability Kirby gets darker skin and a blue headband, similar to that of the Fighter ability.

Trivia

  • Suplex and Plasma were the only 3D-debuting returning abilities which did not receive any new official artwork in Kirby Star Allies. The website reuses their Kirby Super Star Ultra artwork.
  • The Wrestler ability is heavily based off of the Suplex ability and the two share many of the same or similar techniques.
