{{About|UFO as a Copy Ability|other uses|[[UFO (disambiguation)]]}}
'''UFO''', also known as '''U.F.O.''', is a [[Copy Ability]] which transforms [[Kirby]] into a flying saucer. It is typically obtained by finding the rare [[UFO (enemy)|UFO enemy]] which tends to appear in hidden rooms throughout the series. UFO first appeared in ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]'', and has since only made a handful of appearances throughout the series, a large number of which were just as cameos. When Kirby gains this power, his normal movement is replaced with the ability to hover rapidly through the air in any given direction, as he is no longer affected by gravity. He also gains access to four or five different primary attacks in the form of a chargeable projectile, as follows:
*An uncharged attack fires a beam whip energy chain, similar to the [[Beam]] ability.
*A short charge will fire a small laser beam that can bounce off slopes, similar to the [[Laser]] ability.
*A medium charged attack will fire a [[Star Bullet]] (''Kirby's Adventure'') / Heat Beam (''[[Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land]]'' onward).
*A fully charged attack will fire a Blaster Bullet (''Kirby's Adventure'') / Piercing Heat Beam that can pierce through enemies (''Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land'' onward).
*In ''[[Kirby: Planet Robobot]]'', charging for even longer releases the Heat Cannon, which fires a large energy glob and three smaller projectiles (one of which fires backwards) which spread outward from the main blast. This attack is similar to the [[Robobot Armor|Robobot]] [[Jet Mode]]'s "Missile Spread" attack.


'''U.F.O.''' is a [[Copy Ability]] which allows [[Kirby]] to pilot a flying saucer. It is obtained by finding the rare [[UFO|UFO enemy]] which lurks in hidden rooms throughout the series.
UFO Kirby can move through [[Water (environment)|water]] and will not revert to his regular form with goggles like with other abilities. UFO Kirby cannot drop through [[thin floor]]s or use [[ladder]]s except in ''[[Kirby: Planet Robobot]]''.


==Overview==
==Game appearances==
The U.F.O. ability usually has four ways of attacks which are ''selected'' in relation to the charge time.

[[File:KA UFO screenshot.png|thumb|left|150px|Kirby using the UFO ability in ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]''.]]
The U.F.O. ability first appeared in ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]''. It can be obtained by swallowing the [[UFO (enemy)|UFO]] who appears only once in certain areas, usually hidden rooms. When Kirby has this ability, he transforms into a flying saucer and can fly freely around in the air without being affected by gravity. It fires [[Star Bullet]]s / Blaster Bullets with medium/max charge in this game. The U.F.O. Blaster Bullets can destroy [[metal block]]s but cannot travel through walls. Kirby will lose the U.F.O. ability once he returns to the stage hub. However, this can be circumvented using certain [[Glitches in Kirby's Adventure|glitches]].


==Game Appearances==
In the remake ''[[Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land]]'', the U.F.O. ability fires Heat Beams / Piercing Heat Beams instead with medium/max charge, which has been settled in later games. Despite the changes in attacks, they do the same [[damage]] in the remake. The glitch allowing the player to keep the U.F.O. ability is also removed in the remake.

''[[Kirby's Adventure]]'' marked the debut of this ability, along with Copy Abilities in general. It can be obtained by swallowing the [[UFO|UFO enemy]] who appears only once in certain areas, usually hidden rooms. When Kirby has this ability, he transforms into a flying saucer and can fly freely around in the air without being affected by gravity. It fires [[Star Bullet]]s / Blaster Bullets with medium/max charge in the debut. The U.F.O. Blaster Bullets can destroy [[Metal Block]]s but cannot travel through walls. Kirby cannot take this ability out of a stage, however, and will lose it once he returns to the stage hub. However, this can be circumvented using certain [[Glitches in Kirby's Adventure|glitches]].

[[File:KDC Course 7 Hole 1 screenshot 02.png|thumb|150px|U.F.O. Kirby crossing a gap in ''[[Kirby's Dream Course]]'']]
The U.F.O. ability reappears in ''[[Kirby's Dream Course]]''. It is gained by defeating the UFO enemy. When used, Kirby can freely fly around laterally while maintaining his height off the ground, but will be forced to come down after 10 seconds. The ability will be canceled early if B is pressed or if Kirby hits a bumper or wall.
 
Notably, while Kirby can float [[Bottomless pit|OB]] and fly off cliffs while using this ability, he will still move up and down slopes like normal if he is touching them. Additionally, the speed at which the UFO travels is dependent on how quickly Kirby was moving prior to transforming.


===''Kirby & The Amazing Mirror''===
===''Kirby & The Amazing Mirror''===
In ''[[Kirby & The Amazing Mirror]]'', the U.F.O. ability uses the same assets from ''[[Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land]]'' and thus functions mostly the same as its previous appearance.

In ''[[Kirby: Squeak Squad]]'', the U.F.O. ability again uses the same assets from ''[[Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land]]''. Now Kirby can keep this ability when he leaves a stage. However, the ability's other attacks become considerably weaker and the Heat Beams lose the fire element in this title.

However, the ability's other attacks become considerably weaker and the Heat Beams lose the fire element in this title. When fighting [[Doc]], he may occasionally drop his own personal UFO when stunned, which Kirby can inhale to gain the ability.


The U.F.O. [[Ability Scroll]] gives the ability a new attack called Star Guard, which automatically creates a rotating electric orb around U.F.O. Kirby.

===''Kirby: Triple Deluxe''===
UFO Kirby ([[Sprite|dot sprite]] from ''Kirby's Adventure'') appears as a [[keychain]] in ''[[Kirby: Triple Deluxe]]''.
===''Kirby Fighters Deluxe'' and ''Kirby Fighters 2''===
In ''[[Kirby Fighters Deluxe]]'' and its sequel ''[[Kirby Fighters 2]]'', UFO Kirby is one of the enemies that can appear (in his original 8-bit form) on the [[Butter Building (Battle Stage)|Butter Building]] [[Battle Stage]]. Here, he will fly in and deposit a [[food]] item in the middle of the stage, either atop the [[thin floor]] or on the ground below. He will deal 12 damage to fighters on contact, and can be interrupted if defeated.


===''Kirby: Planet Robobot''===
===''Kirby: Planet Robobot''===
In ''[[Kirby: Planet Robobot]]'', U.F.O. is an extremely rare ability as the [[UFO|UFO enemy]] doesn't appear in the main stages. The ability is obtainable only by either scanning [[Kirby]]'s [[amiibo]] (for ''Kirby: Planet Robobot'') into the game, or by [[100% Completion|completing the game 100%]] to unlock the UFO enemy's appearance in the [[Copy Ability Testing Area]]. To obtain this ability in [[The Arena]] and [[The True Arena]], amiibo must be used.

To obtain this ability in [[The Arena]] and [[The True Arena]], amiibo must be used.


Here, U.F.O. Kirby has regained the great firepower from earlier games and updated his moveset. Like in ''[[Kirby: Squeak Squad]]'', Kirby can keep this ability when he leaves a stage. The ability also allows Kirby to drop through platforms, unlike older versions.

==Trivia==
*In ''[[Kirby: Squeak Squad]]'', it is possible for [[Kirby]] to spit out [[Bubble (container)|bubbles]] and [[Star Bullet]]s while using a [[Copy Ability]]. In the case of U.F.O, his upper portion inflates when he is preparing to spit, and he inverts and starts to lose altitude, unable to move until he spits out his item. This is the only time when he cannot move while preparing to spit.

This article is about UFO as a Copy Ability. For other uses, see UFO (disambiguation).

UFO, also known as U.F.O., is a Copy Ability which transforms Kirby into a flying saucer. It is typically obtained by finding the rare UFO enemy which tends to appear in hidden rooms throughout the series. UFO first appeared in Kirby's Adventure, and has since only made a handful of appearances throughout the series, a large number of which were just as cameos. When Kirby gains this power, his normal movement is replaced with the ability to hover rapidly through the air in any given direction, as he is no longer affected by gravity. He also gains access to four or five different primary attacks in the form of a chargeable projectile, as follows:

  • An uncharged attack fires a beam whip energy chain, similar to the Beam ability.
  • A short charge will fire a small laser beam that can bounce off slopes, similar to the Laser ability.
  • A medium charged attack will fire a Star Bullet (Kirby's Adventure) / Heat Beam (Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land onward).
  • A fully charged attack will fire a Blaster Bullet (Kirby's Adventure) / Piercing Heat Beam that can pierce through enemies (Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land onward).
  • In Kirby: Planet Robobot, charging for even longer releases the Heat Cannon, which fires a large energy glob and three smaller projectiles (one of which fires backwards) which spread outward from the main blast. This attack is similar to the Robobot Jet Mode's "Missile Spread" attack.

UFO Kirby can move through water and will not revert to his regular form with goggles like with other abilities. UFO Kirby cannot drop through thin floors or use ladders except in Kirby: Planet Robobot.

Kirby's Adventure / Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land[edit]

KA UFO icon.png
Kirby using the UFO ability in Kirby's Adventure.

The U.F.O. ability first appeared in Kirby's Adventure. It can be obtained by swallowing the UFO who appears only once in certain areas, usually hidden rooms. When Kirby has this ability, he transforms into a flying saucer and can fly freely around in the air without being affected by gravity. It fires Star Bullets / Blaster Bullets with medium/max charge in this game. The U.F.O. Blaster Bullets can destroy metal blocks but cannot travel through walls. Kirby will lose the U.F.O. ability once he returns to the stage hub. However, this can be circumvented using certain glitches.

In the remake Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land, the U.F.O. ability fires Heat Beams / Piercing Heat Beams instead with medium/max charge, which has been settled in later games. Despite the changes in attacks, they do the same damage in the remake. The glitch allowing the player to keep the U.F.O. ability is also removed in the remake.

Hold B (long hold) Blaster Bullet / Piercing Heat Beam U.F.O. Kirby fires a Blaster Bullet / Piercing Heat Beam. 18 Can pierce through enemies; can destroy metal blocks. The original Blaster Bullet does 25 damage in both games.

Kirby's Dream Course[edit]

U.F.O. Kirby crossing a gap in Kirby's Dream Course

The U.F.O. ability reappears in Kirby's Dream Course. It is gained by defeating the UFO enemy. When used, Kirby can freely fly around laterally while maintaining his height off the ground, but will be forced to come down after 10 seconds. The ability will be canceled early if B is pressed or if Kirby hits a bumper or wall.

Notably, while Kirby can float OB and fly off cliffs while using this ability, he will still move up and down slopes like normal if he is touching them. Additionally, the speed at which the UFO travels is dependent on how quickly Kirby was moving prior to transforming.

Kirby & The Amazing Mirror[edit]

Kirby using the UFO's Chain Beam attack to bust through a barricade in Kirby & The Amazing Mirror.

The U.F.O. ability reappears in Kirby & The Amazing Mirror, where it uses the same assets from Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land and functions mostly the same as its previous appearance.

When U.F.O. Kirby uses the Cell Phone, a small satellite dish is used instead. Kirby will lose this ability if he returns to Rainbow Route - Central Circle.

Kirby: Squeak Squad[edit]

UFO Kirby with the Star Guard orbiting him in Kirby: Squeak Squad

The U.F.O. ability reappears in Kirby: Squeak Squad, where it again uses the same assets from Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land. The ability can now be used when leaving a stage. However, the ability's other attacks become considerably weaker and the Heat Beams lose the fire element in this title. When fighting Doc, he may occasionally drop his own personal UFO when stunned, which Kirby can inhale to gain the ability.

The U.F.O. Ability Scroll gives the ability a new attack called Star Guard, which automatically creates a rotating electric orb around U.F.O. Kirby.

Kirby: Triple Deluxe[edit]

UFO Kirby (dot sprite from Kirby's Adventure) appears as a keychain in Kirby: Triple Deluxe.

Kirby Fighters Deluxe and Kirby Fighters 2[edit]

In Kirby Fighters Deluxe and its sequel Kirby Fighters 2, UFO Kirby is one of the enemies that can appear (in his original 8-bit form) on the Butter Building Battle Stage. Here, he will fly in and deposit a food item in the middle of the stage, either atop the thin floor or on the ground below. He will deal 12 damage to fighters on contact, and can be interrupted if defeated.

Kirby: Planet Robobot[edit]

UFO Kirby using the new "Mystery Catch" attack in Kirby: Planet Robobot.

The UFO ability reappears in Kirby: Planet Robobot, where it is an extremely rare ability, as the UFO enemy does not appear in the main stages. The ability is obtainable only by either scanning Kirby's home-series amiibo into the game, or by completing the game 100% to unlock the UFO enemy's appearance in the Copy Ability Room. To obtain this ability in The Arena and The True Arena, amiibo must be used.

Here, UFO Kirby is as strong as he was in earlier games and has a larger moveset. Like in Kirby: Squeak Squad, Kirby can keep this ability when he leaves a stage. The ability also allows Kirby to drop through platforms, unlike in previous games.

When in a cutscene, traversing the World Map, traveling through a pipe, or using a Warp Star, Kirby assumes his normal form, and wears a special hat that resembles the UFO top.
