Yo-Yo (also called Yo-yo and Yoyo in Kirby Super Star) is a Copy Ability that can be obtained by inhaling Gim. It debuted in Kirby Super Star and likewise, it was also a part of its remake Kirby Super Star Ultra. The ability allows Kirby to utilize a bright red yo-yo to smack around enemies from a safe distance, comparable to the Beam or Whip ability. The yo-yo can also pass through walls and floors, making it useful for activating switches or solving puzzles.

Kirby can also obtain the Yo-Yo ability through Copy Essences Deluxe. With the yo-yo equipped, Kirby can create Gim as a Helper. In Kirby Super Star, Kirby is outfitted with a backwards ball cap when he acquires this ability. In Kirby Star Allies, this outfit also comes with a bandage on Kirby's right cheek.

Trivia[edit]

  • Kirby's backwards cap is more than likely a reference to EarthBound. In the game, various characters can equip yo-yos as weapons, and the main character, Ness, wears a similar cap. HAL had also done some work on EarthBound as well. This reference would carry forward in proper fashion with the ESP ability.
    • Additionally, the checkered background of the ability icon resembles EarthBound's file select screen and character HP/PP boxes.
  • Oddly enough, in the original Kirby Super Star, this ability could be obtained by inhaling one of the Combo Cannon's cannonballs. This was changed in Kirby Super Star Ultra, where Kirby receives the Bomb ability from them instead.
  • Break Spin is Kirby's dash attack in Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U. It also appears as Kirby's floor attack upon being tripped in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Kirby does not use the yo-yo for this move in both instances, however.
