“

You'd think Soarar is in another stratosphere, but he's actually a rather approachable sort. If he starts attacking, however, best to just get out of his way. I mean it. Run!

— Soarar's Figurine caption from Kirby and the Rainbow Curse

Soarar is a yellow orange flying wedge-shaped creature who frequently appears as a minor enemy in the Kirby series. First appearing in Kirby & The Amazing Mirror, he is a relatively common sight in the air in the games he appears in, usually flying in straight and slightly diagonal paths at a modest pace. He mainly attacks by collision, and may swoop in from the background, though he could also shoot projectiles in Kirby & The Amazing Mirror. Soarar is usually a minor feature in whatever games he appears in, but has a more outsized role in both Kirby Mass Attack and Kirby and the Rainbow Curse. Soarar is fairly easy to defeat and can be inhaled, but provides no ability if swallowed.

Its name is a misspelling of "soarer", another word for "sailplane".

Kirby & The Amazing Mirror

Soarar debuted in this game, where he flies through the air, often flying in circles. His methods of attack include running into Kirby or shooting small purple lasers. However, he does not provide Kirby with any Copy Ability, even though his lasers might indicate he gives the Laser ability. Soarar is defeated rather easily, as one Air Bullet is enough to take this enemy down.

Locations

Soarar may be found in Rainbow Route, Moonlight Mansion, Mustard Mountain, Radish Ruins, and Candy Constellation.

Kirby: Canvas Curse

Soarar reappears in Kirby: Canvas Curse. He acts almost in the same manner as in the first game, but rarely shoots lasers. In Paint Panic, a Soarar can appear as one of Paint Roller's paintings.

Locations

Four Soarars can also be conjured by Drawcia during her boss fight, though these are dark blue in color.

Kirby Mass Attack

Soarar appears again in Kirby Mass Attack. Here, Soarars are typically seen flying in straight lines, carrying Fruit and other goodies. Standard Soarars are harmless in this game, but there is a gray variant called Mono Soarar which will attempt to divebomb the Kirbys and deal them damage. Soarars are also involved in a minigame that involves the Kirbys attempting to collect fruit cards. When they collect a fruit card, they are awarded with fruit that fills the meter. If they collect a Soarar card, then Mono Soarars attempt to bombard them. This minigame first appears in Level 7 of Green Grounds. A Big Soarar and Small Soarars also make an appearance in this game.
