Kirby's Falcon Punch is notable, as with the exception of ''Smash 4'', Kirby's Falcon Punch differs from Falcon's in every game.

In ''Smash 64'', Kirby's Falcon Punch does not have a middle hit and its sweetspot is larger than Captain Falcon's. As a result, his 26% sweetspot is significantly easier to land compared to Falcon's. His aerial Falcon Punch, however, does not deal extra shield damage, unlike Falcon's.

In ''Melee'', Kirby's Falcon Punch does not have a middle hit and its sweetspot and sourspot are positioned differently from Falcon's (with Falcon's sweetspot being closer to him while Kirby's is further away from him).

In ''Brawl'', Kirby's Falcon Punch has smaller hitboxes than Falcon's; however, it retains its knockback values from ''Melee'', making it stronger than Falcon's. If Kirby uses the Falcon Punch immediately after a jump, he will get a large boost upward. This is most noticeable with his [[footstool]] jump, which goes nearly twice as high as normal. This is sometimes known as a footstool punch. Captain Falcon also has this vertical boost, although it is much smaller due to his higher falling speed.
