Kirby's neutral special is known as '''Vacuum''' (also known as '''Swallow''' in ''Melee'' and '''Inhale''' in later games), where Kirby opens his mouth wide open and then begins to [[vacuum]], creating a vortex of wind. The move can be used for an infinite duration as long as the [[B button]] is held down and nothing interrupts Kirby. The move can be stopped by releasing the B button, or if Kirby [[flinch]]es. Its main purpose is to suck up a nearby opponent. With an opponent inhaled and Kirby bloated by them, Kirby can't move around, and if he is in midair, his [[falling speed]] is increased. If Kirby does not do anything with the inhaled opponent, they will eventually escape in a few moments and Kirby will be knocked back. However he has various options that can be used. | |||
The first option is that Kirby can copy an opponent's [[neutral special move]] while popping them out for 6% damage - performed by pressing the B button or by tilting the [[control stick]] down. This allows Kirby to use their said neutral special move in place of Inhale, and gains a hat resembling that character (for example, if Kirby copies {{SSB|Mario}}, he will be able to use [[Fireball]], and gains a hat identical to his). However, Kirby can also lose the copied special move and hat by either being attacked enough so that a star resembling that ability drops out of him, being KO'd, or if he decides to discarding it by [[taunt]]ing. Note that if Kirby uses this option after inhaling another Kirby, he won't gain an ability or hat, unless the Kirby being inhaled has a copied ability; the inhaler would gain that ability while the inhaled Kirby would lose it. A list of copy abilities that Kirby can gain can be seen [[List of Copy Abilities|here]]. | The first option is that Kirby can copy an opponent's [[neutral special move]] while popping them out for 6% damage - performed by pressing the B button or by tilting the [[control stick]] down.
