'''Inhale''' is [[King Dedede (SSBB)|King Dedede's]] [[neutral B]] attack. The attack is identical to [[Kirby (SSBB)|Kirby's]] [[inhale]], but without the copying ability. By pressing B Dedede will begin to inhale the air in front of him, creating a [[Vacuum|vortex]]. He will continue to inhale as long as B is held down. If a character comes near him, they will automatically be sucked inside of him, and will be trapped in his stomach. When swallowed, Dedede's stomach enlarges to hold the victim, which makes him extremely slow. Dedede simply spits the character back out when A is pressed, or they break free themselves.
'''Inhale''' is [[Kirby|Kirby's]] [[neutral B]] attack in all three of his incarnations in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series, though it was previously called '''Swallow''' in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros.

If a character comes near the [[vacuum|vortex]] , they will automatically be sucked inside Kirby, who will bloat up with the person inside of him. The goal of the attack is to swallow the victim (by pressing down or B), which will make Kirby able to preform that character's neutral B move (the character pops out after being swallowed, and can still preform their neutral B attack). If Kirby traps the wrong character in his mouth, or simply doesn't want the character's move, Kirby can spit the character out by pressing A.

==Swallowing items==
:''Main Article: [[Item Swallowing]]''
Just like [[King Dedede (SSBB)|King Dedede's]] [[Inhale (King Dedede)|Inhale]] and [[Wario|Wario's]] [[Chomp]], Kirby can swallow items using the attack. Any item meant to be eaten will have the same effect (such as [[Food]]). However, Kirby can eat any item on the screen. Kirby will automatically swallow the item when it is in his mouth, meaning he can keep other characters from using it.  [[Poké Ball|Poké Balls]] and [[Mr. Saturn]] cannot be swallowed.


Much like [[Wario]]'s [[Chomp]], Dedede is able to swallow items using this attack. If he swallows a recovery item, he still recovers damage from it as he normally would. If he swallows an explosive he will take a small amount of damage.
==Background==
Inhaling and spitting has been a trademark attack of Kirby since ''[[Kirby's Dream Land]]'', but it was not until ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]'' was he able to swallow an enemy to copy their attack. It wasn't until ''[[Kirby Super Star]]'' that Kirby also had different hats that indicated the power he copied. A single attack was usually enough to make Kirby lose his copied power.


==Origin==
A list of hats and the power Kirby gets for each can be found [[Kirby hat series|here]].
In the Kirby games, Dedede has exhibited the ability to inhale foes or objects just like Kirby can. He can't, however, copy the inhaled person's abilities. For some reason, King Dedede was incapable (or simply never shown doing it) of "inhalating" in the ''Kirby: Right Back At Ya!'' anime (known as ''Kirby of the Stars'' in Japan).
 
Because [[Olimar]]'s netral B move is useless by itself, Kirby does not exactly copy the move. Rather, he will use [[Pikmin Pluck]] followed immediately by [[Pikmin Throw]], although the Pikmin will not latch on after being thrown.
 
=="Kirbycide" Applications==
:''Main article: [[Kirbycide]]''
 
In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', Kirby is capable of slowly walking around the stage while carrying opponents in his mouth or swallowing a foe off stage, but not too far off. This allows for some forms of [[Kirbycide]], wherein Kirby jumps off the [[edge]] with someone in his mouth and releases them at a distance or position from which they are unable to recover, forcing a [[self-destruct]].

Kirby inhaling Mario. Once Mario is inhaled, Kirby will spit Mario out, and can use Mario's fireballs.

Inhale is Kirby's neutral B attack in all three of his incarnations in the Super Smash Bros. series, though it was previously called Swallow in Super Smash Bros. and Super Smash Bros. Melee. When B is pressed, Kirby opens his mouth and begins to inhale, creating a vortex of wind. Kirby will never stop inhaling until B is released. If a character comes near the vortex , they will automatically be sucked inside Kirby, who will bloat up with the person inside of him. The goal of the attack is to swallow the victim (by pressing down or B), which will make Kirby able to preform that character's neutral B move (the character pops out after being swallowed, and can still preform their neutral B attack). If Kirby traps the wrong character in his mouth, or simply doesn't want the character's move, Kirby can spit the character out by pressing A.

Kirby dons a unique hat depending on who he's inhaled, such as wearing Mario's hat if he swallows Mario. The copied special attack will sometimes be lost when Kirby is attacked enough, and can also be discarded by taunting. Inhaling another Kirby and copying will do nothing unless the other Kirby has already copied an attack and is wearing a hat. In the original and Melee, if a Kirby is wearing a hat, another Kirby is able to steal it for themselves.

Swallowing items

Main Article: Item Swallowing

Just like King Dedede's Inhale and Wario's Chomp, Kirby can swallow items using the attack. Any item meant to be eaten will have the same effect (such as Food). However, Kirby can eat any item on the screen. Kirby will automatically swallow the item when it is in his mouth, meaning he can keep other characters from using it. Poké Balls and Mr. Saturn cannot be swallowed.

Background

Inhaling and spitting has been a trademark attack of Kirby since Kirby's Dream Land, but it was not until Kirby's Adventure was he able to swallow an enemy to copy their attack. It wasn't until Kirby Super Star that Kirby also had different hats that indicated the power he copied. A single attack was usually enough to make Kirby lose his copied power.

A list of hats and the power Kirby gets for each can be found here.

Because Olimar's netral B move is useless by itself, Kirby does not exactly copy the move. Rather, he will use Pikmin Pluck followed immediately by Pikmin Throw, although the Pikmin will not latch on after being thrown.

"Kirbycide" Applications

Main article: Kirbycide

In Super Smash Bros. Melee and Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Kirby is capable of slowly walking around the stage while carrying opponents in his mouth or swallowing a foe off stage, but not too far off. This allows for some forms of Kirbycide, wherein Kirby jumps off the edge with someone in his mouth and releases them at a distance or position from which they are unable to recover, forcing a self-destruct.
