—Burning's Flavour Text, Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land
Burning is one of Kirby's Copy abilities. It is often merged with the Fire ability mainly because of its simplistic form of attack. In Kirby's Dream Land 2, Kirby's Dream Land 3. and Kirby 64, the actual Fire ability is absent, although Burning appears to be its replacment. When the Burning ability is used in conjunction with an Animal Friend (with the exception of Kine) underwater, its range and power are greatly reduced.
Kirby gets this ability when he eats an enemy that constantly radiates heat around itself, the most common being Flamer. When the ability is used, Kirby is wrapped in a coat of flames and then charges forward, burning any enemy he goes through. It is able to light fuses, and in all games (except for Kirby Super Star/Kirby Super Star Ultra), it can break through Metal Blocks.
Because of its absence as its own ability in Kirby Super Star, Burning didn't receive its hat until Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land, alongside Hammer, Spark, Hi-Jump, and others. Burning Kirby wears a bejeweled tiara, and his arms are inflamed.
In the English versions of Kirby's Adventure, Kirby's Dream Land 2 and Kirby's Dream Course, this ability is called Fireball.

[edit] Super Smash Bros. Series
In Super Smash Bros. Melee, Burning appears as Kirby's dash attack turning him into a fireball as he plows though his foes. This attack was replaced with Yo-Yo's Dash attack in Super Smash Bros. Brawl.
