Pitch is one of Kirby's Animal Friends who has only appeared in Kirby's Dream Land 3. He is a bird, like Coo - more specifically, he resembles a baby Japanese white-eye. He appears strained when he flies with Kirby. He is the smallest of the Animal Friends in Kirby's Dream Land 3. He also made a cameo appearance in Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards as one of Kirby's forms while using the Animal Statues ability. Pitch is also the only Animal Friend other than ChuChu of Kirby's that needs to be carried.
Pitch's mother is Pitch Mama, with whom he appears to have a happy relationship.
Kirby tosses a flaming Pitch as if he was a Cutter; in the same fashion, Pitch returns after the attack. Unlike the actual Cutter ability, however, Pitch can also pick up items and fly through walls.
Kirby holds a remote control and flies Pitch around. The player can control this attack with the +Control Pad. As a bonus, Pitch can pick up items in his 'RC' form. However, Kirby can be hurt as he is standing still controlling Pitch. Pitch can also fly through walls.
Nearly the same as Rick's Cutter attack, but Pitch is the cutter, and Pitch moves much faster. As with the Burning ability combo, Pitch can pick up items and fly through walls.
Kirby uses the parasol as a baseball bat and whacks Pitch into the air. As with the Clean ability combo, the player can use the +Control Pad to control how far Pitch will fly.
