—Stone's Flavour Text, Kirby: Nightmare in Dreamland
Stone is one of Kirby's Copy abilities.
Stone is almost entirely a defensive move- unless Kirby happens to use it above a foe's head. Stone is an easy way to beat bosses with minimal damage by simply dropping over the boss' head and staying in stone form until the boss moves away. It can also avoid devastating full-screen attacks, like Marx's black hole. The hat looks somewhat like a samurai helmet with a red tuft of hair on the top and a guard on the back, with a star on the forehead piece.

[edit] In Games
| Attack Name | Controls | Description | Element |
|---|---|---|---|
| Transform | B | Kirby becomes invincible and, if in air, falls. He will also roll down slopes. Kirby can crush anything in this state. He can turn into the following: A stone, a solid gold Mario, a solid gold Samus statue, Thudd, a blue volcano, a gold carving of HAL's logo, a thwomp, a spike ball, a fist (possibly Master Hand), a garbage block, a statue of Kirby walking, a statue of a muscular man, bricks from Mario games, a statue of Coo, a statue of Rick, a statue of Kine and an eight-ton weight. In Kirby 64, Kirby can walk around as a stone but can not jump. Also in Kirby 64, Kirby can turn into all of his friends from Kirby's Dreamland 3, too. In Kirby Super Star, Kirby can dash while using this move, which is weaker but can get the upper hand on slower enemies. | None |
| Attack Name | Controls | Description | Element |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rick | B | Rick becomes a giant boulder. His partner will then stand on top and roll him around. Rick is invincible but, his partner is not. | None |
| Coo | B | Kirby becomes a stone in Coo's talons and the duo smash all beneath them. | None |
| Kine | B | Kine is ultimately the same as Kirby's lone stone ability. | None |
| Nago | B | Nago slams a Rock Kirby into the ground, pulveriseing anything in the duos path. | None |
| Chuchu | B | Chuchu swings her stone partner around and smacks nearby enemies. She can move while doing this, albeit slowly. | None |
| Pitch | B | Pitch becomes a rock while Kirby leaps into the sky and slams him down. | None |
[edit] Super Smash Bros. Series
In the Super Smash Bros. games Stone ability is Kirby's Down Special attack. He can only turn into his distinct rock form in Super Smash Bros., but in Melee and Brawl the ability acts more like it's Super Star variant turning Kirby into a variety of things such as; a 100t Weight, a garbage block from Panel de Pon (In the floral style associated with the character Lip), a spiked ball, and a Thwomp from the Mario Series as well as the regular stone Kirby.
Like in Kirby's own games, he's still invulnerable to attacks (except grapples and throws) regardless of what he turns into and only hurts other fighters if used over their heads. The Stone also slides down slopes, so care needs to be taken when using the move near slopes.
[edit] Kirby: Right Back At Ya!
Stone Kirby relies on it's sheer bulk to crush enemies. when he transforms he shouts stone kaabii!
