Suplex is a copy ability of Kirby's that has appeared only in Kirby Super Star and Kirby Super Star Ultra. Suplex Kirby looks like Throw Kirby, but attacks like Backdrop Kirby.
Suplex is obtained from Mini-boss Bugzzy, Jukid, or occasionally Phan Phan, and Bugzzy is the helper of Suplex. Most of Suplex's moves can only be performed to an enemy, small boss projectiles, and a defeated mini-boss, but not to bosses. It features Kirby dashing forward and grabbing an enemy he bumps to, and delivering a massive blow to it. Also, any objects in the way of any throw from the Suplex ability will instantly be destroyed or damaged.
[edit] Attacks and Features
| Attack Name | Controls | Description | Element |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dash Capture | B | Kirby dashes forward and grabs an enemy or mid-boss (when defeated). If B is pressed while dashing Kirby will move faster. If B is pressed after a grab Kirby does a rising break on an enemy or mid-boss, sending them flying. If forward is pressed Kirby leaps forward and smashes the enemy or mid-boss into the ground. If backwards is pressed Kirby falls backwards and smashes the enemy or mid-boss against the ground. If ↑ or A is pressed Kirby jumps and flattens the foe underneath him. | None |
| Fury Stomp | B+B (Near enemy) | Kirby grabs his enemy (or defeated mid-boss) and stomps on it. | None |
| Pinpoint Kick | ↓+B (Midair) | Kirby falls, kicking as he goes down, often destroying most enemies below. | None |
[edit] Trivia
Many of Suplex's moves, particularly the forwards and backwards throws and the Fury Stomp are used when Kirby throws an enemy in the Super Smash Bros. games. The only exception is his up throw, which seems to be based on Ninja's Throw.
