Wheel is One of Kirby's Copy abilities.
Normally wearing a backwards red baseball cap, Kirby can turn into a big pink wheel that zooms along the ground, destroying nearly any foe or obstacle and making Kirby almost completely invulnerable.
Wheel has had a couple of anime appearances, both involving races of some sort.

[edit] In Games
| Attack Name | Controls | Description | Element |
|---|---|---|---|
| Wheel Roll | B | Kirby rolls forward with invinciblity. When his path is obstructed by a wall, he crashes and his roll ends. | None |
| Wheel Turn Jump | B + → (Repeatedly) | Kirby jumps a little when rolling. This attack erases invincibility frames from Kirby. | None |
| Brake | B (Moving) | Kirby stops rolling. | None |
| Slow Down | B (Held) (Moving) | Kirby slows down. This attack takes away some of his invincibility frames. | None |
[edit] With a Wheelie Rider
Wheelie Rider has the same attacks as a regular Wheel ability, except that P2 controls the Wheelie and P1 controls Kirby.
| Attack Name | Controls | Description | Element |
|---|---|---|---|
| Jump | A (P1) | Wheelie jumps. This jump goes much higher than the Turn Jump. | None |
| Dismount | Up + A/Y (P1) | Kirby gets off the Wheelie Bike. | None |
| Star Shot | B or Y (P2?) | Stars are fired that deal damage. | None |
[edit] Kirby: Right Back At Ya!
Wheel Kirby appeared in both racing-themed episodes of the series, where of course it's the most useful. It keeps the same look, with Kirby turning into a pink tire with a star-shaped hubcab, but gains no extra powers- just pure speed. Even when it looks like all is lost, Wheel Kirby can zoom past all opposition. It's his fastest ability after Jet, though he does still get tired after a while.
In the Transformation Sequence, Kirby Waves a Checkered Flag around until a tire hits him and he spins around, the tire appears on his head where it turns into the Red Cap, which Kirby fixes so it's on backwards.

[edit] Kirby (Wii)
Wheelie Rider technically appears in a screenshot for the game, but, since Wheel is the base for Wheelie Rider, Wheel is likely to appear in this game. Wheel will probably retain its near-invincibility and insane speed from other games.
