![]() Shadow Kirby is a gray/black and/or purple version of Kirby from the Mirror World that appears in Kirby & The Amazing Mirror and the Kirby Fighters games. As he has never properly appeared again in the series, and he is never acknowledged in the story of the game or in any cutscene, it is likely that this Kirby is not canon and only serves a multiplayer purpose, as other colored Kirbys would often do in future games, though he is notable as the first example of a differently-colored clone of Kirby to appear in the series' history. Like Kirby, he is able to copy abilities from enemies, though it is unknown whether he can float or inhale. In the game, he serves as player 2, competing against Kirby. The player 2 character in Kirby's Dream Course is a yellow version of Kirby called Keeby. Keeby (left) and Shadow Kirby (right) are the only two examples of Kirby lookalikes who have distinct names and identities. When the Kirby Printer is eventually destroyed, all the clones it created vanish. These clones come pre-equipped with a Copy Ability, and never discard them. In Kirby Battle Royale, King Dedede is in possession of a Kirby Printer which is capable of mass-producing Kirby clones (which come in every color except for pink). Differently-colored clones of Kirby also appear in the Kirby Clash games as part of Team Kirby. Aside from this superficial difference, each Kirby has the same abilities and presumably the same motives. not counting simple palette swaps for multiplayer modes, detailed below) is in Kirby & The Amazing Mirror, where Dark Meta Knight strikes Kirby with his sword and splits him into four different Kirbys, each with a different color. The first canonical instance of this (i.e. There are, of course, examples of more persistent and distinct clones of Kirby who operate separately from him and are often distinguished by body color. Other examples of such ephemeral Kirby clones include the Kirbys operating the Goal Game cannon in Dyna Blade from Kirby Super Star, the Kirbys that come pouring out of the cloud in the opening cutscene for Bubbly Clouds from Kirby's Dream Land, and instances of splitting Kirby into multiple copies for gameplay purposes, such as in Kirby's Block Ball, Kirby Mass Attack, and Kirby and the Rainbow Curse. These clones are produced just ahead of the dance and do not persist after the level or stage fades out. This trope goes all the way back to the original Kirby's Dream Land, though it is not clear if these dance clones are meant to be distinct entities or if they are just a visual effect as part of the dance. The most basic example is when Kirby splits into multiple copies of himself in order to perform his victory dance at the end of levels and stages. The Kirby series has a habit of cloning Kirby regularly in various ways. The Kirby series has a habit of splitting Kirby into several copies, whether it just be for visual effect, or as part of the story. ![]()
