When Kirby copies an ability (other than a one-use ability), you can press the X Button to create a Helper— Kirby will lose the Copy Ability. During a single-player game, the Helper will be controlled by the computer, and when there is a second player, P2 will control the Helper.

*The Helper will disappear when its health reaches 0. Kirby can then make a new one.
