Ability Scrolls are special collectable items which may be found inside certainTreasure Chests inKirby: Squeak Squad. These scrolls allow each of Kirby's abilities to either have a new skill or improve one of his old ones. The only abilities in the game not to have ability scrolls areGhost andTriple Star, due to the former being unlockable itself, and the latter being aLast Battle Ability only obtainable at the end of the game.
List of scrolls[edit]
The following is a table containing info on each Ability Scroll:
| Ability | Image | Scroll location | Function |
|---|---|---|---|
| Animal | Nature Notch - Stage 1 | Allows Animal Kirby to use a new move while in midair that goes left, right, or down as a drill. | |
| Beam | Nature Notch - Stage 5 | Changes the Beam Whip into the more powerfulUFO Chain Beam version and gives it electric properties. | |
| Bomb | Secret Sea - Stage 3 | Bomb can now be merged withIce orSpark to become Ice Bomb or Thunder Bomb, respectively. | |
| Bubble | Jam Jungle - Stage 1 | Allows Kirby to fire a larger bubble at good distance, which can be aimed slightly. | |
| Cupid | Ice Island - Stage 5 | Kirby can now shoot three arrows at once with a dash attack. | |
| Cutter | Nature Notch - Stage 4 | Makes the Cutter Boomerang bigger and able to pass through multiple targets. (Resembles Hyper Boomerang introduced inKirby's Return to Dream Land.) | |
| Fighter | Ice Island - Stage 3 | If the B button is held so that it is fully charged, Fighter Kirby can launch an even bigger and more powerful energy blast, which can destroymetal blocks. If Fighter Kirby'shealth is very low, he can instantly launch the max charged blast. | |
| Fire | Prism Plains - Stage 3 | Allows fire breath to be angled up or down. | |
| Hammer | Vocal Volcano - Stage 2 | If the B button is held for a certain amount of time, the hammer will grow twice as big, and more powerful. | |
| Hi-Jump | Cushy Cloud - Stage 4 | Increases the attack hitbox of Hi-Jump. Allows Hi-Jump to destroy metal blocks. Does not increase the attack power of Hi-Jump, however. | |
| Ice | Jam Jungle - Secret | Allows Kirby to angle his ice breath up or down. | |
| Laser | Jam Jungle - Stage 5 | If the B button is held, the laser beam becomes bigger and more powerful, able to pass through multiple targets. | |
| Magic | Secret Sea - Stage 4 | If the B button is held, a roulette appears, and Kirby gets whatever it lands on, losing Magic in the process. This move functions similarly to how Magic worked inKirby & The Amazing Mirror. | |
| Metal | Jam Jungle - Stage 3 | Allows Kirby to turn into a metal ball, allowing him to roll down slopes, much like howStone in other games can slide. | |
| Ninja | Vocal Volcano - Stage 3 | If the B button is held, Kirby gains energy. If let go on land, he uses a fiery attack. If on water, he uses an aquatic attack. | |
| Parasol | Vocal Volcano - Stage 1 | If the B button is held, the Parasol Shield has an increased range, but its power does not increase. | |
| Sleep | Vocal Volcano - Secret | Sleep now restores some of Kirby'shealth instead of only rendering him incapable of moving. (Resembles howSleep works inKirby and the Forgotten Land.) | |
| Spark | Cushy Cloud - Stage 1 | Allows Kirby to charge up more Spark energy, and fire the energy as a Spark Bullet after charging it up enough. | |
| Sword | Ice Island - Stage 1 | Sword can be merged withFire,Ice, orSpark to become Fire Sword, Ice Sword, or Thunder Sword, respectively. | |
| Throw | Secret Sea - Stage 1 | Kirby throws with more power and deals more damage. | |
| Tornado | Cushy Cloud - Stage 5 | Allows the tornado to have electric, fiery, or icy traits if it goes through electric, fire, or ice terrain, respectively. | |
| UFO | Gamble Galaxy - Stage 1 | A spark orbits Kirby, hurting any enemy in contact (Resembles UFO Kirby's Star Guard attack inKirby: Planet Robobot). | |
| Wheel | Nature Notch - Stage 3 | Allows the wheel to have electric, fiery, or icy traits if it goes through electric, fire, or ice terrain, respectively. |
Trivia[edit]

- Within the game files, there are 24 distinct Ability Scroll sprites (presumably one for each Copy Ability excludingTriple Star). However, only nine of these scrolls are used in the final game, with abilities sharing the same sprites. It is unclear why the other scrolls ended up not being used.
