Moveset[edit]
All attack names come from theKirby and the Forgotten Land Perfect Support Guide unless otherwise stated.
| Clutter Needle moveset | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| Move | Button execution | Description | Damage[1] |
| ニードルボウル Needle Ball | Press and hold B/Y | Kirby extends spikes all around his body. This will drop 1-2 springs, screws, or seashells, which can deal damage. When the button is released, it will drop 4-5 of these objects. If the L Stick is moved while the button is held, Kirby can roll around like a ball and can catch enemies and objects with his spikes. As Kirby rolls, he gradually slows down; however, catching enemies and objects also briefly speeds him up. If the attack button is pressed in midair, Kirby spins and dashes in the direction the L-Stick is tilted, before transitioning into Needle Ball. This will drop 1-2 objects. | 22 per hit, 1 (dropped clutter) |
| スピンニードル Spin Needle | A/B or fall from a high ledge during Needle Ball | Kirby jumps while in ball form, allowing him to clear small ledges or hit high-up enemies. | 22 per hit |
| まきちらしニードル Scatter Needle | Release B/Y after catching an enemy or object with Needle Ball | Kirby tosses any enemies or objects stuck to his spikes ahead of him. | 1 (dropped clutter), 69 (thrown enemies/objects) |
| まきちらしスピンニードル Scatter Spin Needle | Release B/Y after catching an enemy or object with Needle Ball while in midair | If the button is released while Kirby is airborne, any enemies or objects stuck to his spikes get launched further. | 1 (dropped clutter), 69 (thrown enemies/objects) |

Trivia[edit]
- This ability is reminiscent of theNeedle-NeedlePower Combo fromKirby 64: The Crystal Shards, which also involves lots of different pointy objects attached to Kirby.
- In the parameter file for Blueprint hints, Clutter Needle is referred to as "BalloonfishNeedle" rather than its usual internal name "JunkNeedle" for one of the values, indicating that maybe in early development, it was instead based on a pufferfish.
