Jelly is aCopy Food Ability that turnsKirby into an amorphous blob of gelatin. This ability first appeared inKirby's Dream Buffet, and is obtainable from the Jiggling JellyCopy Food item found inFood Boxes. It is available both in Races and Battle Royales, like with many other Copy Abilities inKirby's Dream Buffet.

Characteristics[edit]

Jelly has the ability to pass through objects such as breakable walls, as well as dodging most enemies and their attacks, in addition to gaining better traction on slippery surfaces. Like other abilities in this game, Jelly only lasts for a short period of time before Kirby reverts to normal. By pressing R repeatedly, Kirby can use Jelly Trap to leave blobs of Sticky Jelly behind him, which will cause the ability to burn out faster, but the blobs can slow down anyone who runs into them.

Flavor text[edit]

Kirby's Dream Buffet Tasty Tidbits[edit]

  • "While using the Jelly ability, press R to use Jelly Trap and leave blobs of Sticky Jelly in your wake. They might slow your rivals down!"
  • "When you use the Jelly ability's Jelly Trap move with R, each blob of Sticky Jelly you leave behind will cause the ability to end a bit faster."
  • "Rolling over the slippery surfaces of frozen treats can be tricky. Use the Jelly ability to glide around without slipping or sliding!"
  • "If you see a Crumbling Cookie Wall with cracks in it, you can use Jelly to slip right underneath it and gain an advantage!"

Nintendo Today![edit]

  • "This Copy Food Ability allows Kirby to transform into a jelly blob and slip through walls! Slow down your rivals with sticky jelly goo!"
