from the instruction manual, so I don’t take credit for it.                “In a
distant corner of the galaxy, fairies lived peacefully on the planet called Ripple Star. 
But then one day, a mysterious black cloud appeared and surrounded the peaceful planet. 
The cloud, a sinister force known as Dark Matter, had come in search of the fairies’
secret treasure—their shining crystal.                “A fairy named Ribbon knew that
dreadful things would come to pass if Dark Matter gained control of the powerful crystal. 
She grabbed the shining stone and escaped from Ripple Star—just before the planet was
completely engulfed.                “But as Ribbon fled, three dark clouds split from
the mass of Dark Matter to chase her through space.  And when they caught up with her and
attacked, the fairies’ crystal shattered into tiny shards, which dropped like falling
stars onto the many planets in the solar system.                “Still holding one of
the crystal shards, Ribbon fell onto the planet called Pop Star, where—perhaps by fate—she
ran smack in to Kirby.  After hearing her desperate plight, Kirby resolved to help Ribbon
recover all of the crystal shards.”  --------------------------2.
CHARACTERS--------------------------Kirby: Kirby is the main character, a lovable ball of
cuteness, and this time, he has to help Ribbon the fairy find all the crystal shards and
stop Dark Matter. Ribbon: Ribbon is one of the fairies that lived on Ripple Star, the
planet taken over by Dark Matter.  She tried to escape with the crystal, but the crystal
was broken when she was attacked by Dark Matter.  Kirby must help this poor
fairy! Waddle Dee: Normally enemies of Kirby, this Waddle Dee wants to help him on
his quest.  He’ll help our hero get through certain areas. King Dedede: King Dedede
often causes trouble for Kirby and the other residents of Pop Star, but this time around,
he’s actually helpful.  He’ll let Kirby ride on his back while he breaks down barriers
with his hammer. Adeleine: Adeleine is a young painter.  Her paintings can provide
Kirby with much needed Maxim Tomatoes and extra lives.  ---------------------3.

POWERS-----------------SINGLE POWERSBomb: Kirby will throw a bomb.  The longer you hold B,
the farther and higher it will go. Burn: Kirby turns into a little comet-like thing
and shoots forward a short distance. Cutter: Kirby will use part of his body as a
boomerang.  While he’s in two pieces, he can’t grab things or fly. Ice: Hold B, and
Kirby can freeze enemies and turn them into blocks of ice.  You can then hit the blocks to
push them into other things. Needle: Kirby will get spikes on his body for a short
time. Spark: Hold down B and Kirby will get electricity around him to defeat enemies
with. Stone: Kirby will turn into a rock.  You can slowly walk around like this, and
you can also press down on the control pad to make him go back into a ball form.  Press B
to attack, which also turns you back into normal Kirby.  As a rock, certain enemy attacks
are blocked, but Kirby can’t go up hills or jump.  Touching an enemy will break the rock
and hurt Kirby.  DOUBLE POWERSDouble Bomb: Kirby will shoot missiles out of his
mouth that kind of home in on enemies.  Hold B longer to shoot more missiles (up to
three). Double Burn: Kirby will go a long distance as a comet.  He can defeat a lot
of enemies in his path, but you can’t control where he stops, so he often lands in
dangerous places afterward. Double Cutter: This is just a bigger boomerang attack
than that of single Cutter. Double Ice: Kirby rolls up into a snowball and rolls
forward.  Any enemy in his path will get pulled in, and when you hit something or press B,
all the enemies with you will be defeated. Double Needle: A bunch of pointy objects
come out of Kirby for a short time. Double Spark: This attack has a bigger range than
single Spark, and when you get close to certain enemies, they may get struck with
lightning bolts. Double Stone: This is the same as single Stone, except that Kirby’s
bigger.  POWER COMBOSBomb/Burn: Kirby jumps in the air and does some kind of
firework thing.  You can do it a couple times while he’s in the air. Bomb/Cutter:
Kirby throws a little ninja star that sticks to enemies and blows up. Bomb/Ice: Kirby
turns into a snowman, walks around for a bit, then, blows up. Bomb/Needle: Kirby
turns into a Gordo.  You can move around for a few seconds until he shoots spikes and
turns back into normal Kirby, or you can just press B to attack. Bomb/Spark: Kirby
turns into a light bulb and then blows up later on.  You have to hold down B or it won’t
work. Bomb/Stone: Kirby will drop some dynamite that explodes after a few seconds. 
Press down on the control pad to get a hard hat so the explosion won’t hurt you.  (Get the
hard hat on immediately.  If the dynamite touches an enemy, it will blow up right
away.) Burn/Cutter: Kirby gets a fiery sword.  Press B to slash at enemies.  Press up
on the control pad to hold it straight up and then B again to throw it. Burn/Ice:
Kirby burns and freezes enemies at the same time because he’s special like
that. Burn/Needle: Kirby shoots fire arrows.  Hold B down longer for him to shoot
higher. Burn/Spark: You must hold down B at first.  Kirby rubs a piece of glass on
his head for a little bit until it lights his head on fire, and then he’ll run around
looking terrified. Burn/Stone: Kirby turns into a little volcano and shoots balls of
fire from his head.  Use the control pad to aim. Cutter/Ice: Kirby ice skates.  You
have to jump to attack; simply running into enemies won’t work. Cutter/Needle: Kirby
gets these two spiky things on his sides and they go upward, like
scissors. Cutter/Spark: Kirby gets a double-bladed lightning sword.  Press B for him
to twirl it.  Press down on the control pad for him to put it away.  Away to where?  I
don’t know. Cutter/Stone: Kirby turns into different stone critters.  (Do they look
familiar to you?)  Kirby can’t move when he’s a fish.  As a bird, press A to flap its
wings.  As a hamster, you can climb up walls by jumping onto the wall and repeatedly
pressing A with good timing.  As the cat, you can jump two times in
midair. Ice/Stone: Kirby changes into a tea pot and slides around.  You can’t jump
during this. Ice/Needle: Kirby turns into a snowflake.  Just hold B, and he’ll grow
spikes of ice that freeze enemies. Ice/Spark: Kirby turns into a fridge and shoots
out food for a short time. Needle/Spark: Kirby gets a needle on his head and
lightning strikes it. Needle/Stone: Kirby gets a drill and moves forward as long as B
is pressed.  If you press down on the control pad and B, he’ll have the drill beneath
him.  You can’t jump with this. Spark/Stone: Kirby will get a nice pet rock, attached
to him with an electric leash.  It’ll bounce around, but when it comes back to Kirby, it
will break, so try to dodge it to make it last longer.  You can’t fly during
this.  --------------5. ITEMS--------------1-Up: These give you an extra
life. Blue Star: When you return to a place that previously had a shard, you’ll find
one of these blue stars.  These are worth 10 stars. Crystal Shard: Shards of the
crystal Ribbon tried to protect from Dark Matter.  Collect them all and something special
might happen…. Food: Other food items, while still delicious, only recover one unit
of health each. Green Star: You can only get these at the end of a level, during the
picnic game.  It’s worth 3 stars. Info Card: These are only at the end of levels,
during the picnic game.  They give you enemy names, found in the Enemy Info section in the
Options menu. Invincibility Candy: These make Kirby invincible for a limited
time. Maxim Tomato: Yum, Kirby’s favorite food will recover all of his
health. Red Star: You can only get these at the end of a level, during the picnic
game.  It’s worth 5 stars. Yellow Star: Once you collect enough of stars, you’ll get
an extra life.  These yellow stars are worth one each, but they’re all over the
place.  -------------------6. ENEMIES-------------------This list is finally
complete!  Enjoy! 0²: It will take you a lot of searching to find this….Power:
None 1³: 1³ is a green block with an eye on it that falls down and tries to crush you
when you get too close.  It’ll kill you if it falls on you, but you can’t hurt it.  How
unfair!Power: None Acro: Acro is the third boss of the game.  He’s a whale (I think)
that will swim around and spit stuff out of his mouth when you fight him.Power:
None Bivolt: These are those yellow lights that appear when you climb along yellow
poles.  They go in one direction for a bit and then disappear.  They can’t be inhaled, so
just avoid them.Power: None Blowfish: Blowfish are the fat, green fish that blow up
when you get close to them.Power: Bomb Bo: These are little black balls with eyes
that float around.Power: None Bobo: Bobo is a flame that runs back and forth.Power:
Burn Bonehead: Boneheads are flying skulls.  They are really annoying, since they try
to land in your way so you’ll run into them.  Watch out.Power: None Bouncy: Bouncies
are pink things that jump up and down, making them hard to hit at times.Power:
None Bronto Burt: Bronto Burt is a pink ball that flies around.  They can be annoying
because they sometimes like to swoop down towards you or even follow you around.Power:
None Bumber: Bumber is a small orange thing with a purple hat that it uses as a
parachute.  It will float down from the sky, then, walk around.Power: None Burnie:
This is a phoenix that flies around and drops stuff on you.Power: Burn Cairn: These
enemies are odd (and they make me think of bird nests, for some reason).  They are made of
three, apparently stone, parts piled on top of one another, and they hop around.  And they
are nice autumn colors, too.Power: Stone Chacha: Chacha is a dancing thing that
attacks you with maracas.Power: None Chilly: Chilly is the angry-looking snowman.  It
can make icy stuff around it, which hurts you and protects it from harm.Power:
Ice Drop: Drops drop from ceilings and look like droplets of water with a red
nucleus.Power: None Emp: Emp is a weird penguin that is afraid of Kirby, I guess. 
When it sees you, it runs.Power: Ice Fishbone: Fishbone looks like arrows that shoot
their front arrow at you when you get close.  Luckily, the thing doesn’t shoot very
far.Power: Cutter Flopper: These are the red fish.Power: None Flora: Floras are
flowers that slowly float down from the ceiling.Power: None Flutter: These are just
butterflies.  They are not enemies, can’t be inhaled, and I never remember even seeing
them before.Power: None Frigis: Frigis looks like a bird made of ice.  They fly
around and drop ice on you from above and sometimes they dive to the ground and die.Power:
Ice Gabon: These guys are blue with skulls on top of them.  They throw bones at you,
and when you try to inhale them, you’ll inhale their heads, and they’ll start to run
away.  Then, you can finish them off.Power: None Galbo: These are the red, little
dinosaur type things that sit around and shoot fire at you when you get near them.Power:
Burn Ghost Knight: These annoying blue enemies have lances and shields.  If you throw
something at them, they just block it with their shield, so you can’t hurt them with
simple attacks.Power: Needle Glom: Sometimes you’ll find frogs that pop out of
holes.  Be careful because they can eat you and then spit you back out, and you can’t
fight back since you can’t inhale them.Power: None Glunk: Glunk is the light green
thing with the red, wiggly stuff on its head.  It can’t move, but it can shoot little
white things from the top of its head.Power: None Gobblin: Gobblins are evil cacti
that try to bite you when you walk past them.  They’re not on your path, so you can’t
inhale them.Power: None Gordo: Gordo is the round, black ball with spikes sticking
out of it.  You can’t beat it, so be careful.Power: None Hack: These are creepy, evil
axes with feet.  They stand around, and when they see you, they run at you to try and…hack
you.Power: Stone HR-H: This is the first phase of the fifth boss, a robot that can
shoot rockets and lasers at you.Power: None HR-E: HR-H will turn into this.  Again,
it’s a robot that has some ill feelings towards Kirby.Power: None Ignus: Ignus are
rocks that fall from the ceiling.  It’s best to inhale them to keep them from landing on
poor Kirby’s head.Power: None Kacti: Kacti is a little cactus that hops or spins
around.Power: Needle Kany: These are crabs.  If you shoot or throw something at them,
they can just break it with their claws, so make sure they’re not snipping their claws
when you attack them.Power: None Kapar: These are the little green guys that throw
stuff at you.Power: Cutter Keke: Keke are witches you sometimes see in the
background, but they don’t attack you, and you can’t attack them.Power: None Magman:
This lava (excuse me, magma) creature is the fourth boss.Power: None Magoo: These are
fire Bos, pretty much.  They just jump out of lava and stuff.Power: Burn Mahall:
Mahall looks like a black hole until you come close, then, it pops up and shoots bubbles
at you.  It’s hard to kill because you can’t suck it up when it’s in the hole, only when
it’s aboveground.  It blows up when it dies, so keep your distance.Power:
None Mariel: Mariel is a spider.  It’s creepy.  It looks like a black blob at first,
but then it gets legs and starts walking around.Power: None Maw: Maw is a round blue
thing with pointy jaws sticking out with sharp teeth.  Watch out for them, waiting in
holes in the floor and ceiling.  When you get close, they jump out, during which is the
best time to attack them.  If they get you, they’ll chew you up and then spit you
out.Power: None Miracle Matter: This is the sixth boss, a strange white blob that can
take many forms.Power: None Mite: Mites are orange creatures that come up from the
ground.  If you just leave them alone, they’ll burrow back under.Power: None Mopoo:
Mopoos are white, little balls with faces that jump from floors and ceilings.Power:
None Mumbies: Mumbies are floating eyes.  They come after you when you turn away from
them, but they stop when you face them.  They can’t be inhaled.Power: None Noo: I
think these are the enemies that come out of holes in the walls and throw flames at you. 
They are only found in one area and can’t be inhaled.Power: None Nruff: Nruffs are
annoying.  They are boars that run back and forth, and they’re pretty fast.Power:
None N-Z: N-Z is a common grey enemy.Power: None Pedo: These are green torpedoes
(the name makes sense now, right?) found in water areas.  They blow up if they touch
you.Power: Bomb Plugg: Plugg is an electrical plug that jumps on its head and shoots
electricity from both sides.Power: Spark Pompey: Pompey shoots fire and rocks from
its head.  It looks like some kind of brown pot with a lid and eyes.Power: Burn or Stone
(depends on what it shoots) Poppy Bros Jr.: Poppy Bros Jr. is the little guy who
throws bombs at you.  You can inhale both him and his bombs.Power: Bomb Prix: Prix is
the second boss, a strange thing made up of three moving parts that Kirby has to
dodge.Power: None Propeller: These are purple, round enemies that float around with
little propellers on their heads.Power: Ice Pteran: Pteran is a purple pterodactyl. 
It flies around and acts annoying, often getting in Kirby’s way.Power: None Punc:
These are the black and green round enemies that roll into a spiky ball and roll
around.Power: Needle Pupa: Pupas are creepy cocoon things that hang from a thread
attached to the ceiling.  You can’t inhale them, but you can jump through the thread so
they fall and hit the ground.  Be careful, though, because they’ll blow up.Power:
None Putt: Putt is a little blue-green worm that pushes boulders down hills at
you.Power: None Rockn: Rockn are blue missiles that come out of holes.Power:
Bomb Rocky: Rocky is a rock with eyes and feet.  Be careful because it often sits on
higher places, waiting to quickly fall down on you.Power: Stone Sandman: Sandman is a
tan thing with a creepy face.  They stay close to the ground at first, but when you get
close, they get taller.
