List of glitches

Juggling Stock Mecha Knight

If Kirby or Meta Knight defeat Stock Mecha Knight while its claw tail is not currently present, it flies up into the air. However, in The True Arena, constantly hitting Stock Mecha Knight during this state before it lands (such as with the Archer ability) will cause it to get sent up over and over again.

Rapidly changing animations

On any stage where food is hovering above water such as Overload Ocean - Stage 3, if the player jumps out of the water, inhales the food and holds up before touching the surface, the game will rapidly switch between big-belly Kirby with and without goggles while the sound of entering and exiting water plays back multiple times in a row.

Sliding in place

Using any Copy Ability, if Kirby discards his ability and slides at around the same time, he slides without going anywhere. This glitch first appeared in Kirby: Triple Deluxe.

Out of bounds during Clanky Woods battle

This glitch will only work with Meta Knight or with certain Copy Abilities that make Kirby fly/hover faster than usual, such as Jet. After finishing the second phase of the Clanky Woods battle, the player should be standing facing right on the first line present on any white tile before Clanky Woods uses the screw in the background. Immediately after the player is given back control for the start of phase 3, they should fly up and to the right by mashing the A Button (or holding A in Jet's case). If done fast enough and as long as they keep holding right on the Circle Pad or + Control Pad, Meta Knight or Kirby will stay on top of the wall, letting them avoid all of Clanky Woods' attacks. The glitch will end when the player lets go of right.
