Dark Mind has three forms. In the first, he wears a mask resembling an animal skull with large golden spikes coming out from it that conceals most of his face. The main body is usually covered by his large, fiery cloak, which reveals itself to have a fiery-looking glowing eyeball with seven metallic spikes protruding out from it, including two | Dark Mind has three forms. In the first, he wears a mask resembling an animal skull with large golden spikes coming out from it that conceals most of his face. The main body is usually covered by his large, fiery cloak, which reveals itself to have a fiery-looking glowing eyeball with seven metallic spikes protruding out from it, including two curved large ones on top. He also has two grey floating hands with long silvery claws, in addition to carrying two hexagonal golden-framed mirrors that can be used in some attacks. | ||
The second form is a glowing orange, fiery-looking eyeball that is essentially a larger version of the one seen on Dark Mind's first form. Further details can be discerned from it, including a black sclera with visible glowing lines as well as a golden-colored pupil. Like before, Dark Mind also has the same two mirrors which this time are used for more elaborate attack patterns. Lastly, Dark Mind's final form resembles a smaller version of the glowing eyeball seen earlier, but with a white aura and lacking the mirrors he used to have on previous forms. | The second form is a glowing orange, fiery-looking eyeball that is essentially a larger version of the one seen on Dark Mind's first form.

When the Kirbys defeat [[Dark Meta Knight]], a portal suddenly appears in the center of the arena, sending them into a fight against Dark Mind's first form. To help the Kirbys, [[Meta Knight]] tosses in his own sword, which Kirby can pick up to get the [[Master]] ability. The battle doesn't start until Kirby picks up the sword. | When the Kirbys defeat [[Dark Meta Knight]], a portal suddenly appears in the center of the arena, sending them into a fight against Dark Mind's first form.

When the battle against Dark Mind's first form begins, he will initially be intangible to most of Kirby's attacks for a while. Dark Mind is capable of using various attacks from shooting star projectiles to teleporting and even spinning his mirrors to attack the Kirbys.

Dark Mind can be attacked at any point, but he has a special weak point (represented by a fiery-looking orange eye) that he sometimes reveals when shooting star projectiles, and can be attacked to make him recoil and take more damage. | ||
Dark Mind's first form is fought four times throughout the main story, with each phase separated by three rest areas featuring optional items and copy abilities found in challenges. If Kirby loses the [[Master]] ability before the next rematch, the golden sword will appear once again for him to regain the ability, under similar circumstances. The following lists the various arena formations for each rematch of Dark Mind's first form: | Dark Mind's first form is fought four times throughout the main story, with each phase separated by three rest areas featuring optional items and copy abilities found in challenges.
