| | While in submarine form, Kirby can move freely about in the water, and can fire torpedoes. These torpedoes can be guided to their target, both in and out of the water, using the [[Rainbow Rope]]. Using a [[Star Dash]] temporarily empowers the torpedoes, allowing them to blast through [[Metal Block]]s. |

| The '''Kirby Submarine''' is a [[Transformation (Kirby and the Rainbow Curse)|transformation]] that [[Kirby]] can undergo in ''[[Kirby and the Rainbow Curse]]''. It transforms him into a small submarine with a periscope, two red window frames, and a rotor. In this form, Kirby can move more freely in the [[Water (environment)|water]], and automatically shoots out torpedoes that can be guided using the [[Rainbow Line|Rainbow Rope]]. The Kirby Submarine is used in the stages [[Kirby Submarine's Torpedo Time]] and [[Deep-Divin' Kirby Submarine]]. Kirby Submarine also appears several times in [[Challenge Mode]].

| == Details ==
| | This transformation is used only in a few places in the story mode. |
| {{Quote|Kirby can turn into a cute little submersible when he has to work underwater. You can guide his missiles with a rainbow rope to hit hard-to-reach targets. But that periscope is just for show--Kirby doesn't even know how to use it.|Kirby Submarine [[Figurine]] description from ''[[Kirby and the Rainbow Curse]]''}}
| |
| Kirby Submarine has greatly enhanced maneuverability in water when compared to his normal form. He holds position in the water, and will move in a straight line to wherever the player taps the stylus, as long as it is in water (waterfalls can also be traversed). If Kirby Submarine exits water, he will fall uncontrollably until landing back in it again. Unlike his normal form, Kirby Submarine ignores [[Rainbow Line|Rainbow Rope]]s, and passes right through them. He also always faces toward the right, and cannot change his facing angle.
| |
|
| |
|
| Kirby Submarine regularly fire sets of three torpedoes without any input, shooting them out of his mouth. These torpedoes will travel through the water in a straight line until they hit an object, from there exploding. The rainbow rope can be used to guide the trajectory of torpedoes. They will automatically stick to the line and follow it until its end, from there flying straight. This is Kirby Submarine's only method of firing in different directions. When 100 [[Point Star]]s are collected, Kirby can charge up to release a powerful Star Torpedo (equivalent to the regular form's [[Star Dash]]) which can pass though enemies and obstacles and break metal blocks. This torpedo will bounce off of walls, lingering for about 10 seconds before exploding.

| | |
| During the Kirby Submarine sections, any [[Bandana Waddle Dee|Waddle Dees]] present will also be turned into submarines, with the same basic capabilities as the Kirby Submarine. Naturally, they will need to rely on the ropes provided by the first player to curve their missile shots.

| == Trivia ==
| |
| [[File:KatRC Kirby Kine transformation.png|thumb|100px|Kirby briefly resembles [[Kine]] while being turned into the Kirby Submarine.]]
| |
| *During the transformation, Kirby is first repainted to resemble [[Kine]], referencing the fact that the Kirby Submarine, like Kine, specializes in traversing water.
| |
| **Conversely, [[:File:KDL2 concept art 113 abilities.jpg|early concept sketches]] for Kine's debut game, ''[[Kirby's Dream Land 2]]'', included an idea for a "Deep Sea Kirby" transformation that strongly resembles the Kirby Submarine.
