Its move-set is largely the same as in ''Kirby Star Allies'', albeit with the omission of the "Enhanced Water Gun" move due to the lack of bodies of water in all of the game's [[Battle Stage]]s. | ||

Water actually first appeared as a Copy Ability in ''[[Kirby: Right Back at Ya!]]''. It makes a single appearance in the episode [[Air-Ride-in-Style - Part II]] as the result of it being one of the winners in the Japan-only ''[[Kirby of the Stars: New Ability Contest]]'' (being submitted by Takahiro Tonoe from Aichi prefecture).

However, it is only used in a dream sequence, making its [[canon|canonicity]] questionable. Kirby gains this ability by inhaling large amounts of water from the ocean. | ||
Water Kirby in the anime bears a somewhat different design to his later appearance in the games. He has a slightly different crown and his body has a blue, translucent, water-like texture. Despite this, the ability functions largely the same as it would later, as Kirby uses spouts of water from his mouth to attack. Notably, the ability allows him to use the [[Water Gun]] outside of water in this instance. | Water Kirby in the anime bears a somewhat different design to his later appearance in the games.

*Water was intended to appear in the canceled ''[[Kirby for Nintendo GameCube]]'' game, which would have marked its first game appearance. Its design in the game resembled the ''Kirby: Right Back at Ya!'' one a lot more than the later ''Kirby's Return to Dream Land'' design. | |||
