Burrow underground with your mighty drill! You can use this to dodge enemy attacks. If you dig in certain spots, you might be able to sneak into off-limits areas! Heh heh...

— Drill's figure description in Kirby and the Forgotten Land

Drill is a Copy Ability that equips Kirby with a yellow hard hat with a visor and a large drill on top. This ability allows Kirby to attack foes either directly using the drill, or by digging into the ground and popping up elsewhere to attack from below. This ability made its first (and so far only) appearance in Kirby and the Forgotten Land.

In addition to battling enemies, the Drill ability is also useful for unearthing various items from glowing dirt patches on the ground. Kirby can find a blueprint, which can then can be taken to Waddle Dee's Weapons Shop to evolve the Copy Ability into new forms. There are two evolved forms for Drill in the game—Pencil Drill and Twin Drill. Pencil Drill Kirby can shoot out a pencil projectile out from his hat when he pops up out of the ground. Twin Drill uses two drills and can attack enemies while digging underneath them.
