'''Ranger''' is a [[Copy Ability]] that equips [[Kirby]] with a star-studded hunter's cap and a small blunderbuss that shoots stars. This ability allows Kirby to attack foes by firing at them in various ways, and also allows for very long-range attacks. The star attached to the cap works as a headlamp, though this is not ever required to use. This ability made its first (and so far only) appearance in ''[[Kirby and the Forgotten Land]]''. Ranger also has two [[Evolved Copy Ability]] forms, those being [[Noble Ranger]] and [[Space Ranger]].

This ability made its first appearance in ''[[Kirby and the Forgotten Land]]''. Ranger also has two [[Evolved Copy Ability]] forms, those being [[Noble Ranger]] and [[Space Ranger]]. Ranger and its variants are the only abilities that are able to hit the [[Switch|Target Switch]].
