Kirby become an extremely slow moving, invincible
titan that destroys enemies just by touching them. (Useless
against bosses!)

new, secret ability! If you collect all the pieces of the
Ghost medal, Kirby can gain this power. He floats around in
a spooky way, and can't attack by himself.

You possess your enemies! (Normal ones
only, no bosses) You can then control them, using their
attacks by hitting B, or flying by pressing A. Press select

Waddle Dees are only good as shields though.
There is no upgrade.
Triple Star
The final ability! Dorocche uses this strange weapon when
you battle him, but upon defeating him you gain it for
yourself. Three stars revolve around Kirby, and he can fling
them forward and control them somewhat with the directional
pad to damage enemies like the final boss.
