Kirby's Rainbow Resort

Hiya folks! BabyCharmander here with this Helper guide. :D Hope you find this guide, well… helpful!

A Helper cannot stay off-screen. If it ends up off-screen for whatever reason, it will turn into a star and rush back to Kirby before turning into a Helper again.

Kirby can share food that he’s recently eaten with his Helpers! Make Kirby get close to the Helper, and he’ll do a mouth-to-mouth food transfer. (Ouch, wouldn’t wanna’ do that with a Bugzzy…)

Not all abilities yield Helpers! Limited-use abilities such as Crash, Microphone, Cook, Sleep, and Paint don't give you a Helper. You can identify these limited-use abilities because they don’t give Kirby a hat.

Unlike Kirby, most Helpers can’t stay in the air forever! If Kirby’s flying really high into the air and the Helper gets tired, it’ll grab onto Kirby’s foot! Kirby can’t fly quite as fast with this added weight. (Note: Not all Helpers will have to cling onto Kirby. These will be specified in the list below.)

Most Helpers will have the same abilities as Kirby. (Note: There are a few exceptions to this. These will be specified in the list below.)

Helpers can change into other Helpers, or even back into the ability that they started from! To change your Helper, hold down “A” when Kirby has an ability and he’ll throw the hat at the Helper, which will change it. When Kirby doesn’t have an ability, hold down “A” and the Helper will turn back into an ability hat, which Kirby can eat to get the ability again.

A certain ability will always yield the same Helper. It doesn’t matter if you got your Cutter ability from a Poppy Bro. Jr. throwing around a boomerang—you’ll still get a Sir Kibble.

Helper	Description	Ability
Biospark	Biospark is a little ninja (coughthat’snotasgoodasapiratecough) that’s covered in armor. And yes, he does have 1337 \|-\|a><><0r /\/I/\/ja 5\|<i11z. He can also cling to walls, which is helpful if he finds himself falling off a cliff.	Ninja
Birdon	Birdons are little round birds that usually wear a pilot’s helmet. They can flap their wings to fly, and are one of the few Helpers that don’t need to grab onto Kirby when he’s flying.	Wing
Blade Knight	Blade Knights are fierce Dreamlanders that cover themselves in armor and attack with swords! They’re pretty tough, so be glad if you have them as a Helper. (Psst, here’s a secret: Blade Knights are really cyclopses, and that pink thing isn’t actually part of their helmet… rather, it’s really a giant tongue! Maybe that’s why they wear helmets…)	Sword
Bonkers	Bonkers is a great big monkey (yes, monkey—there are no humans in Kirby’s world!) in armor that swings around a giant hammer. He’s a mini-boss, though, so you’ll have to beat him up first before you can swallow him and make him your Helper. He can use his hammer to hit wooden switches in the ground. He’s one of the bigger Helpers, though, so he can get stuck in small tunnels. He’s also the only Helper that doesn’t have every single attack that Kirby does—he can’t use Hammer Throw.	Hammer
Bugzzy	Bugzzy is a MASSIVE beetle with wrestling-type attacks. He’s also a mini-boss, so you’ll have to beat him up first before you can swallow him and make him your Helper. This thing has some CRAZY attacks, but unfortunately I don’t think they work too well on bosses… Also, because of his big size, he can sometimes get stuck in small tunnels.	Suplex
Burnin' Leo	Burnin’ Leos look kinda’ like a blue version of Kirby with his head on fire, but they’re not—their eyes are too big to be Kirby’s eyes. (And I’m not quite sure if that’s actually a fire on their head, since it doesn’t go out when it jumps in water!) What’s really interesting about these things is that while Fire Kirby can’t light a fire underwater, they can! I’m sure you can find a use for that when you might have to light a fuse underwater…	Fire
Capsul J	Capsul J’s are… well… to be honest, I don’t know. They’re either robots, or they’re some kind of Waddle Dee or Waddle Doo with a space suit on. Maybe they’re their own species? Who knows. Either way, they attack by blasting themselves at their enemies. They’re also one of the few Helpers that don’t need to grab onto Kirby when he’s flying.	Jet
Chilly	Chillies are living snowmen! Unlike Frosty, though, they won’t be back again someday. :( Not if they take too much damage, anyway. They slip and slide around the stages to move. Whee!	Ice
GIM	GIMs are spiffy little robots with a single paw, a single eye (or maybe two eyes? I can’t tell), Sonic-style shoes, and /\/\ /-\ \|) y0-y0 5\|<i11z!! (Five bucks if you can read that.) Erm, yes. They use a giant yo-yo to attack.	Yo-yo
Helper	Helper is an odd little robot thing that will only appear when Kirby’s flying through Nova with his Star Chariot. It can fly around and shoot stars at enemies, but not much more than that.	Star Chariot
Knuckle Joe	Knuckle Joe isn’t exactly Dreamlander-like since he has legs, but whatever he is, he’s cool! This pointy-eared boy can fight pretty well, so be thankful if you end up with him as your Helper!	Fighter
Parasol Waddle Dee	Parasol Waddle Dees, or Parasol Dees for short, are basically average Waddle Dees that wield parasols. They can either attack with their parasols or use them to drift around lazily in the air…	Parasol
Plasma Wisp	These guys are big balls of electricity—er, plasma, or whatever you wanna’ call it—with eyes and gloved hands. These guys can float freely around the stage! They’re also one of the few Helpers that don’t need to hold on to Kirby when he’s flying.	Plasma
Poppy Bro. Jr.	Poppy Bro. Jr. is a weird clown-like guy that likes to annoy people by throwing bombs, chucking boomerangs, and rolling around on giant apples. If he’s your Helper, though, he’ll just throw bombs.	Bomb
Rocky	Rockies are pretty much living rocks with eyes, feet, and a headband. Like Stone Kirby, they can turn into various heavy objects and slide down slopes! He can also hit wooden switches that are stuck in the ground. …Although they’re apparently very fragile, because when they’re attacked, they shatter! Oh well, they put themselves back together pretty quickly.	Stone
Simirror	Simirrors are little Black Mages—er, Dreamlanders that have a magic wand that can shoot out mirrors at their enemies. It might not sound like much, but it’s actually one of the more powerful Helpers, because those mirrors it shoots out will cause any attack that their enemy makes to bounce back at them! They’ll also do damage on their own.	Mirror
Sir Kibble	Sir Kibbles are little round… things covered in armor. What kind of things? I don’t know. Maybe they’re puffballs or Waddle Dees, or maybe they’re their own species! (...Or maybe they’re living suits of armor… That would be odd.) They have a boomerang-blade attached to their helmet that they can yank off and chuck at nearby enemies.	Cutter
T.A.C.	T.A.C.s are sneaky little catburglars (har har har) that like to go around and steal your Helpers! If you get one as your Helper, though, he can steal an enemy’s ability and become that ability’s Helper—then turn back again! So, these guys are pretty much every Helper packed into one. Cool!	Copy
Waddle Doo	AAAH! CYCLOPS! These guys are kinda’ like Waddle Dees, except they have two antennae and one massive eye that shoots out laser beams. . . .Okay, maybe not quite like Waddle Dees, but their name suggests that they’re related. These guys can be helpful if you need to hit a switch on the other side of a wall.	Beam
Wheelie	Wheelies are living, one-wheeled motorcycles! Cool, huh? They can only attack by rushing forward, though. However, what’s cool about these Helpers is that Kirby can actually ride them! Have ‘im hop onto the Wheelie and he’ll become Wheelie Rider Kirby! Born to be wiiiild~	Wheel, Wheelie Rider
