Star Rod (Kirby)

The Star Rod is an important item in the Kirby series, first appearing in Kirby's Adventure for the NES. In the series, Kirby used to to battle Nightmare and thus save his planet. While it does give Kirby an added ability, it is not commonly considered a copy ability seeing that you don't have to gobble up an enemy to earn this power. In the games that it appears in it is usually used in the end of the game. The Star Rod has as of yet only appeared in two Kirby games, including Kirby's Advneture and Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land. It also appeared in all three Super Smash Bros. video games as an item, which include Super Smash Bros., Super Smash Bros. Melee, and Super Smash Bros. Brawl.
