==Biography==
===Kirby and the Amazing Mirror===
Shadow Kirby will appear at certain points during the game and attack the heroes with a different ability he has obtained. Depending on the location, he will attack using the Fire, Ice, Bomb, or Cutter ability and leave behind either a Maxim Tomato, 1UP, or Invincibility Candy upon his defeat. Once Kirby engages battle with Dark Mind, Shadow Kirby will assist him by giving Kirby the Master ability if he loses it during the fight. It is later revealed that the reason Shadow Kirby had attacked the heroes was because he was trying to protect Mirror World from invaders and did not realize they were actually there to help.
===Kirby Triple Deluxe===
Shadow Kirby serves as the final opponent in single player mode of the sub-game "Kirby Fighters". He uses the same ability as Kirby during the battle.
