    どちらも絵の修行にやってきた女の子で、カービィやデデデ大王とも中がよい。2人は見た目も特技も、敵に体を乗っ取られたときの戦い方も似ているが、同一人物がどうかは不明。= "They are both girls who showed up to practice painting, and get along with Kirby and King Dedede the Great. The two of them also have similar looks and skills, and fought in a similar manner when their bodies were taken over by enemies. But, it’s unknown wether they are the same person or not."

    ↑本名がアドレーヌで、愛称がアドである可能性も高い。= "↑It’s highly possible that Adeleine is the real name and Ado is a nickname."

Controlling people with dark clouds, they frequently appear as the true villains. Kirby's friend, Gooey, is actually the same species as Dark Matter. However, he has no hostility and flies in the sky with a form that has fins similar to Dark Matter's to fight against Zero. In addition, there are enemies like Dark Zero [Dark Nebula's Jpn. name] and 0² (Zero Two), which have similar names and characteristics, but their true nature and connections are not clear.

Two players can play simultaneously, controlling Kirby's partner Gooey. Gooey uses his long tongue to devour enemies, and just like Kirby, he can use Copy Abilities and fuse with his allies. He can also eat enemies that Kirby cannot inhale. In addition to the three companions from "Kirby of the Stars 2" [Kirby's Dream Land 2], ChuChu, Nago, and Pitch also appear, adding to the variety of Copy Ability fusions."
    • 冒険の途中、困っている人たちのお願いにこたえてあげると、アイテムがもらえるなどの特典がある。その中でも鍵となるアイテム「ハートスター」をすべて入手することで、真のボスに挑戦できる。仲間たちとコピー能力の特性、その組み合わせを考えて、冒険を進めていこう。= "During your adventure, you'll receive special rewards, such as items, by answering the requests of those in need.

One day, Kirby and Gooey went fishing. Birds were chirping and the sun was warm. Fishing felt like a nap. While Kirby and their friends were having a carefree time, a pitch-black cloud-like object/mass began approaching 'Popstar'!! The pitch-black cloud stopped high in the sky and spewed out small clouds. Those little clouds scattered everywhere. Then Coo came to the flustered Kirby. "Popstar is in trouble!" The tiny clouds that scattered possessed Great King Dedede and his companions, and began to control them! To drive away the evil clouds and save everyone—and Popstar—Kirby set out with their friends to face the pitch-black cloud."

Instead of the form of Kirby, each copy ability was created from the idea of what kind of action it would be like, such as "spitting fire" and "sticking to the wall (the prototype of the later ninja?)".
