One of Kirby's Copy abilities. Sometimes mistakenly called Broom. The power only makes one appearance in Kirby's Dream Land 3. It is also the long awaited christening of an ability to the recurring series enemy Broom Hatter who, despite being in other games with ability copying, never granted one before.
Only the anime version gives Kirby a special outfit to go along with it.
Games
Kirby's Dream Land 3
The Clean ability is meant less for combat and more for uncovering secrets and earning Heart Stars. Certain occurrences of "dirt" or "dust" in stages that need to be cleared away can only be removed with this power. This can be cleaning off a flower to change its color or sweeping a grimy floor.
Kirby pulls out a broom and sweeps when activating his ability. It pushes forward a cloud of dust that can damage foes.
Rick produces a tiny duster and gingerly swabs in front of himself.
Coo transforms into a giant feather duster wielded by Kirby and is brushed forward. In this state, the pair lose their elevation and fall back to the ground.
Kine produces a plunger from his mouth. It can catch enemies in its cupped end and hurtle them forward, much like inhaling and spitting out a foe does. However, Kine is able to move with the plunger deployed and it can only catch one item at a time. This is the only variant of the Clean ability that cannot clear away dirt.
Nago has Kirby transform into a cloth and uses him to mop the floor as he scuttles forward.
Chuchu and Kirby ride the broom like a witch and can fly around without inhaling air. Only the lower, back side where the broom's bristles lie can inflict damage.
Pitch is transformed into a bucket of water that Kirby empties. The hurtled blob of water travels in an arc and bursts into four smaller bubbles, breaking diagonally, after striking a target. In addition to the other cleaning functions, Pitch's Clean can be used to water certain sprouting flowers to help them grow.
Anime
Clean is greatly improved upon and updated for its debut in the animated series. He gains a yellow kerchief with green stars over his head, with a purple and yellow broom. The sparkles that shoot from it when swung can hurt enemies or cause any garbage and grime to magically disappear. Kirby can also sit on the broom and fly quickly through the air.
