Abilities

Chocolate Disco functions as a tool that grants D-I-S-C-O great control over flying objects in a large zone. As a result, Gyro Zeppeli and his Steel Balls are at a disadvantage against him.

However, its tool-like nature and lack of any way to directly harm someone means that D-I-S-C-O is powerless at close range and relies on using miscellaneous objects he keeps on him to attack.

Repositioning

D-I-S-C-O teleports an incoming Steel Ball to Gyro Zeppeli

When D-I-S-C-O activates Chocolate Disco, a grid with the rows labeled as letters and columns labeled as numbers appear from his feet, covering about twenty feet in front of him.[2]

By pressing one or several buttons on the arm guard, any flying projectile or object can be instantly transported to the corresponding area(s) (e.g. by pressing F5 on the arm guard, an object is teleported onto the F5 space), falling down.[2]

D-I-S-C-O typically makes various harmful objects like nails or acid fall down on his target and also defends himself from projectiles by teleporting them away from him and into the assailant.[2]

The weakness of this ability is that D-I-S-C-O must correctly assert in which coordinates he wants to teleport the flying objects to attack. If he misses, he becomes defenseless at close range.[3]
