Dance

The Dance (Japanese: ダンス) is one of Starfy and Starly's actions. After Starfy or Starly defeat a boss character and clear its stage, he/she look relieved and move near the middle of the screen. They then face the front of the screen and put on a large smile to show off this dance. While performing this dance, Starfy or Starly often hold a large grin on their face.

Starfy and Starly's dance moves

After the dance, Starfy and Starly swim towards the front of the screen forming the path of a stretched 'C'. They then raise their right arm and put on a wider grin.

In the Game Boy Advance games, Starfy and Starly wink with their left eye after the dance. They never seem to wink in Densetsu no Starfy 4 and The Legendary Starfy.
