Once affected, he then swells up and fills his head with air, allowing him to slowly float upwards. This is usually used to get up to a high place, or as a means to be ejected from an area such as in boss battles like Yellow Belly and Wolfenboss. When Wario floats up into a ceiling, gets hurt, or is unable to continue to float up for any other reason, he will revert to his normal form and fall back towards the ground.


==History==
[[File:puffywarioshot.png|left|frame|Puffy Wario in ''Wario Land II'']]
===''Wario Land'' series===
'''Puffy Wario''', also known as '''Puff Daddy Wario'''<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20010501125924/http://www.warioland3.com/strategy/body.asp?key_id=S4_RED&land_id=S4 Official American ''Wario Land 3'' website, Wayback Archive]</ref>, is one of [[Wario]]'s many transformations in the ''[[Wario Land (series)|Wario Land]]'' series of games. Wario can achieve this transformation in a variety of ways. In ''[[Wario Land II]]'', Wario will become puffy if he is stung by a [[Bee (Wario Land II)|Bee]] or [[Giant Bee|their giant counterpart]]. In ''[[Wario Land 3]]'', the change will occur if he gets stung by a [[Jellybob (Wario Land 3)|Pneumo]] or a [[Water Spark]], gets hit by the shelled [[Chestnut]]s [[Wolfenboss]] spawns, or get jabbed by [[Helio (Wario Land 3)|Yellow Belly]]'s needles. In ''[[Wario Land 4]]'' he must get stung by a [[Beezley]], get hit by the arrow that is shot by a [[Bow Balloon]], or get hit by the minions of the boss [[Catbat]].

In ''[[Wario Land II]]'', Wario will become puffy if he is stung by a [[Bee (Wario Land II)|bee]] or [[giant bee|their giant counterpart]]. In ''[[Wario Land 3]]'', the change will occur if he gets stung by a [[Jellybob (Wario Land 3)|Pneumo]] or a [[Haridama]], gets hit by the [[Kuri|Igaguri]] [[Wolfenboss]] spawns, or getting jabbed by [[Helio (Wario Land 3)|Yellow Belly]]'s needles. In ''[[Wario Land 4]]'' he must get stung by a [[Beezley]], get hit by the arrow that is shot by a [[Bow Balloon]], or get hit by the minions of the boss [[Catbat]]. In ''Wario Land 4'', Puffy Wario can blow some air to get a vertical boost by pressing the jump button.


===''Super Mario-kun''===
He will then swell, filling his head with air, allowing him to slowly float upward like [[Kirby]] and [[Balloon Mario]] from ''[[Super Mario World]]''. This is usually used to get up to a high place, or as a form of annoyance, because in the level [[Wildflower Fields]] in ''Wario Land 4'', there is an area with spikes at on the ceiling, with hard-to-avoid [[Beezley]]s nearby. So when Wario unintentionally floats, he will get hurt by the spikes.
In ''[[Super Mario-kun]]'', Wario becomes Puffy Wario the same method as in ''Wario Land 4''.


===''Densetsu no Starfy 3''===
When Wario floats up into a ceiling, gets hurt, or is unable to continue to float up for any other reason, he will revert to his normal form and fall back towards the ground.
{{rewrite-expand|specifics on Puffy Wario's role}}
In ''[[Densetsu no Starfy 3]]'', Puffy Wario is one of Wario's forms that he uses during his [[History of Wario#Densetsu no Starfy 3|guest appearance]] in [[starfywiki:Undersea Ruins|Kaitei Iseki]], alongside [[Flaming Wario]] and [[Bubble Wario]].


===''WarioWare: Move It!''===
In ''Wario Land 4'', Puffy Wario can blow some air to ascend faster than previous versions of Puffy Wario.
In ''[[WarioWare: Move It!]]'', when Wario becomes stuck in the hole where the gold statue used to be in the game's ending, he puffs out his cheeks similar to Puffy Wario while flapping his arms as he tries to get out.

*'''Nintendo 3DS Ambassador Program digital manual bio:''' "''Press {{button|3ds|Padleftright}} to move and {{button|3ds|B}} to quickly float upward.''"


In ''[[Super Mario-Kun]]'', Wario becomes Puffy Wario the same method as in ''Wario Land 4''.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
[[File:MLSS Wario Unused Sprite 2.png|frame]]
*Puffy Wario was one of three Wario transformations appearing in ''[[starfywiki:Densetsu no Starfy 3|Densetsu no Stafy 3]]'', along with [[Flaming Wario]] and [[Bubble Wario]] in Wario's [[Wario#Densetsu no Stafy 3|guest appearance]] in [[starfywiki:Undersea Ruins|Undersea Ruins]].
*Although not an actual display of the form, his planned cameo in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' depicted Wario briefly adopting similar features as well as his face turning purple due to his disagreeing with the taste of the [[Starbeans Cafe]] blend.
