- Not to be confused with Dark Puff.
Dark Ruff Puffs are pitch black, shady Ruff Puffs that can only be found in rooms 25, 27, and 31 of the Flopside Pit of 100 Trials in Super Paper Mario. Like most "dark" enemies, they are stronger than their relatives in terms of HP and Attack. They attack by spitting black orbs of electricity ("Dark thunder" according to their Catch Card) that are usually relatively easy to avoid, all the more so since they need a couple of seconds to prepare. It is recommended that that the player uses Dottie to attack it unseen, Barry's ability or Peach's umbrella when fighting them, so as to counter their attacks.
