Wario about to be blown upward by a Cyclone Generator

Cyclone Generators[1] are weathervane statues that first appear in Wario World, where they are found exclusively in Pecan Sands. If Wario attacks one, it will whip up a cyclone and cause him to spiral upward. This allows Wario to reach high ledges he would not be able to otherwise.
