Dovos,[1] also referred to as Spooks,[2] are ghost-like monsters in Wario's Woods. They are as common as Spooks. A Dovo can be defeated by receiving two hits from a bomb, changing color upon the first hit. A Pidgit may drop Dovos in their second color, and can therefore be destroyed with only one bomb.
In WarioWare: Smooth Moves, a Dovo make a cameo appearance on the Wario's Woods cartridge, in the Super Nostalgic Entertainment System microgame.
