Scatterpuffs[1] are creatures that appear in Yoshi and the Mysterious Book. They are dandelions whose seeds have a mouth and a pair of eyes. If a Yoshi walks through a group of Scatterpuffs, they will be scattered. Their heads can take root on other objects, not only causing boulders to crack, but also preventing enemies from moving; for example, Scatterpuffs' heads that land on a Crazee Dayzee will cause the latter to be embarrassed.

Naming[edit]

"Scatterpuff" is a portmanteau of "scatter" and "puff".
