Weights,[1][2] otherwise known as blocks,[3] are weapons that only appear in Wario Land II. They replace Pouncers from Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3; unlike them, however, they lack any spikes and are carried and routinely dropped by D-Bats. They also have a blue color, a more rectangular shape, and noses similar to Wario's, and they never change expressions when dropping. They are also never harmful, transforming Wario into Flat Wario if it lands on him.

Weights are found in the following levels, in the mentioned quantities:
