Fluffy Phantom

Fluffy Phantoms are cloud enemies made of cotton wool that appear in Yoshi's Woolly World and Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World. They have the ability to blow gusts of wind, and they appear in the level Flying-Carpet Cruise, where they use this ability to move magic carpets. Yoshi can use this to his advantage and reach higher places while on a magic carpet. Some Fluffy Phantoms can be found on the ceiling, where their gusts of wind serve more as a hindrance as they can push Yoshi's carpet towards a bottomless pit.

They will usually appear without warning, and can hurt Yoshi on contact, although they can be stunned by throwing a yarn ball at them, which causes them to retreat to the edge of the screen, in some cases revealing items such as beads.
