- Not to be confused with Dark Ruff Puff.
The Dark Puff is a cloud enemy related to the Ruff Puff in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. It is shaded gray like most enemies in Boggly Woods, and are often seen alongside Clefts and Pale Piranhas.
Though they are statistically rather weak, they have the ability to use a Lightning Charge attack, but it requires charging. A charged-up Dark Puff will hurt Mario if he jumps on it; if Mario is electrified himself, he can jump on said Dark Puff without taking damage.
