__TOC__
==History==
===''Paper Mario''===
In ''[[Paper Mario]]'', Ruff Puffs serve as the minions of [[Huff N. Puff]], who they resemble a miniature version of. They appear only in [[Flower Fields]], though a weaker variant, the [[Tuff Puff]], is fought alongside Huff N. Puff in [[Cloudy Climb]]. Their primary method of attack is to ram into Mario.

===''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''===
In ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', they appear inside [[Riverside Station]]. They attack by ramming into Mario or the active partner. They can also electrify themselves, at which point on the next turn they will attack both Mario and the active partner with lightning bolts. They cannot be attacked directly while they are electrified. Additionally, they are the only type of Puff to not appear in the [[Pit of 100 Trials (Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door)|Pit of 100 Trials]].

In ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', Ruff Puffs appear in the [[Overthere Stair]] and in the [[Flipside Pit of 100 Trials]]. They attack by firing electric balls at the heroes.

===''Super Paper Mario''===
In the game ''[[Paper Mario]]'', '''Tuff Puffs''' are [[Ruff Puff]]s that are a part of [[Huff N. Puff]]. They appear after [[Mario]] and his team attack Huff N. Puff (they break off Huff N. Puff) and provide backup during battle. Huff N. Puff will swallow these guys up to restore HP.

Tattle: This is Huff N. Puff. He's a giant cloud monster. His thunder attack is very dangerous. If you don't defend, you'll take massive damage. When you attack Huff N. Puff, little clouds called Tuff Puffs come out. Their number is based on the amount of damage you do. If you leave the Tuff Puffs, Huff N. Puff will swallow them up and restore his HP. You need to use smart tactics to beat this guy, Mario.

This is a Ruff Puff. Ruff Puffs are nasty little cloud henchmen of Huff N. Puff. Ruff Puffs float in the air, so a [[Jump]] attack or something similar may be best. Of course, I'd be more than happy to give 'em a Headbonk! It's your call, Mario.

===Dark Puff===
[[de:Schniffi]]
*'''Stats:''' HP: 3, Attack: 2, Defense: 0
[[it:Nuvolino]]
*'''Locations:''' [[Boggly Woods]], [[Glitzville]], [[Pit of 100 Trials]] (Levels 11-19)
*'''Tattle:''' That's a Dark Puff.  It's basically a tiny, mean thunderhead. Max HP is 3, Attack is 2 and Defense is 0. Sometimes it'll charge itself with electricity.  Don't touch it when it does! Yowch! You know what I mean, right?  Brzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzt!  Shocking! After it charges itself, it'll totally zap you with lightning.  Beat it as fast as you can.
*'''Tattle Number:''' 67
*'''Tattle Log:''' A thunderhead that attacks with lightning. Don't touch it when it's charged up, our you'll be in for a shock.
 
===Ice Puff===
*'''Stats:''' HP: 9, Attack: 4, Defense: 0
*'''Locations:''' [[Fahr Outpost]], [[Pit of 100 Trials]] (Levels 51-59)
*'''Tattle:''' That's an Ice Puff.  It's a mean snow cloud that appears in cold areas. Max HP is 9, Attack is 4 and Defense is 0. It swoops down and uses cold breath to attack.  Trust me, it's NOT refreshing. That cold breath can freeze us, so try to avoid it. Also, if we touch it when it's storing cold energy, we'll get hurt.  Isn't that super-weak? They're vulnerable to fire, so let's try that, maybe.
*'''Tattle Number:''' 69
*'''Tattle Log:''' Ruff Puff's chilly brother, it will sometimes freeze you with its cold breath.
 
===Poison Puff===
*'''Stats:''' HP: 15, Attack: 8, Defense: 0
*'''Locations:''' [[Pit of 100 Trials]] (Levels 91-99)
*'''Tattle:''' That's a Poison Puff.  Basically just a puff of poisonous air. Max HP is 15, Attack is 8 and Defense is 0. Its poison-gas attack is 10! These things charge you, but they also save up toxins and poison you with them. Scum! Plus, you can't touch them when they're saving up toxins or you'll get hurt. Lame!
*'''Tattle Number:''' 70
*'''Tattle Log:''' A poisonous cloud creature. It'll charge you or try to poison you, and if you touch it while it's storing poison, you'll get hurt.
 
===Ruff Puff===
*'''Stats:''' HP: 7, Attack: 4, Defense: 0
*'''Locations:''' [[Riverside Station]]
*'''Tattle:''' This is a Ruff Puff.  Don't confuse them with Dark Puffs... Although I don't think the world would end if you DID confuse them, but anyway... Max HP is 7, Attack is 4, and Defense is 0. They swoop at you or charge themselves with electricity before unleashing lightning. Oh, and if you touch them while they're charged, you'll get a shock!
*'''Tattle Number:''' 68
*'''Tattle: Log''' A relative of the Dark Puff... or perhaps just a different-colored one. It charges up and shocks you with lightning.
