Enemy Info Card File:WhispyWoods (1).jpg

Whispy Woods , also sometimes named Whispy, is one of the most iconic bosses of the Kirby series. Starting with Kirby's Dream Land, the first game in the series, he appears in the majority of titles as well as the anime in the form of an autonomous tree, which can perceive and produce human-like emotion with the anthropomorphic face situated right on its trunk. While this boss is usually the first one to be fought by Kirby, on its appearances alone, it has become quite the staple of the Kirby franchise, in the same vein as Kirby's home world, Pop Star.

Game Appearances

Kirby's Adventure/Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land

In Kirby's Adventure and Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land, Whispy Woods is fought as the boss of the first world, Vegetable Valley. Here, he is anchored to one spot and will occasionally drop apples to attack Kirby. He will also blow puffs of breath.

Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards

Whispy Woods shakes apples from its branches (above), and procures thick wood stalks during the battle (below).

Whispy Woods is the final obstacle Kirby will face at the end of the Pop Star realm, in Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards. While the boss itself is anchored to its spot, and rightly so as it is a tree, the foe will take damage based on the bodily extensions it provides during the battle: in the beginning, three smaller versions of Whispy Woods, called Whispy Woods Jr., jump about the stage, oblivious to Kirby, while later on Whispy Woods attempts to injure Kirby by sending out stocky wood spikes, all of which are vulnerable to attack. During the battle, Whispy Woods will consistently shake itself, dropping apples that can be used as projectiles, however, it seems as if the falling fruits were originally intended to act as one of Whispy Woods' attacks, not a beneficiary on Kirby's part. Of all of Whispy Woods' attacks, of which can all be avoided, the least significant is the small puff of air it sporadically blows from its mouth cavity, doing a small amount of damage to Kirby in the event he is in its path.

Like with all enemies and bosses, if Kirby is in possession of a certain copy ability (i.e. Fire, Cutter, etc.) or a combination of two, he will be able to use such powers to injure the boss, instead of the fallen apples provided, as in this battle.

Super Smash Bros. Melee/Super Smash Bros. Brawl

In Super Smash Bros. Melee, Whispy Woods is found in the background of the Green Greens stage. He will occasionally blow, which will move the fighters. Whispy Woods makes a reappearance along with the stage in the game's sequel Super Smash Bros. Brawl, having the same role that he had in the previous game.
