[[File:KDL Scarfy sprite.png]] Scarfies debut in the first installment of the series, ''[[Kirby's Dream Land]]'', where their official artwork shows them to be a pinkish hue and possess red cheeks. Here, they are encountered only in [[Bubbly Clouds]] and the section of [[Mt. Dedede]] devoted to it. Scarfies slowly float up and down in one place until [[Kirby]] attempts to inhale them, at which point they transform into their cycloptic form and begin to chase him and eventually explode. Defeating them likewise causes them to detonate, harming Kirby if he gets caught in their blast. Many Scarfies are initially hidden, but quickly fly into view once Kirby gets near them.

Scarfies reappear in ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]'' and its remake, ''[[Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land]]''. Although the original [[Nintendo Entertainment System]] game portrays them in the same way as the previous game, including using the same artwork, its [[Game Boy Advance]] remake makes use of the enemy's more recent, orange design.

Here, Scarfies act very similarly to their original appearance. Scarfies that are initially exposed are much more frequent in these games, while those that are hidden usually move onto the same height as Kirby when they reveal themselves. Due to the introduction of [[Copy Ability|Copy Abilities]], they can often be destroyed without being given the chance to transform. Unlike in the previous game, they do not create a harmful explosion when beaten, simply popping like most other enemies instead.

In ''[[Kirby Super Star]]'' and [[Kirby Super Star Ultra|its remake]], Scarfies are found in various stages, retaining their behavior from before. Due to the introduction of a health point system for enemies, not every attack defeats them instantly anymore. Any attack that fails to destroy a Scarfy (including certain Copy Abilities, exhaling air at it and simply touching it) instead angers it, causing it to transform and chase Kirby.

These games also include a rarer variety of Scarfy, which assumes its alternate look and follows Kirby whenever he turns his back to it, but stops and turns back into its initial form when he faces it, in a similar manner as the [[mariowiki:Boo|Boo]] enemies of the ''[[mariowiki:Mario (series)|Mario]]'' series.
