|Stomp Jump
|'''ジャンププレス'''<br>''Stomp Jump''
|Fiery Puffer charges a moment before launching himself into the air. From there he moves forward a little before quickly stomping into the ground, leaving a fire trail on the stomp spot. Fiery Puffer will always do this attack twice in a row. During the second phase of the battle, the fire trail will last much longer and the attack will be much larger because of Fiery Puffer's increased size.

|Rolling Tackle
|'''ヴォルガタックル・メビウス'''<br>''Fiery Tackle [[wikipedia:Möbius strip|Möbius]]''
|Fiery Puffer expands into a ball and starts rolling to charge up.

This attack leaves a fire trail behind on the spot the Puffer rolls, and Fiery Puffer is invincible for the entire attack. In the second phase of the battle, this Fiery Puffer will expand much more, covering nearly the entire arena from top to bottom. This makes dodging the attack much more difficult, and nearly impossible without proper upgrades. He can also not go around the walls, but instead goes on and off the ceiling when off-screen. There is also a version of the attack where he bounces between the two walls three times. It is possible to tell whether he is going to be on or off the ceiling by where he is rolling in the background when he uses the attack. He can do the first-phase version though.
