Whispy Woods has appeared in | Whispy Woods has appeared in every ''Super Smash Bros.'' game as a stage hazard for Kirby-based stages. In ''SSB'', he appears at part of the [[smashwiki:Dream Land (SSB)|Dream Land]] stage, occasionally blowing gusts of wind that cause all the players on one side of the stage to slide sideways. Oddly, Whispy's name is misspelt as "Whisper Woods" in the instruction manual. | ||
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. He will also sometimes launch several apples onto the stage, which can be eaten as healing items or thrown at opponents (this is determined at random when the apple is picked up). | In ''[[Super Smash Bros.

*Whispy Woods (not counting his relatives) has appeared in a total of 23 ''Kirby'' games, 18 of which were as a Boss or Mid-Boss. This ranks Whispy Woods as the second most prevalent boss character after [[Kracko]] (not counting [[King Dedede]], who makes appearances as a playable character just as often as a Boss). | *Whispy Woods (not counting his relatives) has appeared in a total of 23 ''Kirby'' games, 18 of which were as a Boss or Mid-Boss.

*Whispy Woods is typically portrayed as being roughly 9 [[Kirby|Kirbies]] tall, before any other transformations or changes in size are taken into account. Given Kirby's height of eight inches, this would make the tree roughly six feet (or 1.83 meters) tall. | *Whispy Woods is typically portrayed as being roughly 9 [[Kirby|Kirbies]] tall, before any other transformations or changes in size are taken into account.

*Prior to ''Kirby Super Star'', and past that up to ''Kirby Tilt 'n' Tumble'', Whispy Woods was depicted without any lower stubs or branches on his sides. From ''Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land'' onward, Whispy fairly consistently has two stubs on his sides which resemble arms to an extent, but are completely useless to the tree. They are occasionally missing in spin-offs such as ''Kirby Mass Attack'' and ''Kirby and the Rainbow Curse'', however. | *Prior to ''Kirby Super Star'', and past that up to ''Kirby Tilt 'n' Tumble'', Whispy Woods was depicted without any lower stubs or branches on his sides.
