Phan Phan stars in Episode 94 of the ''[[Kirby: Right Back at Ya!]]'' anime, called Cowardly Creature, where it's portrayed as a timid elephant that's scared of squirrels and likes apples and escaped from the [[Night Mare Enterprises]]' [[Monster]] training school. It then turned violent by [[Whippy (monster)|Whippy]], another Monster sent by NME, and Kirby is forced to defeat Phan Phan. Fortunately, Phan Phan is brought back to its goodness after the battle.
'''Phan Phan''' appears as a [[monster]] in the ''[[Kirby: Right Back at Ya!]]'' episode [[Cowardly Creature]]. In this episode, Phan Phan escapes by unknown means from [[Night Mare Enterprises]]' "Young Monsters of the Future" training school and ends up in [[Dream Land (anime)|Dream Land]], where it causes havoc in [[Cappy Town]] while wearing a clown mask and nose.

Kirby and Phan Phan later become friends, but the monster [[Whippy (monster|Whippy]] is sent to subdue Phan Phan and turn it hostile again. After a lengthy battle, Kirby gathers the courage to face his former friend and uses the [[Throw]] [[Copy Ability]] to grab and dispose of Whippy, returning Phan Phan to its normal self again.

— King Dedede about Phan Phan in Revenge of the King, Kirby Super Star Ultra

Phan Phan is a Mid-Boss that debuted in Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land, where it replaces Rolling Turtle from the original Kirby's Adventure, and has since appeared in various other games of the Kirby series. It was last seen as an enemy in Template:KSSU, where it appeared in Revenge of the King and The True Arena. Depending on the game, it yields either the Throw or the Suplex Copy Ability when Kirby inhales and swallows it after defeating it.

Phan Phan's appearance is similar to that of an elephant, except that it has only two legs and a spherical body. It has large, black eyes, and three strans of hair, similar to the two strands of hair on Waddle Doo. Phan Phan often attacks by rolling at Kirby, lifting him and throwing him with his ears, and stomping on him. It also throws apples at Kirby, which can be inhaled and spat out at Phan Phan to deal damage.

The name "Phan Phan" is derived from the word elephant.
