'''Yggy Woods''' is a [[Boss]] in the Kirby series. He made his debut in ''[[Kirby Star Allies]]''. He is similar to [[Whispy Woods]], but has a much older-looking appearance, and a red canopy.

He has a similar appearance and attack pattern as [[Whispy Woods]], acting as his "EX" version.

— Vs. Yggy Woods Pause Screen description in Kirby Star Allies

Yggy Woods is a boss in Kirby Star Allies.

He has a similar appearance and attack pattern as Whispy Woods, acting as his "EX" version. Aesthetically, he is made to look older than Whispy; his bark is worn and dark brown, and leaves over his face resemble bushy eyebrows and a mustache. His leaves are an autumnal red, with cherry blossoms blooming among them, and he drops cherries rather than Whispy's usual apples.

Yggy is first seen in Far-Flung Starlight Heroes, being fought in the Falluna Moon stage after Whispy is defeated. He also appears in the Extra Planet δ stage, in Guest Star ???? Star Allies Go!, and in The Ultimate Choice on the Fiery Showdown, Infernal Crisis, and Soul Melter difficulty levels.

Attacks[edit]

Yggy fights very similar to Whispy, but is tougher and drops poisonous cherries instead of apples. He also drops Blados from his canopy, among other things. On occasion, a golden cherry will drop from him, which gives Kirby the Festival ability once swallowed.

Just like Whispy, if all four allies attack Yggy with Fire or Sizzle attacks at once, he will catch fire and take massive damage.

The following table lists all of Yggy Woods' attacks in Kirby Star Allies. Attacks in italics are used in the second phase only:
