Wario can achieve this reaction in a variety of ways. In ''[[Wario Land II]]'', Wario will become puffy if he is stung by a [[Bee (Wario Land II)|bee]] or [[giant bee|their giant counterpart]]. In ''[[Wario Land 3]]'', the change will occur if he gets stung by a [[Jellybob (Wario Land 3)|Pneumo]] or a [[Haridama]], gets hit by the [[Kuri|Igaguri]] [[Wolfenboss]] spawns, or getting jabbed by [[Helio (Wario Land 3)|Yellow Belly]]'s needles. In ''[[Wario Land 4]]'' he must get stung by a [[Beezley]], get hit by the arrow that is shot by a [[Bow Balloon]], or get hit by the minions of the boss [[Catbat]].  

He will then swell, filling his head with air, allowing him to slowly float upwards. This is usually used to get up to a high place, or as a means to be ejected from an area such as in boss battles like Yellow Belly and Wolfenboss.

When Wario floats up into a ceiling, gets hurt, or is unable to continue to float up for any other reason, he will revert to his normal form and fall back towards the ground.

In ''Wario Land 4'', Puffy Wario can blow some air to get a vertical boost by pressing the jump button.
