Fighting Puftoss requires that 250 [[banana]]s be fed to [[Scoff]] at the [[Troff 'n' Scoff]] location | Fighting Puftoss requires that 250 [[banana]]s be fed to [[Scoff]] at the [[Troff 'n' Scoff]] location so that [[Troff]] can unlock the boss door. [[Lanky Kong]] is the [[Kong]] who is selected to fight Puftoss. When entering the boss door, Lanky finds himself in a dark, isolated galleon area while sitting inside of a small motorboat shaped like a coconut half. After a few seconds, the screen turns to a silhouette, which lets out a growl. After falling backward, Lanky puts on the boat's light to help him identify where the source of the growl. Puftoss appears in front of Lanky after he waves in front of the light, staring at him directly. After Puftoss lets out a large roar, the battle starts. | ||
During gameplay, Puftoss sits in the center of the pool during the battle. He changes direction to try and spit fireballs at Lanky. Lanky can damage Puftoss by bringing electrical poles out from the water by driving through all five DK stars, each having a 30-second timer and resetting as he drives through each one. If done on time, the poles generate an electric current that electrocutes Puftoss, otherwise the poles go back into the water. Puftoss cannot damage Lanky on contact. Puftoss's pattern changes during every round: In the second round, he shoots out four fireballs and slams the water, creating two blue shockwaves, which disappear on contact with the electric poles. The DK stars become increasingly smaller in round, and their corresponding timer decreases by an additional five seconds: starting with 25, then 20, followed by 15, and lastly 10 seconds. After a third hit, Puftoss begins to utilize another attack in which it spits a large fireball in the air that then divides itself into smaller fireballs to rain on to the arena for about ten seconds. After a third hit, Puftoss begins spitting out a Puftup, which explodes after a while. After a fourth hit, Puftoss begins shooting out five fireballs, then a Puftup, then five more fireballs, and lastly causes it to rain fireballs. Puftoss is defeated after a fifth hit, causing it to inflate and then deflate after flying around the arena while air is released from its mouth. Afterwards, Puftoss is reduced to being small and flat, and it floats down to the water slowly, vanishing on contact with it, and the [[Boss Key]] appears on the water's surface for Lanky to collect. | During gameplay, Puftoss sits in the center of the pool during the battle.
