'''Ruff Puffs''' are cloud enemies that appear in the [[Paper Mario (series)|''Paper Mario'' series]]. The name "Ruff Puff" comes from a corruption of the word "rough", while the "puff" part of their name refers to them being puffy clouds.
'''Ruff Puffs''' are cloud enemies that appear in the ''[[Paper Mario]]'' series. They attack by bonking people in the head in the first game, and slamming into them in the latter two. A Ruff Puff's signature move is its ability to charge up for electric attacks. Ruff Puffs are the followers of [[Huff N. Puff]], and so along with the giant cloud they invaded [[Flower Fields]] in the original ''Paper Mario''.  In the game's sequels, Ruff Puffs were simply generic enemies. In ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' they appear inside [[Riverside Station]]. Ruff Puffs appeared in the [[Overthere Stair]] in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. Ruff Puffs also appear in the [[Flipside Pit of 100 Trials]].
__TOC__
==History==
===''Paper Mario''===
In ''[[Paper Mario]]'', Ruff Puffs serve as the minions of [[Huff N. Puff]], who they resemble a miniature version of. They appear only in [[Flower Fields]], though a weaker variant, the [[Tuff Puff]], is fought alongside Huff N. Puff in [[Cloudy Climb]]. Their primary method of attack is to ram into Mario.


===''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''===
==Notable Ruff Puffs==
In ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' and its [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door (Nintendo Switch)|Nintendo Switch remake]], they appear inside [[Riverside Station]]. They attack by ramming into Mario or the active partner. They can also electrify themselves, at which point on the next turn they will attack both Mario and the active partner with lightning bolts. They cannot be attacked directly while they are electrified. Additionally, they are the only type of Puff to not appear in the [[Pit of 100 Trials (Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door)|Pit of 100 Trials]].
*[[Huff N. Puff]] &ndash; ''[[Paper Mario]]''


===''Super Paper Mario''===
==''Paper Mario'' Series Stats and Tattle Information==
In ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', Ruff Puffs appear in the [[Overthere Stair]] and in the [[Flipside Pit of 100 Trials]]. They attack by firing electric balls at the heroes.

|tattle=This is a Ruff Puff. Ruff Puffs are nasty little cloud henchmen of Huff N. Puff. Ruff Puffs float in the air, so a [[Jump]] attack or something similar may be best. Of course, I'd be more than happy to give 'em a Headbonk! It's your call, Mario.

|log=A relative of the Dark Puff... or perhaps just a different-colored one. It charges up and shocks you with lightning.

|tattle=This is a Ruff Puff. Don't confuse them with Dark Puffs... Although I don't think the world would end if you DID confuse them, but anyway... Max HP is 7, Attack is 4, and Defense is 0. They swoop at you or charge themselves with electricity before unleashing lightning. Oh, and if you touch them while they're charged, you'll get a shock!

==Trivia==
*The name "Ruff Puff" comes from a corruption of the word "rough," the "puff" part of their name seemingly coming from the simple fact that they are clouds.
*In ''Paper Mario'' Ruff Puffs have noses, while in its sequels they don't. Ruff Puffs also appear darker in this game and have a color scheme similar to [[Huff N. Puff]].
