Punches are one of the most common enemies in the game, along with Pirate Gooms. Their attack pattern consists of walking from side to side and trying to hit Wario with their fists. Like Pirate Gooms, Wario cannot Dash into them head-on while they are moving, but they are safe to touch from any other side.
