In ''Super Mario 3D World'', they appear only in two levels: [[Ty-Foo Flurries]] and [[Gigantic Seasick Wreck]]. Ty-foos function more as obstacles rather than enemies, even though players will take damage if they make contact with them. Their gusts of winds can push projectiles, such as [[Fire Flower]] fireballs, in the opposite direction, usually into another obstacle such as [[Spike (obstacle)|spikes]] or a pit. Heavy enemies such as [[Bully|Bullies]] are unaffected by the Ty-foos' gust. Most Ty-foos are stationary, but some can move left and right while blowing. They can be stunned with fireballs and boomerangs, but Ty-foos can only be defeated by [[Invincible Mario]], [[White Tanooki Mario]], [[Mega Mario]], or [[Lucky Cat Mario]], though the player may lose a life because they float over bottomless pits.

A Ty-foo's wind can affect the movement of projectiles such as [[Fireball]]s, which can also stun them, along with [[boomerang]]s, but only either [[Invincible Mario]], [[White Tanooki Mario]], [[Mega Mario]], or [[Lucky Cat Mario]] can defeat them.

Ty-foos that wear Santa hats are enemies in the [[Snow Kingdom]] of ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]''. The wind blown by Ty-foos can push various objects, even [[Mario]] and [[Cappy]] as well as enemies. Ty-foos cannot be jumped on. Ty-foos sometimes rotate while blowing wind. A Ty-foo can be [[capture]]d by [[Cappy]] to still perform the same actions, and pressing {{button|switch|Y}} or {{button|switch|B}} is for blowing wind, though shaking the [[Nintendo Switch#Joy-Con|Joy-Con]] increases the strength of the wind.
In ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'', Ty-foos appear as enemies in the [[Snow Kingdom]], where they wear Santa hats. Mario can [[capture]] them with [[Cappy]], allowing him to blow enemies and certain platforms away using {{button|ns|Y}}. Shaking the [[Nintendo Switch#Joy-Con|Joy-Con]] causes Mario to blow harder. When captured, Ty-foos can also be used to travel across [[Poison (obstacle)|poison]]. If Mario throws Cappy into their wind, Cappy will fly far away in the direction of the wind.

Ty-foos[1] are cloud enemies debuting in Super Mario 3D World. They are large Fwooshes with black and yellow eyes and large purple lips that can blow strong gusts of wind.

History[edit]

Super Mario series[edit]

Super Mario 3D World / Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury[edit]

Ty-foos are enemies found in Ty-Foo Flurries and Gigantic Seasick Wreck of Super Mario 3D World and its port. They hover above pits, blowing gusts of wind sometimes while moving left and right. A Ty-foo's wind can affect the movement of projectiles such as Fireballs, which can also stun them, along with boomerangs, but only either Invincible Mario, White Tanooki Mario, Mega Mario, or Lucky Cat Mario can defeat them.

Super Mario Odyssey[edit]

Ty-foos that wear Santa hats are enemies in the Snow Kingdom of Super Mario Odyssey. The wind blown by Ty-foos can push various objects, even Mario and Cappy as well as enemies. Ty-foos cannot be jumped on. Ty-foos sometimes rotate while blowing wind. A Ty-foo can be captured by Cappy to still perform the same actions, and pressing Y Button or B Button is for blowing wind, though shaking the Joy-Con increases the strength of the wind.

Minecraft[edit]
