The title of this article is official, but it comes from a Japanese source.
If an acceptable English name is found, then the article should be moved to the new title.

An Angel, carrying a piece of ground.
Tenshi

Tenshi are winged beings that appear in the Pyoro, Pyoro 2, Bird, and Super Pyoro minigames. The first of these games appears in WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!, Bird & Beans and WarioWare Gold, the second is only in WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$! and Bird & Beans, the third is in Game & Wario, and the fourth is in WarioWare Gold. Tenshi are allies of Pyoro.

When Pyoro eats a white bean (or destroys it by spitting seeds in Pyoro 2), and there is a gap created by a foothold being destroyed by a falling bean, a Tenshi appears from the top of the screen carrying a new foothold. It drops down and places the new foothold in the gap closest to Pyoro Since Pyoro is only allowed to move over footholds and not over gaps, this increases the width of the area restoring the platform and giving Pyoro more room to move. If the platform is already fully restored when Pyoro eats the white bean, no Tenshi will appear. Flashing beans are similar but up to 10 Tenshi appear to replace the same number of gaps with new footholds.

In Super Pyoro, the cloud bonus area has a Tenshi holding on to each of the three conveyor belts. They are each close to the start of the relevant conveyor belt, and they have no gameplay effect.
