'''Whispy Woods''' ({{ja|ウィスピーウッズ|Uisupī Uzzu}}, ''Whispy Woods'') is a boss from the {{uv|Kirby}} universe.
 
==Origin==
[[File:WhispyWoodsKSS.png|left|thumb|Whispy Woods as he appears in ''[[Kirby Super Star]]''.]]
Whispy Woods made its debut in the very first Kirby game, ''[[Kirby's Dream Land]]'', where it is the very first boss. It has since become a series staple, appearing as an early boss in several games. It sometimes alternates with various other forms, such as {{s|wikirby|Flowery Woods}}, {{s|wikirby|Clanky Woods}}, and {{s|wikirby|Tropic Woods}}, although their relationships with Whispy Woods itself vary. Its basic attack pattern is shooting damaging puffs of air and making [[apple]]s drop: unless he has a copy ability, to defeat it Kirby must {{b|Inhale|Kirby}} the apples and spit them back at him.

[[File:DreamLandSSB.png|left|thumb|Whispy Woods in Dream Land]]
Whispy Woods appears in the background of {{SSB|Dream Land}}, position to the left of center. He will occasionally blow a weak [[wind|stream of air]] from his mouth towards one side of the stage, pushing any [[character]]s caught in the wind away from the center of the stage. If there are characters to his right he will blow to the right, if there are characters to his left he will blow to the left, and if there are characters on either side he will pick a direction at random. The speed of the air gets weaker the further from Whispy Woods the character is.

Whispy Woods reappears in the same role as he did in ''Smash 64'' on the [[Past Stage]] Dream Land with the only difference being that the wind no longer gets weaker with distance.
 
Whispy Woods also appears in the center of the background of the stage [[Green Greens]]. Like on Dream Land he will blow air to either side of him with the same rules, however the wind is slightly stronger. He will also shake [[apple]]s from its branches&mdash;the apples have a variety of different effects: If an apple hits a character as it falls to the ground, that character will take [[damage]], and when an apple lands, it becomes either a healing item or a throwing weapon.

Whispy Woods is in the center of the backgrounds of both the [[Dream Land]] stage in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' and the [[Green Greens]] stage in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. He will sometimes blow a powerful stream of air from his mouth towards one side of the stage, pushing any [[character]]s caught in the wind away from the center of the stage. On Green Greens, Whispy will also shake [[apple]]s from its branches - the apples have a variety of different effects: If an apple hits a character as it falls to the ground, that character will take [[damage]], and when an apple lands, it becomes either a healing item or a throwing weapon.

Dream Land doesn't return in ''Brawl'' but Green Greens does, along with Whispy Woods. He behaves almost identically to how he did in ''Melee'' with one minor change: the wind now has an upward angle of 10 degrees. Due to the upward angle, characters fall slightly slower while in the wind, however the amount is almost negligible (about 0.04 [[unit]]s per frame, being overpowered by even {{SSBB|Jigglypuff}}'s [[gravity]] of 0.05056).

Origin[edit]

Whispy Woods as he appears in Kirby Super Star.

Whispy Woods made its debut in the very first Kirby game, Kirby's Dream Land, where it is the very first boss. It has since become a series staple, appearing as an early boss in several games. It sometimes alternates with various other forms, such as Flowery Woods, Clanky Woods, and Tropic Woods, although their relationships with Whispy Woods itself vary. Its basic attack pattern is shooting damaging puffs of air and making apples drop: unless he has a copy ability, to defeat it Kirby must Inhale the apples and spit them back at him.

In Super Smash Bros.[edit]

As a stage element[edit]

Whispy Woods in Dream Land

Whispy Woods appears in the background of Dream Land, position to the left of center. He will occasionally blow a weak stream of air from his mouth towards one side of the stage, pushing any characters caught in the wind away from the center of the stage. If there are characters to his right he will blow to the right, if there are characters to his left he will blow to the left, and if there are characters on either side he will pick a direction at random. The speed of the air gets weaker the further from Whispy Woods the character is.

In Super Smash Bros. Melee[edit]

Whispy Woods reappears in the same role as he did in Smash 64 on the Past Stage Dream Land with the only difference being that the wind no longer gets weaker with distance.

Whispy Woods also appears in the center of the background of the stage Green Greens. Like on Dream Land he will blow air to either side of him with the same rules, however the wind is slightly stronger. He will also shake apples from its branches—the apples have a variety of different effects: If an apple hits a character as it falls to the ground, that character will take damage, and when an apple lands, it becomes either a healing item or a throwing weapon.
