Yggy Woods

"No—that’s not Whispy Woods! This venerable elder is Yggy Woods, ancient king of trees. Any travelers who stray into his neck of the woods will feel the full force of nature's wrath!"

- VS Yggy Woods

Yggy Woods is a boss appearing in Kirby Star Allies on the Falluna Moon, serving as a harder version of Whispy Woods.

Physical Appearance
Yggy Woods appears to be very old, as evidenced by the black splotches covering his bark and his autumn-themed design. His eyes are concealed by two leaves hanging down from his branches, and he has a thin handlebar mustache consisting of leaves that cover his mouth. Yggy Woods' leaves are a combination of orange and red, and he has five-petaled, pink flowers blooming among his leaves. On either side of his body, midway up the trunk, there is a short branch ending in a stub.

Battle
Yggy Woods fights similarly to Whispy Woods, having many of the same moves, but slightly altered. Instead of apples, he drops rotten cherries that hurt Kirby if swallowed, though the exploding apples are the same, albeit larger. In his second phase, he drops hordes of cherries, and after that he drops some Blados, which roll across the ground. He can also jump to the sides and center of the arena and squish the player. His air gun technique features bigger puffs of air as well.

Etymology
Yggy Woods' name may be a reference to Yggdrasil, the World Tree said to support the nine worlds in Norse mythology.

Trivia

 * Upon entering the second phase, Yggy Woods will drop a great deal of cherries. Among them on the right side, a single golden cherry will drop, which gives the Festival ability if inhaled.
