Heat Phanphan

Heat Phanphan is an elephant-like enemy that has only appeared in Kirby Air Ride. They might be related to Phan Phan, because of its name and elephant-like body. They appear much like regular Phan Phan, but their ears are straight instead of droopy, and they have feet more similar to Kirby than to an elephant like Phan Phan's. There is a flame pattern on their ears and unlike Phan Phan, they have tusks surrounding their straight trunk. Their trunk also has a flame pattern. They have a small bit of rosy cheeks, much like Kirby. They have bright green eyes and a marshmallow-shaped body. Their ears give them the ability to fly, and their only means of attack is shooting fireballs.

Heat Phanphan has also been shown as a Helper in the trailer of the unreleased Kirby Wii. This version was green.
