The '''Puff-Puff''' is a sacred technique bestowed upon mortal-kind by the [[Rubiss|Goddess on High]]. Originating in [[Akira Toriyama]]'s ''Dragon Ball'' manga, the act refers to...well, you're bright enough to figure it out.

Outside of humorous scenes, the term also refers to a reoccurring skill used by the silly and the sexy.

A woman will offer the lone {{Hero 1}} a Puff-Puff for 50 [[gold]] coins in [[Rimuldar]] in the original version of the first game, with the event taking place in the [[Kol]] bathhouse in the remakes and the woman charging only 20 gold coins. The original version is less sophisticated than subsequent encounters, with the screen merely fading to black briefly.

The {{NES}} localization censored the dialogue so that the woman is selling tomatoes.

A bunny girl in [[Rippleport]] will offer her services for 100 gold coins. ~~This rabbit is feistier~~ than ~~most~~, ~~accusing the princes of being homosexuals~~ if ~~they turn~~ down ~~her services in the original Japanese script~~.

A bunny girl in [[Rippleport]] will offer her services for 100 [[gold]] coins. In the Japanese release there's more to her than meets the eye, if turned down she'll ask if it's because she's actually a man.

A dancing girl in the bar of [[Laissez Fayre]] will perform a Puff-Puff for free, but only upon male characters. In {{DQ4 Chapter 1}}, [[Angus and Aigneas|Angus' wife Aigneas]] gives her befuddled husband a Puff-Puff to restore his lost memory in the original Japanese script.

The western releases of ''IV'' on the [[Nintendo DS]] do not include the puff-puff in the Laissez Fayre bar, nor the one Aigneas gives to Angus. This was most likely to maintain a lower content rating at Nintendo's behest.

The Puff-Puff is more difficult to find than usual in ''V'', and it can only be experienced in the second generation of the game. The player can find the bunny girl in the [[Coburg]] item shop at night after defeating the [[Faux Dowager]]. At first she will offer her services after saying the {{Hero 5}} is cute, but then retract it on the grounds that he isn't mature enough yet: the player needs to reach [[Mostroferrato]] and view the cutscene with [[Nera Briscoletti]] before the full Puff-Puff scene will take place. Once that requirement has been met, the bunny girl will tell the Hero to meet her behind Coburg castle the next morning. Humorously, this can be done when the Hero is married and each bride will have very different reactions.

In the western release this scene has been censored, with the bunny girl instead offering to tell the Hero's fortune. All three brides still have distinct reactions.

[[Buddy]]'s older sister will offer the {{Hero 6}} a Puff-Puff on the night of the mountain spirit festival, but will tease him if he agrees. In [[Turnscote]], there is a bunny girl in one of the two-story buildings on the right side of town who will give a puff-puff so wonderful it actually increases the puffee's {{Style}} by 5.

In the localization done by 8-4, all instances of Puff-Puffs have been censored and replaced with ''Pattycake Princess''. This was likely done at Nintendo's behest, who published the game in North America and Europe.

In all versions of the game, the puff-puff in Turnscote is revealed to be a ruse, with the bunny girl being revealed to have put make-up on the puffee's face and did no actual puff-puffing.

The most ~~infamous~~ Puff-Puff of the series, players will have to explore the [[Arcadia]] region to find the hidden club and have the [[Ultimate Key]] in possession. All characters can be puffees, though [[Jessica Albert]] and [[Red]] will have the most distinct reactions in the cutscene.

The most famous Puff-Puff of the series, players will have to explore the [[Arcadia]] region to find the hidden club [[Le Club Puff-Puff]] and have the [[Ultimate Key]] in possession. All characters can be puffees, though [[Jessica Albert]] and [[Red]] will have the most distinct reactions in the cutscene.

Jessica learns the Puff-Puff skill by putting 38 points into her Sex Appeal. It can be used by the enemies [[Witch]] and [[Siren]], and by the recruitable Infamous Mosnter [[Hazel (Recruit)]].

==={{DQ9}}===

In the original Japanese script, a married woman in the inn of [[Coffinwell]] offers to give [[List of minor characters in Dragon Quest IX#Dr. Phlegming|Dr. Phlegming]] Puff-Puff as thanks for saving her. The English translation renders this offer as "a smooch".

Tuya, a little girl living in the [[Hunters' Yurts]] of the [[Iluugazar Plains]] will reward players with a Puff-Puff if they assist her by completing [[~~List of quests in Dragon Quest IX~~: ~~101-150~~|Quest 126]] for her.

Tuya, a little girl living in the [[Hunters' Yurts]] of the [[Iluugazar Plains]] will reward players with a Puff-Puff if they assist her by completing [[Template:DQIXQuest/126|Quest #126]] for her.

The puffing is a ruse, however; players will hear the baas of sheep as the screen goes dark, and when light returns their heads will be between two smelly sheep rears. A fitting fate for any sickos expecting a real Puff-Puff from a little girl.

Various female {{NPC}}s offer the Luminary Puff Puff, either for a price, for free or as a reward. The {{Hero 11}} character will get a +5 boost to charm once from the bunny girl in [[Phnom Nonh]]. Several of the Puff-Puff scenes in this game allude to previous games (like the father who gives the Puff-Puff in [[Gallopolis]]).

Additionally, a bunny girl in [[The Battleground]] will offer a free Puff-Puff, lead the Hero to a cliff, ask him to close his eyes and tie his ankles, before pushing him off the cliff only to bungee jump right above the clouds, causing Puff-Puffs of clouds.
