Game appearances[edit]

Kirby's Dream Land[edit]

Kirby encountering a Cawcun in Bubbly Clouds, inKirby's Dream Land

Cawcun appears exclusively in theExtra Game, where it acts as the replacement forPuffy in locations likeBubbly Clouds. Like its standard-game counterpart, it flies in swooping motions in the air, harming Kirby if he makes contact, and occasionally fires bullets from its mouth, though Cawcun is able to move more quickly. Cawcun is worth 600 points when defeated.

Kirby Super Star Ultra[edit]

Cawcun appears inRevenge of the King in theIllusion Islands andCrash Clouds stages, where it replacesTookey. It no longer fires bullets from its mouth, but in addition to retaining its swooping flight pattern, like its standard game counterpart, it will occasionally remain idle on the ground before quickly charging at Kirby when he approaches.
