Puffbelly
Puffbelly guide for Clash Critters with role notes, upgrade priority, best modes, teammate ideas, image sources, wiki facts, and conservative build advice.
Quick Verdict
Sushi Support is the page's main hook
Use it when nearby allies can use both sustain and attack tempo. Sushi Support frames Puffbelly as more than a plain Support; it points toward healing plus buff support. Its evolution position (bridge form in the Blowfin -> Puffbelly -> Chefugu line) matters before you commit rare food. Puffbelly is the T2 form of the new Blowfin line. The community testing notes rate it in B because attack boost plus healing starts to matter at T2.
Public stat grades are not complete yet, so testing should focus on repeatable fight results. Public rarity context is limited here, so the skill text and repeated tests matter more than tier assumptions. It sits in the middle of Blowfin -> Puffbelly -> Chefugu, so the main question is whether the bridge form is useful while you work toward the endpoint.
F2P value: Good when Puffbelly improves several deployed allies at once; weaker as a lonely bench support.
Best Modes
Good places to test
- Horde Invasion and long fights where repeated healing changes the final board state
- Boss Challenge or Gold Mine Rush attempts where a buffed carry is already protected
- Fire teams that have enough bodies but need better fight quality
Be careful in
- Very short stages where support timing has no chance to matter
- Spread formations where the supported allies cannot benefit consistently
Compare results against the Gold Mine Rush guide, Boss Challenge guide, and Horde Invasion guide.
Best Teammates
Puffbelly is easiest to judge beside allies that can actually receive its support, rather than isolated lanes that hide the effect.
Use these as comparison partners, then keep the pairing that makes Puffbelly's listed skill easiest to measure.
Upgrade Priority
Priority: Puffbelly is a credible support investment when the team already has a carry worth amplifying.
Pair Puffbelly with a finished frontline and damage core first, so the test measures healing plus buff support instead of a broken formation.
Hold resources when the stage failure stays the same after adding Puffbelly; that usually means the account is missing a different job.

Strengths and Weaknesses
Strengths
- Healing text gives Puffbelly visible value in longer fights where chip damage decides the run.
- Boost text can raise the ceiling of allies that are already doing the main work.
- Its evolution position (bridge form in the Blowfin -> Puffbelly -> Chefugu line) helps decide whether the unit is a short bridge or a longer project.
Weaknesses
- short fights can end before the support effect changes the result
- Unknown rarity context makes it harder to estimate long-term cost from public data alone.
- Support value falls if placement keeps the right allies outside the useful area or timing.
Common Mistakes
- Reading healing plus buff support as a guaranteed answer before checking the same stage with a comparable Support.
- Ignoring the evolution line and treating a bridge form like a permanent endpoint.
- Expecting control value in stages where enemy movement or timing is not the actual problem.

What team should I use with Puffbelly?
Puffbelly is easiest to judge beside allies that can actually receive its support, rather than isolated lanes that hide the effect.
