Biology[]
Eyephoon is similar in appearance to Eyeclone, the major difference being his color scheme. Eyephoon sports a white and red color scheme, unlike Eyeclone's yellow and blue color scheme. The cloud he originates from also looks different; it has a rainbow hue to it, as opposed to Eyeclone's simple grey cloud.
Eyephoon is able to create rooms and doors with his illusion-creating powers. He is also able to emulate weather, which is similar to Eyeclone's weather manipulation.
History[]
In Yo-kai Watch 2, he appears as a boss in the Gates of Whimsy after collecting enough gate globes. When he is defeated the quest will be completed. Afterwards he can be talked to at the player's free will.
In Yo-kai Watch 3, after solving all the challenges in the Pearly Chamber of Whimsy, Eyephoon will be confronted by Nate, Whisper, Jibanyan and Diana Gately, with the latter recognising him. He speaks using BBQ slang, claiming it as a rebirth. He challenges them to a battle, but is interrupted by Torneyedo, Eyephoon's father, punching him in the face. Torneyedo scolds Eyephoon for leaving to BBQ without warning, and Eyephoon then flees, leaving the others to deal with Torneyedo.
Etymology[]
- Eyephoon is portmanteau of Eye and Typhoon (a tropical cyclone or Hurricane).
- Torbellóptico is a portmanteau of Torbellino (whirlwind, a vertically oriented rotating column of air) and Óptico (Optical, related to eyes).
