Fawful used his headgear to suck up Princess Peach's voice when he and Cackletta pay a visit. (The latter impersonated the Goodwill Ambassador, who resembles and may have been Lady Lima.) When Mario, Luigi and Bowser encountered Fawful, he used his headgear to injure Bowser, forcing the brothers to battle him. Fawful used his headgear to attack the brothers, which can be jumped over (landing on the laser counts as not jumping at all). After he loses his headgear, Fawful attempts ramming into the brothers. After battle, Fawful used the headgear to destroy the Koopa Cruiser.
In Woohoo Hooniversity, Fawful used the helmet to suck Cackletta's soul to recover her and meanwhile he let Cackletta enter Bowser's body to become Bowletta.
=== Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story/Bowser Jr.'s Journey ===
Fawful used the headgear to sunction the Dark Star's power, transforming himself into Dark Fawful, which allowed him to fawfulize Princess Peach's castle. Fawful used his headgear during battle and the Vacuum Helmet is absent in the rest of the game.

It has 18 hit points, an attack power of 13, and a defense of 13, and its defeat nets 2 coins and no additional loot, but no Experience is gained. Nothing special happens from striking the Vacuum Helmet with a fire-based or electrical attack, but the basic Hammer and Luigi's standard Thunder Bros. (Advancing the latter allows a hit.) do not work.
Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story portrays the Vacuum Helmet with 1,200 hit points, an attack power of 180, a defense of 123, and a speed of 130 (1,800, 450, 185, and 195 respectively if either Bro. has the Challenge Medal equipped). STAT-Downs have their likelihood halved, but stunning and burning the Vacuum Helmet cannot be done. Defeating it nets 220 experience, but no loot is gained.
