Bosses
Bigger Boo
This battle subverts the classic Boo encounters. Normally, looking at a Boo is a good thing, as it turns them intangible and allows the player to pass by safely. However, Yoshi can’t hit Bigger Boo when the ghost is in this state, so Eggs need to be ricocheted off the walls while Yoshi is facing away from this boss in order to cause damage. Pretty cool!
Roger the Potted Ghost
Roger’s pot must be pushed off a platform while two Shy Guys push from the other side, slowing Yoshi’s efforts. Just try not to think too much about a world where giant ghosts could grow out of decorative flower pots.

Bosses
Prince Froggy
Normally Kamek enlarges the boss, but this time he shrinks Yoshi, who is subsequently swallowed by Prince Froggy. Yoshi must then attack the frog’s uvula while avoiding stomach acid and now-giant Shy Guys swallowed by the Prince. This reversal of fortune also provides a terrifying look at the fate millions of Yoshi’s enemies have suffered!
Naval Piranha
Yoshi could fight this battle as it was intended, or, if quick enough, can end the confrontation with a single Egg before it even starts! If the Piranha Plant takes damage from off-screen before Kamek arrives, he never has the chance to use his magic on her!
