Yoshi's Island: Super Mario World 2/Items

Special Items
These are items that can be earned for bonus and mini battles.

Watermelons

 * Super Green Watermelon: Allows Yoshi to spit out 90 seeds at his enemies. For half eaten Super Green Watermelons, Yoshi only can spit out half the number of seeds (45).
 * Super Red Watermelon: Allows Yoshi to spit 9 blasts of fire at his enemies.
 * Super Blue Watermelon: Allows Yoshi to spit 9 blasts of ice at his enemies.

Stars
The Countdown Timer starts with 10 seconds. But Yoshi, he can raise the timer with stars, Middle Rings, and items that can add seconds to the timer. Stars (from Winged Clouds) and Middle Rings add one and ten more seconds to the timer. However, two of these items also can add seconds to the timer. (The timer can only max out at thirty seconds.)


 * 10-point star: Adds 10 more seconds to the timer.
 * 20-point star: Adds 20 more seconds to the timer.
 * Anywhere POW: Turns all enemies into stars.

Others

 * Winged Cloud Maker: Turns all enemies into winged clouds.
 * Magnifying Glass: Reveals the red coins.
 * Anytime Egg: Refills Yoshi's egg maximum of six.

Eggs
Yoshi can collect eggs during the adventure, up to six at one time. There are five types of eggs:
 * Green Egg: a normal egg.
 * Yellow Egg: gives a coin if you hit an enemy.
 * Red Egg: gives two stars if you hit an enemy.
 * Flashing Egg: gives a red coin if you hit an enemy.
 * Giant Egg: turns all enemies into stars.

It is possible with clever aiming to improve Green and Yellow Eggs. A Green Egg that bounces once before impact becomes a Yellow Egg, and a Yellow Egg that bounces once before impact becomes a Red Egg (so a Green Egg can bounce twice to become a Red Egg). Also remember, if Yoshi gets his tongue on an egg in flight, he can reclaim it, meaning if there is a ceiling above Yoshi, he can shoot an egg upward and tongue it as it comes back down to make improved eggs that return to his stash.

Flower
There are 5 flowers in each stage. Getting all of them earns a life, and each flower is worth 10 points towards the total score on the stage.

Red Coin
There are 20 Red Coins in each stage. Each is worth 1 point towards the total points for the stage.

Star
You can have up to 30 stars. They increase the time that the player can leave Mario floating in a bubble if Yoshi is hit by an enemy. Each star is worth 1 of the 100 total points of the stage. Thirty stars is worth 30 points (1 for each star). Stars (from Winged Clouds) and Checkpoint Rings add 1 and 10 more seconds to the timer. Tulips (when a spit-up enemy enters it), they throw out 10 stars. And they add 10 more seconds to the timer and the Tulip then disappears.
