These [[block]]s can be activated by either [[jump]]ing or striking them with an [[Yoshi's Egg|egg]], after which they cause [[rough platform]]s to flip around, alternating between safe and harmful sides. They correspond to the colors of the rough platforms; hitting a red arrow block, for example, causes red rough platforms to flip. Arrow blocks are first found in [[Salvo The Slime's Castle]] in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'', having green and red colors. In ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]'', arrow blocks are first found in [[Big Bungee Piranha's Lair]], where they cause segmented tunneled platforms of the corresponding colors to rotate; arrow blocks that flip rough platforms appear in [[Castle of Priscilla the Peckish]]. In ''[[Yoshi's New Island]]'', arrow blocks are found in [[Fort Key Calamity]], having yellow and red colors.
