'''Bessie Bass''' appears to be a giant [[Boss Bass]] (or actually a [[Big Bertha]]; see [[Bessie Bass#Trivia|below]]), and is the middle boss in the third world of ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]''.
 
==History==
===''[[Yoshi (series)|Yoshi'' series]]===
====''Yoshi's Island DS====
When first encountered, Bessie Bass is only slightly larger than a [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]]; through the use of his magic, [[Kamek]] was able to grow Bessie to monstrous proportions.


In battle, the water rises, and Bessie Bass attempts to attack [[Yoshi (species)|Yellow Yoshi]] by swimming through platforms, making small leaps through the water, or by a high leap out of the water, attempting to eat Yellow Yoshi. If Yellow Yoshi is eaten, Bessie Bass chews and spits Yellow Yoshi out. While she is leaping out of the water and falling straight down, Yellow Yoshi needs to aim at her mouth to hit her; three hits defeat her. After the first hit, she leaps twice before performing a big leap.
In battle, Bessie attempts to attack [[Yellow Yoshi|Yoshi]] by crushing him with several small leaps out of the water or by making a giant jump out of the water. Then she falls downward towards Yoshi with her jaws wide-open, trying to engulf him and leave Yoshi with his baby floating away. It is only when Bessie makes one of these large leaps that she is vulnerable to an attack. While Bessie is in the air, Yoshi must hit her on the lips to injure her; hitting Bessie three times on the lips will be enough to defeat Bessie Bass.


In her battle against Yoshi, Bessie Bass is assisted by several falling [[Toober Guy]]s, who Yoshi can swallow for [[Yoshi Egg|egg]]s to fight her, though additional Yoshi Eggs fall as well.
In her battle against Yoshi, Bessie is assisted by several [[Tube Guy]]s, whom Yoshi can swallow for [[egg]]s to fight her.

==Trivia==
<gallery>
*It is unknown if Bessie is male or female - though the English name sounds feminine, and if female, Bessie would technically be a [[Big Bertha]], the female counterpart of Boss Bass from ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', which is of the same species and looks identical to Boss Bass (making her probably the only fish of the species in this game that is female, as the rest all seem to be Boss Basses).

*Unlike the Big Berthas of ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', though, Bessie cannot shoot young fish out of her mouth, and with her jumping abilities, behaves much more like the males of her species.
