Caged Ghosts first appear in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' and [[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3|its Game Boy Advance version]] and return in ''[[Yoshi's New Island]]''. There are two different kinds of Caged Ghosts: the ones that are squeezed into sewer tunnels, and the large round mounds. They completely block a [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]]'s path to the goal or other bonuses, and simply touching one causes the Yoshi to drop [[Baby Mario]] off his back. As their primary attack, Caged Ghosts spit an infinite number of green [[Shy Guy|Shy-Guy]]s or [[Woozy Guy]]s at the Yoshi, and they can be used to attack the Caged Ghost. Doing so causes it to shrink/recede, until it is at its farthest point, when it produces no more enemies and the Yoshi is able to pass it. However, Caged Ghosts are invincible and slowly grow out again a while after being hit with an [[Yoshi's Egg|egg]], regaining their ability to produce enemies.


In their debut, Caged Ghosts appear mainly in [[Naval Piranha's Castle]] and [[Ultimate Castle Challenge]], while in ''Yoshi's New Island'', Caged Ghosts are encountered in the level [[King Clawdaddy's Sewer Castle]].
'''Caged Ghosts''' are close relatives to [[Dangling Ghost|Dangling Ghosts]] that grow from drainage grates in the floor. They are gelatinous ghosts found mainly in World 3 in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]''. They are not very bright, as they spit green [[Shy Guy]]s at Yoshi, who may turn them into the ghost's only weakness: [[Egg]]s.  


==Profiles==
There's two different kinds, the ones that are squeezed into sewer tunnels, and the large round mounds. By being hit with eggs, the ghost will shrink, until it's at it's farthest point, then after a few seconds it will grow out again.
