They appear in packs and in areas where a [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] can turn into a [[Helicopter Yoshi|helicopter]]. They move quickly, but they can be defeated with a hit on the head. While their ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' artwork depicts them as a recolor of the [[Lava Drop]], their sprites are distinct.

In ''[[Yoshi's Woolly World]]'', enemies resembling Cloud Drops, known as [[Wik]]s, appear.
