Dr. Freezegoods[1] are snowmen wearing buckets appearing in the Yoshi's Island series, including Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3 and Yoshi's New Island. They ride ski lifts and stand completely still unless they drop off on a slope. Yoshi cannot eat them, but he can step on their heads to rack up a few coins and defeat them. They are harmless to touch, though they push a Yoshi around when touched.
Being snowmen, Dr. Freezegoods appear in snowy climates. In Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, Dr. Freezegoods appear in World 5. In Yoshi's New Island, they are found in Ski Lift Leap, where, in the first area, they are skiing down slopes while in the second area, one is seen riding a ski lift. They crumble when they are touched, and they do not spawn coins.
Freezegood made a background appearance in Tetris Attack, where it is shown to be allied with Bumpty.
