Golden Flutter Wings
- Not to be confused with Gold Flappy Wings.
Golden Flutter Wings are a power-up in Yoshi's New Island. The power-up's availability is like that of the Invincibility Leaf from Super Mario 3D Land, meaning that it appears only after a Yoshi loses three lives in a level to be offered Flutter Wings and then loses another life with the wings. Mr. Pipe gives a Yoshi this power-up, and it turns the latter character into Winged Yoshi but with infinite hovering (rather than flight) and invincibility.
If all the levels are completed without the Flutter Wings or Golden Flutter Wings, there will be a battle with Bowser before Baby Luigi and the stork are saved. An additional post-credits scene reveals Mr. Pipe's true identity as adult Mario.
Like with the Invincibility Egg from Yoshi's Woolly World, a Yoshi is made immune to damage by making contact on enemies, but unlike most cases of invincibility, this version of the Yoshi does not defeat enemies in one touch, and the Yoshi is still knocked back.
