In ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' and [[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3|its enhanced port]], Nipper Spores are first encountered in [[The Cave Of Chomp Rock]]. They descend slowly from a certain height to the ground. Simply touching one will cause [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] to drop [[Baby Mario]] off his back. Upon coming into contact with the ground, they transform into a Nipper Plant, which starts walking right away. Yoshi will swallow a Nipper Spore directly upon eating it, without producing an [[Yoshi Egg|egg]]. He will lick his lips directly after doing so. | In ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' and [[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3|its enhanced port]], Nipper Spores are first encountered in [[The Cave Of Chomp Rock]].
