'''Saddle Up with Yoshi''' is the first mission of the [[Yoshi Star Galaxy]] in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. The objective is to utilize [[Yoshi]] to get around the galaxy.
==Layout==
The player starts on the [[Yoshi Star Galaxy#Starting Planet|Starting Planet]] at the bottom of a hill that contains ledges, [[thorny flower|prickly plant]]s, [[Piranha Plant]]s, and an [[Octoomba]]. At the end of the hill is a [[springboard]] that can help the player get up a tall ledge. When the player gets close enough to the [[Yoshi's Egg|Yoshi egg]] in the center of the field, a [[Magikoopa]] will appear, and defeating it will remove the barrier around the Yoshi egg, allowing the player to rescue Yoshi. While riding Yoshi, the player needs to make their way across a mud path to reach a large [[fruit (Yoshi food)|fruit]]. Grabbing the fruit with Yoshi's tongue and pulling back will uproot the fruit, revealing a [[Launch Star]]. Using the Launch Star will send the player to the next planet, along with causing the volcano to explode, releasing [[Star Bit]]s.

On the small [[Yoshi Star Galaxy#Earth Planet|Earth Planet]], the player has to find and break a [[Crystal (Super Mario Galaxy)|crystal]] that contains a Launch Star that will send the player to the [[Yoshi Star Galaxy#Tower Planet|Tower Planet]]. The Tower Planet has many vertical ledges the player needs to jump up and cross, while using Yoshi to [[Flutter Jump]] over ledges and other obstacles like prickly plants. At the top is a [[Flower (grapple)|flower]] Yoshi can swing to the next planetoid to use a Launch Star to reach the final planet.

The [[Yoshi Star Galaxy#Fossil Planet|Fossil Planet]] is a series of upward-scaling platforms with [[Paragoomba]]s and [[Spangler]]s in the gaps. At a few points, the player has to pull out platforms using Yoshi's tongue, much in the same fashion as with the large fruit earlier in the mission, or use flowers to reach higher ledges. At the top of the planet are several flowers the player has to swing between to reach the [[Power Star]] trapped in a large crystal.
