Sea cacti come in three sizes: big, medium, and small. Sea cacti also have 12 possible color combinations, ranging from orange to pink, making a total of 36 possible sea cactus varieties. Additionally, if a Yoshi walks far enough for a sea cactus to go offscreen, it | '''Sea cacti''',<ref>Leung, Jason, Terry Munson, and Scott Pelland. ''Yoshi's Story'' Player's Guide.

"''When you reach the raft ride, go right until you reach a platform full of spiky plants—the final heart is floating above them.''"</ref> are an aquatic species of [[Neuron]] that live in the oceans of [[Yoshi's Island (location)|Yoshi's Island]]. They appear only in ''[[Yoshi's Story]]'', where they serve as obstacles in several [[level]]s. | ||
Sea cacti wriggle their bodies back and forth, and they cannot be defeated by any means. If a [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] tries to throw an [[Yoshi's Egg|egg]] at one, it will harmlessly ricochet off the sea cactus. Sea cacti have spikes on the upper half of their bodies, meaning if a Yoshi collides with one, the Yoshi will take some damage. Sea cacti also can hang off ceilings, and if a Yoshi encounters one, it will wriggle faster and detach from the ceiling. This only happens in [[Neuron Jungle]], however, as they are out of water; in levels where an upside-down sea cactus is in water, it will simply stay put. | |||
Sea cacti come in three sizes: big, medium, and small. Sea cacti also have 12 possible color combinations, ranging from orange to pink, making a total of 36 possible sea cactus varieties, making them one of the most diverse species. Additionally, if a Yoshi walks far enough for a sea cactus to go offscreen, it will change color and size when the player returns.<ref>[https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=0DNF8UtrR98&t=9m25s Video of Neuron Jungle] Note how the periwinkle and mint Sea cacti change to blue and purple respectively.</ref> Sea cacti are often seen in large groups. Sea cacti are able to survive outside water, but the only time they are seen on dry land is near a body of water. Sea cacti appear in only three levels: [[Neuron Jungle]], [[Lots O'Jelly Fish]], and [[Lots O'Fish]]. | |||
