| | '''Snakes''' are weird animals that float in the air and can be used like plains. When a [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] steps on one the plane will start flying in the air. There are blue and pink snakes. |

| '''Snakes''', also called '''air snakes'''<ref>{{cite|deadlink=y|archive=web.archive.org/web/19991115034511/http://www.yoshisstory.com/3-1.html|title=''Yoshi's Story'' official website|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us|accessdate=June 24, 2024}}</ref> or '''Aerosnakes''',<ref>{{cite|date=April 1998|title=''Official UK Nintendo Magazine'' Issue 67|page=28|quote='''AEROSNAKES'''}}</ref> are creatures that fly in the air and can be used as moving [[platform]]s in ''[[Yoshi's Story]]''. When a [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] steps on one, the snake starts flying in the air. Snakes are encountered only in the first area of [[Cloud Cruising]], in which they are found en masse. Snakes come in two types: '''blue snakes'''<ref name=guide>{{cite|author=Leung, Jason, Terry Munson, and Scott Pelland|title=''Yoshi's Story'' Player's Guide|page=56|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us}}</ref> and '''red snakes'''.<ref name=guide/> When stepped on, both play carnival-esque music, but the music is slightly different depending on the color of the snake. The music can also play either forward or backwards, depending on the current direction of the snake. If a Yoshi loses a snake, the Yoshi can always find it again at its original spot. Otherwise, once a snake moves, it never stops. Blue snakes are encountered first, and they move forward in a zigzagging horizontal motion, while red snakes move upward in a zigzagging vertical motion, necessitating [[jump]]ing to stay on board; both change direction when landed upon. The incline that the snakes travel in varies between each. | |
