Sniffing, or the Sniff-Sniff,[1] is a basic special move used by all Yoshis in Yoshi's Story. The intention of the move is to search for valuable items. The player can have a Yoshi sniff by pressing R Button. Yoshis move slower while sniffing. When the Yoshi gets closer to a secret, he starts to sniff faster until a "!" pops above the Yoshi's head eventually. Poochy can also sniff out secret items in certain levels but barks to indicate being at a secret. Either way, a Yoshi can ground-pound the spot where the secret is to retrieve it.
