'''Soft rocks'''<ref>{{cite|language=en-us|date=1995|author=Miller, Kent, and Terry Munson|publisher=Nintendo of America|title=''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' Player's Guide|page=10}}</ref> are [[block]]s that appear in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' (and [[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3|its reissue]]) and ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]''. They are composed of thinly packed rocks that can appear in various different color schemes depending on where they are found, most typically either yellow or light gray. Soft rocks automatically merge with other soft rocks adjacent to them, visually appearing as a single mass that reshapes itself as individual blocks are broken. Soft rocks can be broken using almost any attack, including [[jump]]ing into them from below | '''Soft rocks'''<ref>{{cite|language=en-us|date=1995|author=Miller, Kent, and Terry Munson|publisher=Nintendo of America|title=''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' Player's Guide|page=10}}</ref> are [[block]]s that appear in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' (and [[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3|its reissue]]) and ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]''. They are composed of thinly packed rocks that can appear in various different color schemes depending on where they are found, most typically either yellow or light gray. Soft rocks automatically merge with other soft rocks adjacent to them, visually appearing as a single mass that reshapes itself as individual blocks are broken. Soft rocks can be broken using almost any attack, including [[jump]]ing into them from below, spitting seeds by using a [[Watermelon#Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island|green watermelon]], which breaks them one at a time, or by [[Ground Pound|ground-pound]]ing them from above or throwing [[Yoshi's Egg|egg]]s at them, which can destroy large amounts of soft rock at once as the ground-pounding [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] or egg pierces through the soft rocks as it travels. [[Chomp Rock]]s also break soft rocks in front of and underneath them as they roll, and a Yoshi can easily dig through them in his [[Mole Tank]] form. Some enemies are capable of destroying soft rocks as well, most notably [[Big Chain Chomp|Chomp Shark]]s, which tear through large amounts of soft rock as they chase a Yoshi, but also [[Lakitu]]s' [[Spiny Egg]]s and [[bomb]]s dropped by [[Item Balloon]]s and similar sources. These enemies are typically encountered in areas where the ground is mostly made up of soft rocks, making traversal dangerous for a Yoshi. Soft rocks typically contain nothing when broken, but they can occasionally hide [[Winged Cloud]]s and [[Smiley Flower]]s. | ||
