If a [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] walks near a Black Shy Guy, it will release the spiked stone, which will crush whatever is beneath it. Coming into contact with a spiked stone makes the Yoshi lose some petals from his [[Health Meter#Yoshi's Story|Smile Meter]]. Spiked stones appear in the levels [[Lift Castle]], [[Ghost Castle]], and [[Mecha Castle]].
