The '''stork''' is a supporting character in the [[Yoshi's Island (series)|''Yoshi's Island'' series]]. He is responsible for delivering [[Baby Mario]] and [[Baby Luigi]] to the home of their mother and father. This is a reference to the myth of real-life storks delivering babies to young couples. His design is also based on the {{wp|white stork}}, the same stork told in folklore.
The '''stork''' is a supporting character in the [[Yoshi's Island (series)|''Yoshi's Island'' series]]. In ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' and ''[[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3]]'', it is responsible for delivering [[Baby Mario]] and [[Baby Luigi]] to the home of their mother and father. On the way there, however, it is attacked by [[Kamek]], who wants to kidnap the young brothers before they mature and cause trouble to the [[Koopa (species)|Koopas]]. Kamek succeeds in kidnapping only Baby Luigi and the stork.
==History==
===''Yoshi's Island'' series===
====''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' / ''Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3''====
[[File:BluigiSMW2.png|thumb|left|Yoshi rescuing the stork and Baby Luigi.]]
In the prologue ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' and ''[[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3]]'', on his way to deliver [[Baby Mario|the]] [[Baby Luigi|babies]], the stork is attacked by [[Kamek]], who wants to kidnap the young brothers before they mature and cause trouble to the [[Koopa (species)|Koopas]]. Kamek succeeds in kidnapping only Baby Luigi and the stork.


After [[Yoshi]] defeats [[Baby Bowser]], Baby Luigi and the stork are rescued. The stork then carries the babies to their parents.

====''Yoshi's Island DS''====
In ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]'', the stork is not only helping the Baby Mario Brothers, but also [[Baby Donkey Kong]], [[Baby Peach]], [[Baby Wario]], and [[Baby Bowser]]. The stork is more of a major character in this game as it is shown traveling with the babies in cut-scenes, and it helps even more by bringing babies to [[Stork Stop]]s. In the end, more than one stork are seen; several storks carry the babies back to their homes.

In the end, several storks carry the babies back to their homes.


====''Yoshi's New Island''====
The first actual mention of the stork is in ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'' episode "[[Mario of the Apes]]". When the gorilla couple [[June and Ward]] are waiting for a child of their own, they mistake an [[Albatoss]] that drops Mario on their porch for the actual stork.

In ''[[Yoshi's New Island]]'', the stork discovers that the parents he delivered the babies to in the original game are not Mario's and Luigi's. While he tries to find their real parents, he is attacked by [[Kamek]] and drops them again. Baby Mario is saved by Yoshi while Baby Luigi is captured by Kamek again. It is also revealed that the stork and other storks deliver infants from a magic land in the sky.


===''Yoshi Touch & Go''===
The stork is mentioned in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'' about bringing [[Captain Gills]] his own children. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', the stork makes an appearance as a large [[Sticker (Super Smash Bros. Brawl)|sticker]] that can be obtained. The sticker shows the stork carrying Baby Peach. It raises attack power by +21. The stork also appears as a support [[Spirit (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)|spirit]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', providing strong wind immunity.  
The stork plays a similar role in ''[[Yoshi Touch & Go]]'' in that he is a goal of Score Attack that Yoshi needs to reach. Every time a mode is selected in the main menu of the game, Kamek swoops in and hits the stork, causing him to drop the babies. In Score Attack, if the player achieves a high score and reaches the goal, Baby Luigi can be seen riding the stork.


===''Super Smash Bros.'' series===
The stork serves a similar purpose as his appearance in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' in ''[[Yoshi's New Island]]'', as he found out that the parents are not Mario's and Luigi's. While he tries to find their real parents, he is attacked by [[Kamek]], and he drops [[Baby Mario]] and [[Baby Luigi]]. Baby Mario is saved by Yoshi while Baby Luigi is captured by Kamek again. It is also revealed that the stork and other storks deliver infants from a magic land in the sky.
A few items of the Stork appear in the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]]. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', there is a [[Sticker (Super Smash Bros. Brawl)|sticker]] of the Stork that shows it carrying [[Baby Peach]], and in [[Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary|The Subspace Emissary]], it can be applied to any character to raise their body- and spin-based attack power by 21 points. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', there is an Ace-class support [[Spirit (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)|spirit]] of a Stork that, when used, grants immunity against strong winds to players.


===''Mario Kart Tour''===
The stork appears as an Advanced class support spirit in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. When used, it gives air resistance to characters, making it harder for strong winds to blow them around.
In ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', the stork makes a cameo appearance on the [[Baby Mario Hanafuda]] [[glider]], which uses the same artwork from [[Mario Hanafuda]].


===Other appearances===
==Sticker==
The first actual mention of a baby-carrying stork in the ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' franchise is in ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'' episode "[[Mario of the Apes]]". When the gorilla couple [[June and Ward]] are waiting for a child of their own, they mistake an [[Albatoss]] that drops Mario on their porch for the actual stork.
