'''World 2-5''' is the fifth level of [[World 2 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 2]] in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''. This level has many [[Pokey]]s, and there is also a [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] in this level. The Pokeys turn into a fruit-like variant with the beat of the music, allowing the Yoshi to eat them completely. Completing this level or [[World 2-6 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 2-6]] through the normal goal unlocks the world's [[Enemy Course]] and {{world-link|2|castle|World 2-Castle (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)}}.
==Layout==
At the beginning of the stage there are various Pokeys and [[Sand Geyser]]s. There is one particular ? Block with a [[Yoshi's Egg|Yoshi egg]] in it. [[Lakitu]] also makes an appearance here and throws [[Spiny|Spinies]], which can easily make the player's Yoshi fall in the quicksand. Later on, a Lakitu appears which makes getting the first Star Coin much easier. There are two yellow bricks towards the middle just left of the [[Checkpoint Flag|midway point]]. Falling between them leads the player to a secret cave containing the second Star Coin. Towards the end, five Pokeys are on the yellow bricks above quicksand, followed by two more Pokeys and the [[Goal Pole|pole]].

|The first Star Coin is floating high-up in the area where the first [[Lakitu]] appears, and is concealed by [[cloud]]s. Mario and co. can obtain it either by dismounting [[Yoshi]] while in midair, or by commandeering [[Lakitu's Cloud]].

|Shortly before the [[Checkpoint Flag|midway point]], there is a [[Piranha Plant]] resting between two yellow platforms. Mario and co. should kill the Piranha Plant, go to where it was positioned, then fall under the yellow platform on the right. This leads to a [[dark]] area with another Piranha Plant, a [[Fire Piranha Plant|Venus Fire Trap]], a [[Glow Block]], and several more yellow platforms. Mario and co. should climb all the way up the platforms to get the second Star Coin high-up in the middle while being cautious for the Piranha Plants.

|Shortly before the [[Goal Pole|pole]], the third Star Coin is floating high-up in the air, out of sight. Mario and co. should steal a Lakitu's Cloud and use it to fly up to the Star Coin.

==Trivia==
*About a third of the way through the level, just after the 1-Up, it is possible to earn unlimited 1-Ups by using a constantly rebounding Koopa Troopa's shell on the Lakitu's Spinies.<ref>{{cite|language=en|author=LevLiveDotCom|date=December 15, 2009|url=youtu.be/my9_HTxi8oc|title=Infinite lives on New Super Mario Bros.
