Yo'ster Isle is a tropical island populated by Yoshis. In Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars, it is an optional area and can be easily bypassed by ignoring the Pipe Vault and moving on to Moleville. The island is the home to many Yoshis of various colors. Yoshis find entertainment in the Mushroom Derby, a short race on the island's track. The Yo'ster Isle Yoshis enjoy racing and hold the Derby often. The island is also a famous tourist destination; for many years, people from around the world have traveled to Yo'ster Isle to experience its many features.[1]
Yo'ster Isle is connected to the mainland by a Warp Pipe to Pipe Vault. The island is rich with vegetation, and many trees are scattered on it. No true buildings exist, but small, open shelters made of wooden poles covered with leaf roofs give the Yoshis protection from weather. Most of the Yoshis can't actually speak directly to humans; only Yoshi can communicate with Mario, and he translates what the others say. Besides Yoshi himself, there are a few important Yoshis: Boshi, a blue Yoshi known for his rudeness, and a small, green, cookie-loving Baby Yoshi that hatches and grows during the course of the game, though he never leaves his small nest. If Mario feeds him enough, he will eventually be rewarded with a few rare items, such as Red Essence.
Boshi was once considered the leader of the island after he won the Mushroom Derby and declared himself boss of the Yoshis. However, with the help of Mario and Yoshi, Boshi was defeated in another Mushroom Derby race and the Yoshis began to live freely again. Along with the Yoshis, Raz and Raini, two Toads from the Mushroom Kingdom, spent their honeymoon on the island.
In Mario and the Incredible Rescue, Yo'ster Isle once again appears. During the adventure, Mario, Luigi and Toad traveled to Yo'ster Isle looking for the next Mushroom. They end up getting attacked by Lakitu and Spinies, but Yoshi arrives and eats Lakitu's Cloud. As such, Mario can get the Mushroom and escape, allowing his party to advance to Moleville.
