An '''Eggo-Dil''' is an enemy resembling a daisy in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' and its sequel, ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]''. They are flowers with five bright yellow petals that rotate around the flower which [[Yoshi]] can gobble up. They rock these petals back and forth for awhile, but soon spray them in all directions. These petals can damage Yoshi, making an Eggo-Dil a formidable opponent. However, a [[Ground-Pound]] stuns it for a short time and cause all the petals to fall off. A [[Chomp Rock]] destroys it permanently. Yoshis can also eat the petals, and the number the Eggo-Dil petals decreases. The plant's face itself cannot hurt Yoshi.

Eggo-Dils[1] are enemies resembling daisies with smiley faces in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island (and its reissue), Yoshi's Island DS, and Yoshi's New Island. Their name is a portmanteau of "egg" and "daffodil." Each Eggo-Dil has five yellow petals that spawn when a Yoshi draws near and rotate around the enemy for a while, being launched in different directions afterwards. After losing its petals, the Eggo-Dil's head shrinks and regrows with another set of petals, repeating its attack pattern afterward. The petals of an Eggo-Dil can damage a Yoshi, but he can also swallow and convert them into eggs. It is possible for every petal on an Eggo-Dil's head to fall off, shrinking and stunning the enemy, if the player does a Ground Pound nearby. However, the enemy's head regrows itself as well as its petals soon after. A Chomp Rock can destroy the enemy permanently, as can a Giant Egg, which turns it into a star.

An Eggo-Dil also appears in Tetris Attack, where it is partnered with a Flutter.
