According to the trophy, there is only one; also according to the trophy, he's been practicing the skill of holding the sign for years. It is unknown why he would take so long, but it could refer to him having no arms and being able to hold the sign anyways, or a joke to give him a more in-depth explanation for his trophy other than something simpler.

This pesky pachyderm bars Yoshi's path by sticking poles high into the air. Pak E. Derm has been practicing this skill for years, and he's so masterful that he can even block Yoshi's high-flying Flutter Jump. Pak E. Derm is a little unstable, however, and he tends to topple over if Yoshi pounds the ground anywhere nearby.

Trivia

  • Pak E. Derm's name is a play on "pachyderm", another name for an elephant.
