Spirit of Cuteness
- “I just love, love, LOVE cute little things! Yes, I'm the spirit who loves cuteness above all!”
- —Spirit of Cuteness, Yoshi's Topsy Turvy
The Spirit of Cuteness one of the Yoshi Island Spirits seen within the Forbidden Pop-Up Book in the Game Boy Advance game Yoshi Topsy-Turvy. The Spirit of Cuteness loves cuteness above everything else, and can be described as a round, flying pink creature with white wings and flower imprints all over her body. She is very friendly, and is quite keen to let Yoshi progress to the second page in the Pop-Up Book. But she tells the sad tale of how her Eggling pals were turned into Apples by the evil Koopa King Bowser. The Spirit of Cuteness pleads to Yoshi to help find the Egglings and free them from the curse. If Yoshi finds an Apple in a stage, he is able to swallow them and they will transform back into their former Eggling self. The spirit awards Yoshi with a Happiness Medal if he finds a certain amount of Eggling in each stage. A gold Happiness Medal is rewarded if all Egglings in a stage are found, and a minimum of two medals would need to be obtained if the player is to progress. The Spirit of Cuteness also appears in other pages of the Pop-Up Book, where she sets the Eggling task along with another spirit to increase the difficulty of a stage.
