Their name comes from "eggplant," a type of fruit. They also share their name with a type of nightshade (hence the appearance). Egg Plants normally spit out normal [[Yoshi's Egg]]s, and they are very common and appear in almost every [[level]] in their respective games. They spit out eggs one at a time, but if a Yoshi [[Ground Pound|ground-pound]]s near one, the plant will either shoot out several at once or start shooting them out more quickly. The [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] can also lick the eggs to catch them. Since the Yoshi can carry only six eggs each, the Egg Plant does not produce any more eggs until the Yoshi uses one of them on something.

[[Sanbo Flower|Some Egg Plant]]s spit out [[Pokey (projectile)|Pokey projectile]]s, but as long as a Yoshi has six eggs, they cannot spit any out. In ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]'', there are four of these plants in the [[Island Museum]]. They can be viewed in the botanical enemy exhibit.

An unused variation that spits out Bubbles was intended to appear, but it was removed for unknown reasons.<ref>TCRF. [[tcrf:Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island#Unused Sprites|Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island § Unused Sprites]]. ''The Cutting Room Floor''. Retrieved August 26, 2018.</ref> Like the [[Bull's-Eye Bill|Missile Bill]], it is fully functional.

 

An Egg Plant appears in volume 14 of ''[[Super Mario-kun]]'', where it helps [[Mario]], [[Yoshi]], and [[Luigi]] by providing eggs in their fight against [[Burt the Bashful]].
