In ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' and ''[[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3]]'', Bubbles have a number of roles. They sometimes house [[Extra life|1UPs]], but usually appear in the form of [[morph bubble]]s. If the player is hit by an enemy, [[Baby Mario]] floats away in a Bubble. [[Bubble Dayzee]]s and [[Barney Bubble]]s also spit out Bubbles as their attack method. These Bubbles cannot hurt a [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] directly, but are capable of knocking him back. Yoshis can also bounce up high after jumping onto these Bubbles. The Yoshis can also spit these Bubbles themselves upon licking them up, though theirs' defeat enemies instead, and must be restocked by licking up another bubble. | In ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' and ''[[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3]]'', Bubbles have a number of roles.

In ''[[Yoshi's Story]]'', bubbles appear in every level in the game. They commonly contain fruits such as [[apple]]s, [[banana]]s, [[grape]]s, [[watermelon]]s, and [[melon]]s. A Yoshi can pop a bubble by simply throwing an [[Yoshi's Egg|egg]] at it or by touching it about 15 to 30 times. When the Yoshi bumps into it once, it simply gets knocked around, without popping. Bubbles occasionally just float or move around the area of the level above the ground. In some levels in the game, a bubble contains a [[Heart Fruit]] that can actually help the Yoshi. Occasionally, bubbles marked with question marks, known as [[? Bubble]]s, contain surprises. | |||

In the [[Wario Land (series)|''Wario Land'' series]], Bubbles first appear in ''[[Wario Land II]]'', then reappear in ''[[Wario Land 3]]'' and ''[[Wario Land 4]]''. In each game, bubbles are found in the underwater segments of various levels. If [[Wario]] makes contact with one, he becomes [[Bubble Wario]], being trapped inside and forced to float to the water's surface or until he hits a ceiling. In some areas, they are a helpful tool, allowing Wario to bypass water currents, but when Wario needs to swim down a channel, the bubbles become a nuisance, as they push him back to the surface. In ''Wario Land II'', the boss [[Awabō]] is made from a bubble. | |||

In ''[[Donkey Kong Jungle Beat]]'', bubbles are spawned by [[Bubble Shrub]]s. They can be climbed into, causing them to rise with him inside. In the original release, controlling the bubble is the same as controlling [[Donkey Kong]]'s walk, but in ''[[New Play Control! Donkey Kong Jungle Beat]]'', it is instead controlled by tilting the [[Wii Remote]]. Additionally, small bubbles hold [[Banana Bunch]]es in many levels, and can be popped with a [[clap]]. Winged versions of these move around. In the reissue, bubbles in the [[Opening Ceremony]] and [[Banana Banquet]] also contain trapped [[Helper Monkey]]s. | In ''[[Donkey Kong Jungle Beat]]'', bubbles are spawned by [[Bubble Shrub]]s.
