'''Roger the Potted Ghost'''<ref>http://web.archive.org/web/20030402151900/http://www.nintendo.com/games/gamepage/artwork.jsp?gameId=1282</ref> is a boss character from ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' and is located in [[The Potted Ghost's Castle]], the castle of [[World 2 (Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island)|World 2]]. Roger starts out as a lifeless [[pot|flower pot]], but is transformed by [[Kamek|Kamek's]] magic into a large ghost when the player enters the boss room. He is the only inanimate object that Kamek transforms into a boss. His face is the same as those of [[Dangling Ghost]]s and [[Caged Ghost]]s, and like them, he is amorphous.

To defeat him, the [[Blue Yoshi]] has to push Roger and his pot over the right edge of the platform in the same manner as pushing a regular pot. This process is complicated by two green [[Shy Guy]]s that slowly push Roger in the opposite direction. Throughout the battle, Roger can lunge at the Blue Yoshi, knocking him away. He also breathes blue flames which home in, forcing the blue dinosaur to stop pushing and get out of the way to avoid taking a hit. When Roger is pushed far enough, the Shy Guys topple over the edge and do not return, allowing the Blue Yoshi to push him the final distance without facing resistance from them.

In ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]'', he makes a cameo in the game's introduction, which briefly shows some of the bosses from ''Yoshi's Island''. Additionally, there are enemies called [[Potted Ghost]]s. They look vaguely similar to Roger, but are smaller and less malevolent.
