- “You should learn how to take no for an answer! Now meet my dear friend Priscilla. You'll need some fancy footwork if you want to leave her castle!”
- —Kamek, Yoshi's Island DS
Priscilla the Peckish is an antlion-like creature found on Yoshi's Island. She is the boss of World 3 in Yoshi's Island DS, and is fought in a castle named for her. Her name includes the word "peckish", a term used to describe someone who is hungry.
If the Yoshi jumps into or over the sand which she inhabits at the wrong time, Priscilla may eat him, causing him to lose all of his eggs. Yoshi can jump from platform to platform in Priscilla's path to lure her out of her sand pit and throw an egg at her. Alternatively, a Glide Guy may come out and lure her; however, this second method happens periodically and can therefore take quite some time. She also spits Pokeys. Upon being defeated, she shrinks and hides herself back in the sand.
