A Needlenose is a spikey green or yellow ball that certain enemies spit. They can be turned into eggs. Needlenoses appear in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, Yoshi Touch and Go, and Yoshi's Island DS.

Yellow Needlenoses, when spat at a Yoshi, will pop. Green Needlenoses will bounce. They can be spat from a Blow Hard and it's relatives, or a Wild Ptooie Piranha. A Needlenose will also sometimes bounce on top of a Cactus. If Yoshi defeats or eats the Needlenose, the Cactus will frown and lay down, however, it will regenerate another Needlenose shortly after.
