History

Yoshi's Island series

Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island

Helicopter Yoshi first appears in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island in the level Watch Out Below!, where the player transforms into this form by touching a morph bubble. In this form, the player can fly around the level until they reache the Yoshi Block or until there time as a helicopter runs out. As with other transformations, the latter sends him back to the position where the morph bubble was touched. The Helicopter can be controlled with the D-pad. Touching an enemy while in this form makes the Yoshi fall a short distance, unable to be controlled, which can cause the player to lose time and a life if they fall into a pit.

Yoshi's Island DS

Helicopter Yoshi reappears in Yoshi's Island DS, functioning the same as it did in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island.

In volume 14 of the Super Mario-Kun, Yoshi eats a morph bubble and turns into the Helicopter. He carries Mario and Luigi; Mario then makes the Helicopter eat a Watermelon. This causes the Helicopter to spit seeds at Kamek, the Toadies, and even Baby Mario who was getting carried by the Toadies in the process.
