Cloud Drops,[1][2] also referred to as Blusties[3] or erroneously Gusties,[4] are cloud monsters that fly in a short line vertically or horizontally in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island (and its remake), Yoshi Touch & Go, Yoshi's Island DS, and Yoshi's New Island. They appear in packs and in areas where a Yoshi can turn into a helicopter. They move quickly, but they can be defeated with a hit on the head. While their Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island artwork depicts them as a recolor of the Lava Drop, their sprites are distinct.
In Yoshi's Woolly World, enemies resembling Cloud Drops, known as Wiks, appear.
Profiles and statistics
Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island
- Official Nintendo Player's Guide: Watch out for these wherever the billowy white stuff is found on Yoshi's Island.[1]
- Shogakukan guide: ゆらゆらと同じ場所を行ったり来たり。タマゴ投げで倒したり、食べたりもできる。[5] (It wobbles back and forth in the same place. You can throw an egg to defeat or eat it.)
Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3
- Shogakukan guide: ゆらゆらと同じ場所を行ったり来たり。食べてしまうか、タマゴ投げで倒そう。[6] (It wobbles back and forth in the same place. Eat it or defeat it by throwing an egg.)
Yoshi Touch & Go
- Shogakukan guide: 空中の同じルートを、上下または左右に往復する。ルートをさえぎるように雲を描き、足止めしてから倒すといい。たくさんいるときは、雲で壁を作って、反対側に閉じこめてしまえば安全。[7]
(It will move back and forth along the same route in the air, either up and down or to the left and right. It is a good idea to draw a cloud to block the route, stop them in their tracks, and then take them down. If there are many of them, it is safer to build a wall with clouds and confine them on the other side.)
