History
Super Mario World
In Super Mario World and Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2, when Yoshi eats two Pink Berries, he will hatch an egg with a Yoshi Cloud inside, which then hovers above Mario and pops out ten Bonus Coin, after which it flies away. If Mario manages to collect all ten coins before they faze through the ground, the Yoshi Cloud will reward him with a 1-Up Mushroom.
Super Mario-kun
In chapter 8 of volume 2 in Super Mario-kun, while fighting a Jumping Pumpkin Plant, Mario falls on Yoshi, making him pop out an egg. Inside, a Yoshi Cloud appears. Mario jumps on it and eats the Bonus Coins, becoming the big-headed Nikoniko Mario, scaring off the enemy.
