Spiky Stroll is the fifth level of World 2 in Yoshi's Woolly World and Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World. Poochy is introduced in this level.

Layout[edit]

The level starts out with a lone Fang and a few Stilt Guys. It then features a sea of spikes with Gusties, Fangs, and more Stilt Guys. A second sea of spikes follows (although it is much smaller), then a transition to the next area. The first checkpoint appears, along with Poochy. After a while, Yoshi comes across some blocks which must be Ground Pounded in order for Poochy to continue. The block trail continues until two opposite alcoves, which must be ground pounded. A longer sea of spikes follows, with more Gusties. Reaching the end of the area forces Poochy to leave Yoshi, who enters the next area. The second checkpoint follows, and more Stilt Guys appear, as well as a fourth sea of spikes. There is also a fifth sea of spikes, followed by a sixth, seventh, eighth, and ninth, where a Lakitu and Flooffs appears. Yoshi must then traverse one last sea of spikes where Poochy is re-encountered. This leads to the goal roulette.

Collectibles[edit]

Smiley Flowers[edit]

• Smiley Flower 1: At the first field of spikes, there is a green warp pipe that Yoshi can enter by jumping on a Gusty. It leads Yoshi to an area with many Gusties and the Smiley Flower. He must throw a yarn ball at it to collect it.
• Smiley Flower 2: After the long row of blocks, in an alcove that only Poochy can enter. To get it, Yoshi must ground pound the blocks once Poochy is inside, jump next to the alcove so that Poochy can jump himself and collect the Smiley Flower, then run over to the other side to meet up with Poochy again and collect it.
• Smiley Flower 3: While riding Poochy across the third sea of spikes, Yoshi must throw a yarn ball at this otherwise inaccessible Smiley Flower.
• Smiley Flower 4: At the fourth sea of spikes, there is a hidden platform which can be filled in via a yarn ball. If Yoshi lands on this platform and jumps to the left, he will approach an area containing the Smiley Flower.
• Smiley Flower 5: At the second platform which can be filled in via yarn ball (just before Poochy is re-encountered), Yoshi must throw another yarn ball at the Lakitu and steal its cloud to obtain the final Smiley Flower.

Wonder Wools[edit]

• Wonder Wool 1: In the alcove next to the second Stilt Guy, there is a hidden Winged Cloud. Yoshi must throw a yarn ball at it in order to reveal the Wonder Wool, then jump on a higher ledge to collect it.
• Wonder Wool 2: Just above the second sea of spikes. Yoshi must jump on a Stilt Guy to obtain it.
• Wonder Wool 3: In the alcove opposite the alcove with the second Smiley Flower, which only Poochy can access. Yoshi must guide Poochy across the alcove from the higher ledge to get the Wonder Wool.
• Wonder Wool 4: At the fifth sea of spikes, there is a green warp pipe on the left that can be accessed via a Donut Block. Inside, Yoshi must avoid the Stilt Guys to collect the Wonder Wool.
• Wonder Wool 5: Right next to where Poochy reappears. To collect it, Yoshi must simply walk onto Poochy and ride him to the Wonder Wool.

Collecting all the Wonder Wools knits Poochy Yoshi back together.

Sponge Cave Spelunking is the third level of World 1 in the game Yoshi's Woolly World and Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World. It takes place in a cave area, and it contains several sponge blocks and Chomp Rocks.

Layout[edit]

The level starts out with the player next to a Chomp Rock, if they push it to the left, they can get some beads and a piece of Wonder Wool, and pushing it right will allow the player to destroy some sponge blocks, and allow them to get to a Warp Pipe that leads to the next area. In the next area, the player will have to Ground Pound to get to the bottom of the area, and another Warp Pipe. The next room has more sponge blocks and some Nipper Plants. After this section is a small area with green and red mushroom platforms, on the second red mushroom platform is a hidden Winged Cloud, which will create several more mushroom platforms when it is hit with a Yarn Ball. Using these platforms, the player can get to a Warp Pipe that needs filling in, which will lead to some beads and another piece of Wonder Wool. After this is a small downhill section, before it levels out. If the player ground pounds some sponge blocks just after the purple mushroom, they will go to a secret area with a Winged Cloud, which creates beads and another piece of Wonder Wool. After this is a checkpoint, and a Warp Pipe.

The next area starts with a section where the Chomp Rock is needed to defeat enemies and get through the sponge blocks. At the end of this section, the Chomp Rock falls into a small crevice and the player can activate the Winged Cloud by it, which will create some mushroom platforms that lead to a Present Box. The player will then need to climb up the cave, before using a Spring Ball to leave it. After this is a small grassy section before the Goal Ring.

Smiley Flowers[edit]

• Smiley Flower #1: In the first cave section at the start of the level, the player must break the sponge blocks under the Jump Block in order to lower it, then the player should use it to bounce to the top of the cave, where the first Smiley Flower is located.
• Smiley Flower #2: Above the first slope in the third area, the player may notice this Smiley Flower blocked off by some sponge blocks. Yoshi should use either a yarn ball or his head to break the blocks and gain access to the Flower.
• Smiley Flower #3: In the fourth area (after the first checkpoint), the player must push a Chomp Rock down some slopes to the bottom of the cave. After passing by some Piranha Plants and a Stamp Patch, the player may notice some beads located under a ceiling. The player should use the Chomp Rock to enter the ceiling, which reveals a hidden area with the Smiley Flower.
• Smiley Flower #4: After collecting Flower 3, the player should push the Chomp Rock to the end of the path in order to reveal an invisible Winged Cloud. Yoshi should hit it with an egg in order to reveal a mushroom platform staircase up to a Present Box, which (when opened) contains the Smiley Flower.
• Smiley Flower #5: At the end of the fourth area, the player should use the sponge blocks to reach a hidden alcove in the top-left wall (above Wonder Wool 5), which contains this Smiley Flower.

Wonder Wools[edit]

• Wonder Wool #1: At the start of the level, the player should take the first Chomp Rock and push it to the left in order to break some blocks, allowing them to reach this purple Wonder Wool.
• Wonder Wool #2: In the level's third area, the player should use the sponge blocks as platforms to reach a hidden area located above the first Piranha Plant. Upon reaching the high area, the player may notice a Winged Cloud, which (when hit) will reveal a light-blue Wonder Wool.
• Wonder Wool #3: In the level's third area, the player should jump onto the second red mushroom platform to reveal an invisible Winged Cloud. The player should then hit it with a yarn ball in order to reveal a mushroom platform staircase up to an empty Warp Pipe, which the player must 'fill' with a yarn ball. After filling it, Yoshi should enter the pipe to find this pink Wonder Wool.
• Wonder Wool #4: Under the first purple mushroom immediately after Smiley Flower 2, the player may notice some sponge blocks with a bead trail underneath them. Yoshi should ground pound the sponge blocks to find a secret area with a Winged Cloud, which (when hit) will reveal a red Wonder Wool.
• Wonder Wool #5: At the end of the fourth area, the player may notice a purple Wonder Wool under some red mushroom platforms. To reach it, the player must work their way around the wall and through some nearby sponge blocks in order to collect it.

Collecting all five Wonder Wools in the level unlocks Circus Yoshi.
