Unlike most enemies, they do not hurt [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] if he touches one, instead bouncing him up or back, making them more of an obstacle than an enemy. However, they are always seen blocking [[Warp Pipe]]s, making it necessary to defeat them to gain access to the pipes. Their name is a portmanteau of "{{wp|goblin}}," a creature in folklore and fantasy fiction that resembles a dwarf, and "gobble," referring to their ability to eat [[Yoshi's Egg|eggs]]. | |

| In order to enter a pipe, the player must throw eggs at the Gobblin, which it proceeds to eat, growing bigger with every egg. After being fed five eggs, the Gobblin starts to look full with "X" eyes, at which point only one more egg is needed to make it explode. In the [[Island Museum]], these creatures appear in the Subterranean Enemy Exhibit, and are one of the few defeatable enemies in the museum.
| | '''Gobblins''' are large, yellow, smiley face balls that appear in ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]''. They're not really enemies, since [[Yoshi]] wouldn't be hurt if he touched one. To defeat a Gobblin, the player must throw eggs at them, which causes them to eat the Yoshi eggs. The player must continue doing this until they look sick and then one more egg will finish it off.
