In battle, Bessie would attempt to attack Yoshi by crushing him with several small leaps out of the water or by making a giant jump out of the water and trying to fall downward on Yoshi and eat him, jaws wide-open. It is only when Bessie makes one of these large leaps that she is vulnerable to an attack. While Bessie is in the air, Yoshi must hit her on the lips to injure her; hitting Bessie three times on the lips will be enough to defeat her.
