A ball[1] is a silver sphere with a red treble clef on it. It is also an item found only in Yoshi Topsy-Turvy. Balls help Yoshi get through levels. Sometimes, a ball rolls over a xylophone, causing a rising note to appear, and Yoshi can use it as a platform. Yoshi can jump onto the ball, and when the Game Boy Advance is tilted (Tilt motion control), the ball rolls in the corresponding direction. Balls are also found in Shuffle Mode.
