| | '''Balloons''', not to be confused with [[Baron Von Zeppelin]]s, are platforms that [[Yoshi]] could ride in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]''. They only appear in one level, [[Don't Look Back!]], where they came in different colors. Stepping on one of them will cause it to stop its natural rising, and using them too long will result in their disappearance. |

| ===''Donkey Kong Land''===
| | * Green |
| Balloons first appear in ''[[Donkey Kong Land]]'', where they are present only in [[Big Ape City]]'s [[Construction Site Fight]]. The balloons rise up and down, inflating and deflating as they do so. The player must time their [[jump]]s in order to land safely.

| Balloons also appear in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' and [[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3|its reissue]], where they have smiling faces and come in different colors. They appear in [[Don't Look Back!]] and a bonus area in [[Beware The Spinning Logs]], and they continuously rise from the bottom of the screen. Stepping on one of them causes it to stop its natural rising, and using them too long results in their disappearance. They reappear with the same function in ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]'' in the levels [[Windblown Wilderness]] and [[Superhard Acrobatics!]] and in ''[[Yoshi's New Island]]''.
| | * They can not be defeated or eaten. |
| | * They all go at the same speed. |

| In ''[[Super Princess Peach]]'', balloons always come in red, and they gain magenta cheek blushes with short strings hanging. They appear in [[Giddy Sky]] and remain still. If [[Princess Peach|Peach]] stands on them, they go down slowly. If she jumps off one, it makes a short rise. After being stood on the first time, a balloon blinks after a few moments and then vanishes, reappearing in its original spot after a few more seconds. To make use of balloons, she has to jump repeatedly to reach new heights before they vanish.

| | |
| ===''Yoshi's Woolly World''===
| |
| Balloons are also featured in ''[[Yoshi's Woolly World]]'', acting as they did in the ''[[Yoshi's Island (series)|Yoshi's Island]]'' games. Balloons can be popped by [[Bullet Bill]]s and [[Bull's-Eye Bill]]s. They can also be popped if they touch the ceiling.
