Fooly Flowers,[1] originally known as Dizzy Dandies,[2] are flowerhead enemies that appear in every Yoshi game to date. At first sight, they look like the collectible Smiley Flowers, floating in midair, but with menacing grins. However, when a Yoshi approaches them, they drop to the ground, rolling very quickly, squashing any enemies, and hurting the Yoshi upon contact. They disappear after hitting a wall. The Yoshi can also cause one to laugh and prematurely attack by shooting an egg at it from a distance.
In Yoshi's Crafted World, Fooly Flowers have a different role. When a Yoshi hits a Time Cloud with an egg, the challenge provided could possibly be for the Yoshi to find the real Smiley Flower among a large group of Fooly Flowers, and throw an egg at the collectible before time expires. Here, if a Fooly Flower gets hit, it simply disappears.
Fooly Flowers' original English name was based on "dandelion," and their modern English name indicates how they resemble Smiley Flowers and can fool the player into thinking they are one.
