From this game onwards, their lunging-while-inhaling behavior is replaced with a [[Cheep Chomp|Boss Bass]]-esque leaping, showing off their entire bodies. However, they still function in the same pattern as before, sinking below the water before rising up and forwards in a jerky arc. | ||

In ''[[Tetris Attack]]'', a Lunge Fish appears as a playable character and an opponent who is paired with [[Cheep Cheep|Flopsy Fish]]. It replaces Neris, the sea fairy from ''[[Tetris Attack#Panel de Pon|Panel de Pon]]''. In this game, it is depicted as a slight friend of Yoshi's, enchanted by [[Bowser]] and [[Kamek]] to work for them. It also notes that it really does not like Yoshi much, claiming that he gives it indigestion. | In ''[[Tetris Attack]]'', a Lunge Fish appears as a playable character and an opponent who is paired with [[Cheep Cheep|Flopsy Fish]].

Lunge Fish appear in ''[[Yoshi's Woolly World]]'' as an enemy in some stages with water. In this game, Lunge Fish are modeled on coin purses, with their lips being made of coin purse clasps. Yoshi can defeat them with [[yarn ball]]s or [[watermelon (Yoshi's Island series)|watermelon]] seeds, earning a handful of [[bead]]s, but they will respawn quickly. They act as they do in ''Yoshi's New Island'', but are larger and move through the air slower.

Lunge Fish reappear as enemies in ''[[Yoshi's Crafted World]]'' during the level [[Ride the River]], where they sit in place in the background, jumping out whenever Yoshi crosses their line of sight, and can take down platforms while trying to eat him. At the end of the level, one instead pursues Yoshi horizontally, taking down several moving platforms while repetitively leaping. Near the end of the level's flip side, two can be seen looking back and forth instead of in a single direction, and as such can leap in multiple directions.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hFMOdTbACMM</ref> | Lunge Fish reappear as enemies in ''[[Yoshi's Crafted World]]'' during the level [[Ride the River]], where they sit in place in the background, jumping out whenever Yoshi crosses their line of sight, and can take down platforms while trying to eat him.
