The '''Melon Race''' is a special [[minigame]] that occurs in ''[[Yoshi's Story]]''. The event is triggered after a [[Baby Yoshi]] hits specific [[? Block]]s located in certain [[level]]s. When the ? Block is hit, a red flag with the yellow word "START" on it appears near the ? Block, while a GOAL flag appears at some larger distance away. The goal of the Melon Race is to cross the finish line as quickly as possible after passing by the starting line. The faster this is accomplished, the more [[melon]]s the [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] is awarded upon reaching the finish line, with the maximum number being seven melons. The amount of time the Baby Yoshi has to finish the race is symbolized by a [[Chain Chomp|Chomp]] slowly approaching a line of seven numbered melons near the top of the screen. If enough time has elapsed before the Yoshi reaches the finish line, the Chomp begins eating the melons one by one until the Yoshi crosses the finish line or it has eaten all of the melons, the latter resulting in the failure of the minigame. Each melon eaten by the Chomp is lost to the Baby Yoshi. After the Yoshi crosses the finish line, a [[Lakitu]] flies down and delivers the number of melons earned by the Yoshi.
