Smooch Spiders are four legged yellow and white spiders with large lips, spikes on their bottoms, and white beads for feet. They first appear in Yoshi's Woolly World and reappear in the remake Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World. They attempt to hurt Yoshi by pulling the web Yoshi's on and then trying to kiss him to hurt him. If Yoshi makes contact with a Smooch Spider, he will also get hurt. They cannot be defeated from eating or stomping them, though, unlike their smaller counterpart, they can be stunned by throwing a yarn ball at them. Some Smooch Spiders move up and down and some swing back and forth. In one small area, about four Smooch Spiders spin a large web harmoniously. If a Smooch Spider kisses something other than Yoshi himself, he is able to eat the heart projectile it makes and turn it to a pink yarn ball. Shy Guys and beads can be found tangled in their webs.
Smooch Spiders only appear in the level Lair of the Smooch Spiders.
The artwork for Smooch Spiders shows them slightly differently from their in-game models: they are shown with deep orange lips in their artwork, but they have light pink ones in-game.
