Skeleton Goonie

Skeleton Goonies are skeletal undead versions of Goonies that appear in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3, Yoshi Touch & Go, Yoshi's Island DS, Yoshi's New Island, and Yoshi's Woolly World. Unlike normal Goonies, they cannot be ridden on, and will lose their wings and fall if this is attempted. They also fall if attacked with an egg. Some carry bombs to drop on Yoshi, similar to regular Goonies, but they never carry green Shy Guys. Oddly enough, they have feathers even though they have skeletal wings. A flightless variety exists known as the Flightless Skeleton Goonies.

Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island
In Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, even though they had their own level, World 6-1: Scary Skeleton Goonies!, they debuted in the first skiing part of World 5-3: Danger - Icy Conditions Ahead. They also appear in the opening segment of King Bowser's Castle.

Yoshi Touch & Go
They appeared in Yoshi Touch & Go where they behaved like their non-skeletal counterparts, flying in the top screen, sometimes dropping bombs and Shy Guys. Hitting them with an egg rewards a Blue Coin.

Yoshi's Island DS
They also appear in Yoshi's Island DS and Yoshi's New Island with little to no differences in behavior or physical appearance. In the former, due to them using sprites edited from Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island while Goonie uses sprites edited from Yoshi Touch & Go, Skeleton Goonies are conspicuously smaller than ordinary Goonies.

Yoshi's New Island
They appear in Yoshi's New Island, where they appear in Bowser's Castle Break-In.

Yoshi's Woolly World
They appear in Yoshi's Woolly World in three levels: Kamek's Last-Ditch Flyby, King Bowser's Castle, and Skeleton Goonies' Lava Lair. Like most other elements in the game, Skeleton Goonies have a woolly appearance.

Yoshi's Crafted World
Despite not reappearing in Yoshi's Crafted World as enemies, Skeleton Goonies cameo as platforms in Poochy's Magma Run and background elements in the first phase of The Great King Bowser.

Super Princess Peach
Skeleton Goonies as well as Flightless Skeleton Goonies also make a cameo appearance, though not as an enemy, in Super Princess Peach. They appear in the background of the Wavy Beach minigame in the level where Gooper Blooper is fought.

 * Official Nintendo Player's Guide: Unlike their feathered family-members, you can't hitch a ride on a Skeleton Goonie.

Yoshi Touch & Go
(They appear from either side of the sky, drop a Shy Guy, and leave. If you miss them, they will come back again and again with Shy Guys, so it is important to defeat them as soon as possible. You should aim at them before they drop their Shy Guys.)
 * Shogakukan guide: 上空の左右どちらかから現れ、ヘイホーを落として去っていく. 見逃すと何度でもヘイホーを連れてもどってくるので、早めに倒しておきたい. ヘイホーを落とす前をねらうといい.
