- Spirit of Cuteness

The Tale of the Spirit of Cuteness is the first chapter of Yoshi Topsy-Turvy. Before it begins, Yoshi finds the Spirit of Cuteness and she tells him that the Egglings were transformed into apples. She, then, asks him to retrieve these apples and turn them back to normal. Yoshi is granted a Happiness Medal for each mission he completes.
