Balloon Baby Yoshi

Balloon Baby Yoshi is a magenta Baby Yoshi appearing in New Super Mario Bros. U. It allows the player to reach higher places by inflating like a balloon when the player shakes the Wii Remote or presses the button on the Wii U GamePad. Balloon Baby Yoshis can inflate to a maximum of seven times, and will deflate afterwards or when the player lands. Other players can grab on to the player with the Baby Yoshi presumably the same way players can lift another.

Trivia

 * Balloon Baby Yoshi is very similar to Blimp Yoshi from Super Mario Galaxy 2, except that the latter has a time limit rather than an input limit.
