==Description==  
==Description==  
Smeeches are first encountered in the [[Yoshi Star Galaxy]], starting with the first mission, [[Saddle Up with Yoshi]]. They are encountered later on in the [[Hightail Falls Galaxy]], the [[Haunty Halls Galaxy]], the [[Sweet Mystery Galaxy]], and the [[Starshine Beach Galaxy]]. Smeeches flee from [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] if they encounter them. However, if either brother is riding [[Yoshi]], they float towards him, eventually kissing Yoshi and attaching to his mouth. This prevents Yoshi from using his tongue or eating [[fruit]]s, and they also latch on to his mouth if Yoshi tries to eat one.

Line 12: Line 10:
A Smeech remains attached to Yoshi's mouth for as long as it can, even when the player uses a [[Launch Star]]. The Smeech can be defeated with a [[spin]] or a [[jump]] from the unmounted Mario or Luigi; Yoshi can also spin to remove the Smeech, causing it to vanish and drop [[Star Bit]]s. If Mario or Luigi dismounts or is knocked off Yoshi, the Smeech detaches from Yoshi's mouth and begins to hover away.
