It appears partway through most stages and serves as a [[checkpoint]]. If a [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] loses a life after passing through one, he can restart at the point of the Checkpoint Ring. Also, passing through a Checkpoint Ring increases the Yoshi's [[Countdown Timer]] by ten and turns all onscreen enemies into [[star (Yoshi's Island series)|star]]s. However, if the player returns to the map or gets a Game Over, they will have to start the course from the beginning.

If a Yoshi loses a life after reaching a Checkpoint Ring in the [[Yoshi's Island (series)|''Yoshi's Island'' games]] up until ''Yoshi's Island DS'', the player keeps the star count (including the extra ten from reaching the ring) and [[Yoshi's Egg|eggs]] that they had when they touched it. However, in ''Yoshi's New Island'', the player's star and egg counts reset to ten and zero, respectively, if a Yoshi loses a life and restarts from a Checkpoint Ring.
