'''Loch Nestor'''<ref>Miller, Kent, and Terry Munson. ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' Player's Guide. [[Media:SMW2 Guide 127.jpg|Page 127]].</ref> is a puffer fish enemy encountered in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'', ''[[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3]]'' and ''[[Yoshi's New Island]]''. They only appear in stages where [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] must morph into a [[Submarine (form)|Submarine]]. When Yoshi touches one, he briefly sinks to the bottom. If hit by a torpedo, Loch Nestors simply grow larger and chase Yoshi, but explode after being hit three times.

Loch Nestor derives its name from {{wp|Nestor}}, a given name, and the Scottish lake Loch Ness, which is the home of the legendary {{wp|Loch Ness Monster}}. The lips on the Loch Nestor are exactly the same as the ones on [[Cheep Cheep|Piscatory Pete]].
