Vase (Yoshi's Story): Difference between revisions

A '''vase''', also called a '''Magic Vase''' or '''warp vase''',<ref>Leung, Jason, Terry Munson, and Scott Pelland. ''Yoshi's Story'' Player's Guide. Page 16.</ref> is a special jar that appears in ''[[Yoshi's Story]]''. Vases resemble the [[vase|pot]]s originally from ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]''; however, vases serve a different function. In ''Yoshi's Story'', vases act similarly to the [[Warp Pipe|pipe]]s from other installments of the ''[[Mario (franchise)|Mario]]'' franchise. By [[jump]]ing on top of a vase and pushing down, a [[Baby Yoshi]] enters the vase and is transported to a different location in the [[level]]. Unlike some (but not all) pipes, vases are only one-way, as they are not connected to other vases but instead generate small portals that [[warp]] the Yoshi to the next area. While jumping into a vase, the Baby Yoshi actually shrinks in size, then reappears normal-sized out of the portal (which quickly dissipates) upon reaching their destination. In some areas the Yoshi enters a vase, another vase in the next area sends them out. In this case, the Yoshi can return to the previous area by entering the vase they exited.
