History

Yoshi's Island series

Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island

Watermelons
The three different types of watermelon

In Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island and its reissue, there are three different types of watermelon (parsed as Water Melon in one preview)[1] that offer special attacks. Green watermelons allow a Yoshi to spit out the seeds as projectiles; if a green watermelon already has a bite mark in it, there will be only a third as many seeds. Ukikis have many watermelons, some half-eaten by them, which they use to spit seeds at a Yoshi. Red watermelons allow three shots of fire breath that burn enemies and melt Ice Blocks. Blue watermelons allow three shots of ice breath that freeze enemies, making them harmless and immobile and causing them to break apart when a Yoshi touches them. Super Green Watermelons, Super Red Watermelons, and Super Blue Watermelons are also available as Special Items, which automatically give a Yoshi the ability of the watermelon as if he had gulped it. Watermelons are featured prominently in the Mini Battle called Watermelon Seed Spitting Contest.

The Super Green Watermelon[2] Special Item is available in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island and Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3, and it gives a Yoshi as many as 60 seeds.

Yoshi's New Island

Watermelons in Yoshi's New Island are functionally the same as in the original. Watermelons with bite marks are first encountered in Ukiki Jammin', first held by an Ukiki and having seeds that are spat out by them. A full variant of the watermelon is found in Ride the Blarggwich. Red and blue watermelons can also be found in later levels of the game, with red watermelons first debuting in Harry Hedgehog's Labyrinth and blue watermelons in Brave the Bumpty Blizzard.

Super Mario-kun

Watermelons appear in volume 14 of Super Mario-kun, which is the adaption of Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island. Here, as in the game, they give characters who eat them respective abilities. The first time they appear, Mario and Luigi stuff a Super Red Watermelon inside a crying Baby Mario to quiet him. He then breathes fire at Toadies who first attempted to attack. The next time they appear, Helicopter Yoshi eats a Super Green Watermelon and spits seeds at Kamek, Toadies, and Baby Mario they are carrying. During their battle against a Lunge Fish, Mario stuffs a Super Blue Watermelon inside Yoshi to make Yoshi freeze the Lunge Fish.

Yoshi's Story

Sprite of a Watermelon from Yoshi's Story

In Yoshi's Story, watermelons appear as the favorite fruit of Green Yoshis, along with melons.

Mario Party series

Mario Party

In Mario Party, the board Yoshi's Tropical Island contains Watermelon Island, an island with several giant watermelons.

Mario Party 5

In Mario Party 5, Super Duel Mode contains a weapon for machines called the Seed Machine Gun, which is modeled after the watermelons from Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island. It is a weak, lightweight gun that fires seeds at a rapid rate and is worth five Battle Game Points.

Mario Party 10

In Mario Party 10, watermelons appear in the minigame Watermelon Whalin', where they are carried by the rival players. The solo player's objective is to break them.

Donkey Kong 64

“For 7 coins, I can now give you an extra melon to help you live longer and upgrade your weapon. Do you want it?”

A melon slice in Donkey Kong 64.

In Donkey Kong 64, watermelons, referred to as melons in this game, are used as the Kongs' life meter. Each melon is made up of four slices. If a Kong gets hit by an enemy or gets in contact with a stage hazard, such as lava or quicksand, they lose a melon slice of their health, sometimes even half a melon (the equivalent of two slices). The Kongs can refill their health with the melon slices that they find, either by breaking open a Melon Crate or by defeating enemies such as Kritters or Gnawties. If the Kongs lose all their health, they are sent back to the starting point of the area. At first, the Kongs start out only having one melon in their health meter, but they can have up to three by obtaining a melon upgrade from Candy Kong in Angry Aztec and Crystal Caves each. Melons are also used as ammo in some bonus stages such as Teetering Turtle Trouble.

Super Mario series

Super Mario Sunshine

Watermelon from Super Mario Sunshine.
A watermelon in Super Mario Sunshine

In Super Mario Sunshine, massive watermelons appear. In Gelato Beach, the Surf Cabana makes juice smoothies out of watermelons, and there is a Watermelon Festival to show off the person with the largest watermelon. The watermelons there are quite sensitive to pressure, and act and look more like water balloons. In the secret levels and Pianta Village, watermelon blocks can be found, which act as breakable blocks.

Super Mario Galaxy

A watermelon planet
The watermelon planet in Super Mario Galaxy

In Super Mario Galaxy, when 9999 Star Bits are collected, all the green coconuts in the game turn into watermelons. A watermelon is also featured in the Bubble Blastoff mission in the Deep Dark Galaxy. Mario lands on a glass planet where he must Ground Pound the three encircling tennis balls within the planet which will hit the watermelon in the center and cause it to grow visibly larger until it shatters the glass planet and becomes the new planet.

Super Mario Galaxy 2

Roctos shooting watermelons in Super Mario Galaxy 2

In Super Mario Galaxy 2, all green coconuts turn into watermelons when 9999 Star Bits are collected, like in the previous game.

Super Mario Bros. Wonder

While normal watermelons do not appear in Super Mario Bros. Wonder, there are watermelon variants of Piranha Plants called Melon Piranha Plants that spit out watermelon seeds which players can bounce off of. Like in the Yoshi's Island series, if a Yoshi eats a Melon Piranha Plant, it can spit out a large number of watermelon seeds at rapid-fire pace, or, if it grabs one of the seeds the enemy spits out, it can spit it back out.

Nintendo Puzzle Collection

In Nintendo Puzzle Collection, green, red, and blue Watermelons cascade down the screen when a stage of Round 9 is cleared in the Action Mode of Yoshi no Cookie.

Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze

In Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze, explosive watermelons known as Watermelon Fuse Bombs appear. They can be picked up and thrown at enemies to defeat them, or at certain obstacles to destroy them, usually to reveal a secret. Large rectangular watermelons also make an appearance as platforms in the level Fruity Factory, a reference to real-life square watermelons grown in Japan.

Yoshi's Woolly World / Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World

In Yoshi's Woolly World and Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World, Yoshi uses the green watermelons to spit out seeds that can hit enemies and Winged Clouds, break sponge obstacles, and reach collectible items. When there is a bite on a watermelon, there will be third as many seeds in it. Fire and ice watermelons also make a return. A fire watermelon allows Yoshi to breathe out three streams of fire. Fire melts ice blocks as well as defeating enemies. In this game, an ice watermelon allows Yoshi to breathe out five streams of ice which can freeze enemies upon contact.
