A Blow Hard[1] is a Pokey that fires smaller yellow Pokeys at a Yoshi in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island (and its reissue), Yoshi's Island DS, and Yoshi's New Island. Despite being a Pokey, it more closely resembles a Piranha Plant due to its spherical spotted head and large lips. It always faces a Yoshi and has a blinking crosshair to tell where it is firing. Any solid objects and platforms can stop its projectiles. It is nearly invincible, but a Yoshi can pound the ground nearby or throw an egg at it to temporarily knock it out; however, it wakes up a few seconds later. It can be defeated entirely in the first game with a blue watermelon or red watermelon.

Although Blow Hards spit yellow Pokeys, their artwork for Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island depicts them spitting green ones instead.
