- “My fiery breath is very hot! Those spiked balls are certainly not!”
- —Cloudjin, Yoshi's Story
Cloudjin is a smoke djinn that was sent by Baby Bowser to patrol the mountains of Yoshi's Island in Yoshi's Story. As such, a Yoshi must fight him after collecting 30 fruits in Stage 3-3: Poochy & Nippy. He attacks by using large spiked balls and causes them to roll down slippery teeter-totters, and breathes fire at the Yoshi. However, three shots in the stomach by a Yoshi's egg (while he is tangible) defeat Cloudjin, allowing the Yoshi to continue. Cloudjin is one of the five bosses found in the game. His name is a combination of "cloud" and "djinn," which is the Arab word for "genie."
