'''Morph bubbles''',<ref>''Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3'' instruction booklet, page 27.</ref><ref>''Yoshi's Island DS'' instruction booklet, page 21.</ref> also known as '''metamorphosis bubbles''',<ref>''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' instruction booklet, page 19.</ref> are floating [[bubble]]s found on [[Yoshi's Island (location)|Yoshi's Island]] in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' (and [[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3|its reissue]]) and ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]''. When a [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] touches a morph bubble, the Yoshi turns into a different form, usually a vehicle that resembles the Yoshi itself. Some transformations are temporary, while others last until the transformed Yoshi hits a [[Yoshi Block]]. If a Yoshi is transformed into a temporary form, the Yoshi must hit a Yoshi Block to turn back to a normal Yoshi, or pop another morph bubble to stay in that transformation a little while longer. Also, if a Yoshi fails to touch another morph bubble or a Yoshi Block before the transformation time runs out, the Yoshi automatically goes back to the exact location where it first touched the bubble and it reverts to its original Yoshi form.

In ''[[Yoshi's New Island]]'', morph bubbles are replaced by [[Whirly Gate]]s.

In ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'', there are sprites for three Yoshi forms that [[list of Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island pre-release and unused content|do not appear]] in the game; these include a Yoshi plane, a Yoshi mushroom, a Yoshi tree, and what appears to be a type of [[Bob-omb]]. The latter transformation is also present in a leaked prototype from December 6, 1994, where it is a single-use power-up that destroys all on-screen enemies.<ref>[https://tcrf.net/Proto:Super_Mario_World_2:_Yoshi%27s_Island/ys_romX_0#Bomb Proto:Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island/ys romX 0].
