Follow our step-by-step guide to complete Episode 5: Secret of the Village Underside in Super Mario Sunshine, including hatching Yoshi and navigating the Chuckster platforms.
Walkthrough
- 1First, hatch the Yoshi egg found across the bridge. It requires a random fruit, which can be found on the tree near the bath from the previous episode.
- 2Once Yoshi is hatched, ride him across the bridge and jump off the cliff onto the bouncy green toadstool below.
- 3Continue across the toadstools towards the underside of the village. Hold down A/B while riding Yoshi to fly for a short duration, allowing for longer jumps between toadstools.
- 4At the end of the toadstool path, you will see an orange pile of goo on a pipe. Use Yoshi's juice by pressing X to clear the goo.
- 5Enter the secret section of the episode by heading down the cleared pipe.
- 6In the secret area, use the Chuckster Piantas to be thrown across platforms. The small pink Pianta on the second platform will launch you to the next section.
- 7Talk to the small orange Pianta, ensuring you wait until he is near the edge of the platform to be thrown onto the next ledge.
- 8Speak to the large Pianta lady to be lobbed upwards.
- 9The blue Pianta ahead will throw you up and behind him.
- 10Finally, wait for the small Pianta to line up with the platform to the left, and let him launch you to the Shine Sprite.
Tips
- When using Yoshi to fly, holding A/B allows for short bursts of flight, crucial for making long jumps between toadstools.
- Be mindful of the Chuckster Piantas' throwing strengths and directions. Line them up carefully to avoid being thrown off course or into the void.
- The small pink Pianta on the second platform is essential for progressing to the next area.
- Wait for the small orange Pianta to be near the edge before talking to him to ensure you are thrown onto the correct next ledge.
