Flower 5 (32)

Don't miss Flower 5 in Yoshi's Island DS! This guide helps you grab the tricky Character Coin and the final Flower with step-by-step instructions.

Alright, you've snagged that flower, nice! Now, let's backtrack a bit. Head all the way to the far left side of the area. You'll see a platform above the track – jump up there to grab another red coin. You're at 16 now, keep it up!

Next, go left and take out that Piranha Plant. Once it's dealt with, head down the pipe to a new room. Here's a tricky part: there's a minecart, but do NOT jump in it. Instead, hop right over it. Now, run back and forth along the track, collecting all those coins. When you reach the end of the track, you'll need to jump onto the Paratroopas. Use Yoshi's flutter ability to make your way to the high ledge on the right.

Once you land, you'll see a Stork Stop. Use it to switch to Baby DK – he's the key for what's next. Head right, and you'll need to use Baby DK's dash ability. Time your dashes carefully to get past each set of bumpers without falling into them. It looks a bit hectic, but just keep dashing!

If you nail that, you'll reach some ledges above. Jump up to them, and you'll find a red switch. Hit it! This makes red platforms appear. Hop along these new platforms until you reach the very top one. Now, you need to be patient. A timer will start counting down. Just before the third warning sound plays, you need to jump and flutter to the right. When the wall of blocks vanishes, land on the ledge and grab that Character Coin!

Got it? Awesome. Now, drop down to the lower area and then carefully drop off the right edge. You'll find some eggs waiting in a flower – grab 'em! Head left and jump above the dirt patch; you should reveal a winged cloud. Shoot it with an egg to get five stars. Finally, ground pound through that dirt patch. When you land, jump up to collect the last Flower nearby. You've done it!
