Need help finding the first Flower in Yoshi's Island DS? Follow this quick guide to grab it and keep moving forward!

Alright, let's grab that first Flower in Yoshi's Island DS! This one's pretty straightforward, but you'll want to pay attention to the platforms.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    You'll start off heading right. Follow the path up the hill, but then drop down to the lower area. You'll see a green platform here – hop on it and ride it to the right.
  2. 2
    At the end of the platform, jump to grab some coins. You'll also spot your first Red Coin right here (that's 1/5 for this level!).
  3. 3
    Ride the green platform back to where you started, then jump up and take the upper-right path.
  4. 4
    You'll come to a yellow platform. Get on it and ride it forward. It'll drop you onto some lower tracks along the way, so just keep going.
  5. 5
    When the yellow platform ends, jump onto the clouds above the track. From there, hop onto a series of green platforms that look like a wheel.
  6. 6
    Now, hop onto the platforms on the right side of this wheel. This will make the whole set roll down the track.
  7. 7
    As you roll, you'll see some spike pits below with ghost enemies. Shoot eggs at the vases in these pits to prevent the ghosts from bothering you. Keep an eye out, because there are two more Red Coins here (that makes 3/5!).
  8. 8
    At the end of this rolling section, jump onto the large cloud. A piranha plant will start spitting spiked balls at you. Eat them to get them back to the plant and defeat it.
  9. 9
    After the piranha plant is down, hop on the speedy platform to the right. You'll need to duck under a low wall as you ride it.
  10. 10
    You'll reach an area where you have a choice to go up or down. For the Flower, you want to go up. Jump onto the Paratroopa, then get onto the red platform above it.
  11. 11
    Ride this red platform to the right. You'll then hop onto another Paratroopa. Flutter upward from this Paratroopa to grab your first Flower!
Tips
  • Don't worry too much about the ghosts in the spike pits; just focus on shooting the vases to clear the path.
  • The rolling platform section can be a little tricky, but just focus on staying on the platforms.
  • Remember to grab those Red Coins as you go – they're important for unlocking extras!
