Bouncies (singular Bouncy or Bouncie[1][2]) are pink, bubble-like creatures first appearing in Yoshi's Island DS. They bounce back whoever touches them a fair distance, so they can help the Yoshis reach high places and speed past fast-moving crushing walls by bouncing him at a high speed. Bouncies are first encountered in the level Boing!, and in Teeth-Chattering Chill Zone, Bouncies that bounce off of the platforms can be slightly knocked backwards by hitting them. Bouncies appear prominently in Bouncy Maze.

Bouncies make a minor appearance in Yoshi's Woolly World in one of the Bonus Games.
