The Chomp Rock Zone is the fifth level in World 4 in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island and Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3. As the name implies, in this level, the player has to deal with Chomp Rocks, scattered through the stage.

Overview[edit]

Purple Yoshi starts the level in a hill, with a Chomp Rock and a Message Block. Yoshi can push this Chomp Rock to defeat the enemies in his way, including a Beach Koopa and Tap-Taps. Then, Yoshi finds four posts, which can be destroyed by using a Ground Pound. In the right, defeating a couple of Shy-Guys, Yoshi finds a room, in which he can use a Green Shell to defeat a line of Koopa Troopas and earn a life. Destroying the posts, Yoshi finds a gray Chomp Rock, that must be pushed down a hill, defeating various enemies in its way. There is also an invisible Winged Cloud in the Chomp Rock spot, containing stars. In the end of the long hill, Yoshi finds more posts, requiring Ground Pounds. Here, Yoshi must hit a Winged Cloud, causing a platform to appear. This platform allows Yoshi to push the Chomp Rock. He can use it then to reach a tall plain with a Flower. Progressing through the level, Yoshi finds a pipe spawning Shy-Guys, to replinish Yoshi's Eggs. Yoshi must use the Chomp Rock to destroy orange blocks, leading to a hill.

He then gains access to a door, leading to the second part of the stage. Here, Yoshi finds a Eggo-Dil, and a Chomp Rock, used to destroy the high amount of enemies ahead. Yoshi must then hit a ? Cloud, causing a stair to appear, leading to a tall hill. In this part, Yoshi can ground pound a platform, cauisng it to become flat, and allowing him to enter a Warp Pipe leading to a Bonus Area.
