More variations of them are introduced, including the tabooBlack Apple (which wakes upPrincess Peach); the luscious but cursedGolden Apple; the mustache-inducingYellow Apple; the fruit-transformingPink Apple; and the shrinkingBlue Apple. All apples in this game simply restore five HP, except for the Black Apple, which restores only one when used on a playable character; the above ailments are induced only when they are given to a non-playable character.

This results in Dr. Crygor being merged with the apple, upgrading him.
