EffectCan be broken by most attacks

Soft rocks[1] areblocks that appear inSuper Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island (andits reissue) andYoshi's Island DS. They are composed of thinly packed rocks that can appear in various different color schemes depending on where they are found, most typically either yellow or light gray. Soft rocks automatically merge with other soft rocks adjacent to them, visually appearing as a single mass that reshapes itself as individual blocks are broken. Soft rocks can be broken using almost any attack, includingjumping into them from below; spitting seeds by using agreen watermelon, which breaks them one at a time; or byground-pounding them from above or throwingeggs at them, which can destroy large amounts of soft rock at once as the ground-poundingYoshi or egg pierces through the soft rocks as it travels.Chomp Rocks also break soft rocks in front of and underneath them as they roll, and a Yoshi can easily dig through them in hisMole Tank form. Some enemies are capable of destroying soft rocks as well, most notablyChomp Sharks, which tear through large amounts of soft rock as they chase a Yoshi, but alsoLakitus'Spiny Eggs andbombs dropped byItem Balloons and similar sources. These enemies are typically encountered in areas where the ground is mostly made up of soft rocks, making traversal dangerous for a Yoshi. Soft rocks typically contain nothing when broken, but they can occasionally hideWinged Clouds andSmiley Flowers.

During the development ofSuper Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, soft rock pieces could also be licked up by a Yoshi.[2]
