“Oh, hey! Could you do me a favor and get up on top of this tank? There's a switch up there that I'd like you to jump on. It looks like a piece of fruit's jammed in the pipe.”

—Pianta,Super Mario Sunshine

Yoshi's Fruit Adventure is the eighth episode ofRicco Harbor inSuper Mario Sunshine. The episode's objective is to rideYoshi to the far platforms south of the plaza. In order to complete this episode, the player must have first completedEpisode 4 ofPinna Park and rescued Yoshi fromShadow Mario inDelfino Plaza.

Layout[edit]

The player must make their way to the plaza, where there is a large market taking place. Next to the market is aYoshi egg asking for adurian, so the player has toGround Pound the buttons on top of the fruit machine next to the market until they get the fruit. Kicking the durian to the Yoshi egg will haveYoshi pop out as a Purple Yoshi the player can ride.

To get to the episode'sShine Sprite, the player has to use Yoshi to cross over the water to the platforms past the helipad. If Yoshi ends up falling into the water, Yoshi will drown and the player has to start over. By spraying theCheep-Cheeps jumping out of the water with Yoshi's juice, they will turn intohorizontally moving platforms that will carryMario and Yoshi closer to the platforms. Once the player reaches the first platform, they can either eat thecoconut in the palm tree to the left or useSpin Jumps to reach the higher platforms. Eating the coconut will turn Yoshi into Pink Yoshi, and spraying the Cheep-Cheeps with now will result in vertically moving pink platforms. At the highest platform is a cage with anOrange Juice Generator that only Yoshi can destroy by spraying it. Ground Pounding the panel that the Orange Juice Generator was covering will flip Mario into the cage and he will be able to collect the Shine Sprite.

• This is the only episode inSuper Mario Sunshine where a Durian is the required fruit to get Yoshi to hatch from his egg.
• In theSuper Mario 3D All-Stars port ofSuper Mario Sunshine prior to version 1.1.0, due to the aspect ratio being expanded to widescreen, a Pianta visibly spawned mid-air in the intro of Yoshi's Fruit Adventure.^[3][4]
• If the player manages to talk to all threeduck-ring riders, a1-Up Mushroom will appear. To do this, Mario has to be standing on land to talk to them.^[5]
