The Super Big Tap-Tap is a gigantic monster Tap-Tap that appears in Yoshi's Island DS. It chases after Yoshi and the babies around various sections of the Island and has the ability crush dense rocks during it's rampage. Yoshi must utilize Baby Mario's dash ability in order to escape with success. The Super Big Tap-Tap is indestructible and cannot be destroyed in any way however, tossing an egg at it will cause it to appear in the Island Museum.
History[]
The Super Big Tap-Tap makes it's first attempt at Yoshi and the babies' lives during the level Mario's Fleet Feet. It chases after Yoshi and Baby Mario. They have to dash through the area while trying to stay ahead of the Super Big Tap-Tap. They then head through the gate as the Super Big Tap-Tap falls down the edge.
The Super Big Tap-Tap returns in Tap-Tap's Sunken Cave. It is found in the end near the muddy lava cavern. Yoshi and Baby Mario need to dash across the stone platforms and avoid falling into the lava below. After an intense chase, the Super Big Tap-Tap falls into the lava below.
The Super Big Tap-Tap is seen again at At last Bowser's Castle. In this level, it appears in Baby Mario's room. Yoshi must run across the rock platforms and the moving platforms to escape but an alternate option would be to wait on the moving platform and the Super Big Tap-Tap will pass Yoshi, after waiting for a minute, Yoshi can continue across the rock platforms at his own pace and avoid the incoming Gusties with one less thing to worry about.
The Super Big Tap-Tap makes his final appearance in the level Quit it already Tap-Tap. It is first seen at the beginning the moment Yoshi activates the ! Switch. It will start rampaging after him destroying the stone rocks ahead. What Yoshi should do instead is wait at the beginning for a couple minutes and let the Super Big Tap-Tap pass by after this, he should hit the ! Switch again and race along the platforms at his own pace. The Super Big Tap-Tap is next seen at the vertical section where it chases after Yoshi and Baby Peach. They must use the wind to escape (while avoiding the Thorns) and reach the door at the top before the Super Big Tap-Tap breaks the floor below it and the wind dies out. The Super Big Tap-Tap is next seen during the final Mine Cart section. Here, it chases after Yoshi and the babies as the Cart races along the tracks. After this, the Super Big Tap-Tap falls off the edge and Yoshi reaches the Goal.
