Image	Name	Description
	World 4-1: GO! GO! MARIO!! (Go! Go! Mario!!)	This level takes place in some hills, with large mountains in the background. The level features Goombas, in their only appearance in the game. It is the second level to feature Fuzzies, and it also features Flying Wigglers. At the end of the level, Baby Mario must take a Super Star to pass through some paths until the level exit.
	World 4-2: The Cave Of The Lakitus	Enemies found in the level include Shy-Guys, Wild Piranhas, Koopa Troopas, Tap-Taps, Wall Lakitus, Fly Guys, Fangs, Lantern Ghosts, and Baron von Zeppelins. Its name comes from the Wall Lakitus that lurk in the caverns.
	World 4-3: Don't Look Back!	The player has to deal with many Countdown Platforms in this stage, which disappear if Yoshi jumps off one of them when the number on each reaches zero.
	World 4-4: Marching Milde's Fort	This level's boss is Marching Milde.
	World 4-5: Chomp Rock Zone	As the name implies, in this level, the player has to deal with Chomp Rocks, scattered through the stage.
	World 4-6: Lake Shore Paradise	This level is located in a lake, where various Flopsy Fish jump out of the water to try and attack Yoshi. Here, there are enemies such as Koopa Troopas, Para-Koopas and Shy-Guys.
	World 4-7: Ride Like The Wind	The name of this level is a reference to a song of the same name by Christopher Cross.
	World 4-8: Hookbill The Koopa's Castle	This level's boss is Hookbill the Koopa.
	Secret 4: Fight Toadies w/ Toadies (Fight Baddies w/ Baddies)	This is the fourth of the Secret Stages, which are exclusive to Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3. Its name is a reference to the idiom "fight fire with fire."
	Extra 4: The Impossible? Maze	This is the fourth Extra Stage in the game. It appears to be a dim maze-like underground sewer that would most likely seem endless, unless Yoshi notices where he can roll to the crates to reach higher areas where a door is. He can push the crates through the water to also find other items, such as red coins and Special Flowers. The main enemies found in this level are Wild Piranhas and the Grim Leechers that come out of pipes.
	Bonus 4: Match Cards	Players need to memorize pairs of panels and flip over the correct pairing to receive Special Items or lives.

Profile

Player's Guide description: Red sky at morning, Yoshies take warning! Things got a lot hotter for the plucky babysitter as he explores the lurid landscape of World 4. When Yoshi meets a friendly face, it belongs to Marching Milde, who would love to stomp him into the ground! Koopas and Para-Koopas patrol the terrain, but they're just a warmup for the final showstopper. To get out of this world, Yoshi will have to defeat Hookbill, the biggest and baddest Koopa of them all!
