- Roger the Potted Ghost is a boss character from Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island and is located in The Potted Ghost's Castle, the castle of World 2. Roger starts out as a lifeless pot, but is transformed by Kamek's magic into a large ghost when the player enters the boss room. He is the only inanimate object that Kamek transforms into a boss.
- Yoshi's Island Boss Feature! The first boss is an inflated clown balloon named Burt the Bashful. He's mostly harmless as he bounces around the screen (his body compressing and springing thanks to the Super FX2's special effects), but if you run out of eggs during the fight, you may need to leave that safe enclave to reach the eggs the plant in the middle of the arena spits out.

Third time is a charm they say, and Nintendo did it, taking the power of the Gameboy advance to the edge they released one of the better, if not the best, platformers right into the Gameboy advance. Yoshi’s Island, the game that was bundled with the Snes 2 and probably one of the few that gave the perfect use to the SFX-2 Chip saw its release as Super Mario Advance 3.

Official Plot / Story
The story for Super Mario Advance 3: Yoshi's Island is as you would expect largely unchanged from the original setting for Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island on the SNES. Check out the scripts from the original SMW2 cinematics below:-Kamek on his broomstickFrom the first opening cinematic
Narrator: A long, long time ago.. This is a story about baby Mario and Yoshi. A stork hurries across the dusky, pre-dawn sky. In his bill, he supports a pair of twins. Suddenly, a shadow appears in a gap between the clouds and races towards the stork with blinding speed.
Kamek: 'SCRREEEECH!!!'
Kamek: 'THE BABIES ARE MINE!'
Narrator: WOW!!! Snatching only one baby, the creature vanishes into the darkness from whence it came. The second baby falls undetected towards the open sea.. OH NOO..
Yoshi's Island Ghost Boss 2017
Meanwhile, here is Yoshi's Island, home to all Yoshies. It's a lovely day, and Yoshi is taking a walk. HUH?!? Suddenly, a baby drops in onto his back. The baby seems to be fine. This is very fortunate! Wha-? Something else fell with the baby.. Let's take a peek.. It looks like a map. Maybe the stork was using it? But Yoshi can't figure it out. Yoshi decides to talk to his friends.
Kamek: AAAAAAAAAAKK!!!
Narrator: Kamek, the evil Magikoopa, and kidnapper of the baby, quickly dispatches his toadies, when he discovers that he missed the other baby!
Yoshi heads leisurely back to the other Yoshies, unaware of the danger at hand. Kamek's forces are actively searching the island. Will these two children ever reach their parents safely?
From the second cinematic
Narrator: This paradise is Yoshi's Island, where all the Yoshies live. They are all in an uproar over the baby that fell from the sky. Wait! The baby seems to know where he wants to go.. The bond between the twins informs each of them where the other one is. The Yoshies decide to carry the baby to his destination via a relay system. Now begins a new adventure for the Yoshies and baby Mario.
Perhaps you'd prefer to watch the opening / intro video for Super Mario Advance 3 instead? That explains the story pretty well.

Gameplay
Don’t think the lack of the X and Y button will make this game harder, the L and R button cover for most of the functions of those buttons.Yoshi has his flutter jump, achieved by keeping A pressed. B leashes out Yoshi’s long tongue to eat on enemies and he turns them into eggs by pressing down or spits them out with B, you can control de direction where you spit them. Pressing R brings out the crosshair, which you can lock with L to shoot an egg on that direction. Start pauses the game and select brings up the item selection menu, which also shows the current score of the level.

Roger the Potted Ghost[1] is a boss character from Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island and is located in The Potted Ghost's Castle, the castle of World 2. Roger starts out as a lifeless pot, but is transformed by Kamek's magic into a large ghost when the player enters the boss room. He is the only inanimate object that Kamek transforms into a boss. His face is the same as those of Dangling Ghosts and Caged Ghosts, and like them, he is amorphous. To defeat him, Blue Yoshi has to push Roger and his pot over the right edge of the platform in the same manner as pushing a regular pot. This process is complicated by two green Shy Guys that slowly push Roger in the opposite direction. Throughout the battle, Roger can lunge at Blue Yoshi, knocking him away. He also breathes blue flames which home in, forcing the blue dinosaur to stop pushing and get out of the way to avoid taking a hit. When Roger is pushed far enough, the Shy Guys topple over the edge and do not return, allowing Blue Yoshi to push him the final distance without facing resistance from them. In Yoshi's Island DS, he makes a cameo in the game's introduction, which briefly shows some of the bosses from Yoshi's Island. Additionally, there are enemies called Potted Ghosts. They look vaguely similar to Roger, but are smaller and less malevolent. One hit knocks off Yoshi's pint-sized rider, who then floats around the screen in a bubble, crying his little plumber's eyes out. Several power-ups allow Yoshi to change from his dinosaur form into a helicopter, a submarine, and burrowing craft.Sharing the spotlight, Mario can be controlled, too - but only if he gets the star power-up that affords him invincibility for a brief period.

Ultimate, Roger the Potted Ghost appears as a support spirit which grants resistance against strong winds. It is obtainable by winning his spirit battle or summoning it with the spirits of Shy Guy and Boo Mario.
