“Hey, you! In the parka! Send this Yoshi back to the Ice Age!”

—Kamek, Yoshi's Woolly World

Snifberg the Unfeeling is a large Ice Snifit that appears in Yoshi's Woolly World and Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World as the boss of World 5 in the level Snifberg the Unfeeling's Castle. It was originally a normal Ice Snifit that Kamek had enlarged. Snifberg the Unfeeling looks similar to its original Ice Snifit form, with the main difference being its large size. It is able to shoot regular Ice Snifits out of the nozzle on its mask. The mask itself is made of wood, while the rest of Snifberg the Unfeeling's body is made of wool and covered by a parka.

Collecting all of the Wonder Wool on that stage unlocks a Yoshi costume called 'Snifberg the Yoshi'. Snifberg the Unfeeling can be seen in the Scrapbook Theater as enemy number 71 and also appears in the Boss Tent.

Battle[edit]

Once the battle begins, Snifberg the Unfeeling spins in place while blowing ice, creating an ice barrier around itself. This ice barrier prevents Snifberg the Unfeeling from being jumped on or attacked directly. Snifberg the Unfeeling's first attack consists of creating an ice block, which it then kicks towards Yoshi. It will then spit out three Ice Snifits, one after the other. Afterwards, Snifberg the Unfeeling creates spikes on its ice barrier, then proceeds to slam along the ground until the last turn, when it flies up by spraying ice out of its nozzle and slams into the ground. Yoshi must hit Snifberg the Unfeeling three times in a row with a Yarn Ball, watermelon's seeds, or fire watermelon's fire breath, causing it to fall over onto ice spikes which break the ice barrier. Yoshi then needs to Ground Pound him. Naturally, Snifberg is immune to the ice watermelon.

Once hit, Snifberg the Unfeeling flies into the background, remakes its ice barrier and creates Icy Spike Balls, which appear two at a time and roll down towards Yoshi. Once finished, Snifberg the Unfeeling jumps down and creates five more ice blocks, with two of them being taller than usual. It then spits three Ice Snifits, this time all at the same time. Snifberg the Unfeeling creates spikes on its barrier once more, then flies up and slams onto the ground twice.

Once hit for the second time, Snifberg the Unfeeling flies to the background, creates another ice barrier and more Icy Spike Balls, and finally jumps to the foreground again. It then creates a stack of five ice blocks and four Icy Spike Balls and kicks them at Yoshi. Snifberg the Unfeeling then spits five Ice Snifits at Yoshi, creates spikes on its ice barrier and slams onto the ground three times. Once hit again, Snifberg the Unfeeling is defeated.

“Say hello to Big Montgomery, and say good bye to your chances of winning!”

—Kamek, Yoshi's Woolly World

Big Montgomery appears as the first mid-boss in Yoshi's Woolly World and Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World. During his boss fight, he hides in the background. After a few seconds, he jumps out of the background and performs a Ground Pound. When Montgomery does this attack, Yoshi must avoid it to not take damage. Big Montgomery later reappears as the mid-boss of World 3 and World 5.

Battles[edit]

Big Montgomery's Fort (Level 1-4)[edit]

The stage for this battle is a large woven sheet of brown wool that forms the platform Yoshi can walk on, as well as a background wall that Big Montgomery comes out of. His first attack is to dive into the floor and burrow up into the wall, visible as a large bulge in the fabric. He will burst out of the wall and try to land on Yoshi. If he misses, he will attempt to chase Yoshi across the floor area of the stage. Yoshi must jump on his head while he is exposed. Doing so will cause Big Montgomery to reveal his weak spot: a big X on his bottom. Yoshi must Ground Pound on this X to deal damage. After getting hit once, Big Montgomery throws a blue spiked ball at Yoshi that rolls along the floor, so Yoshi must jump to dodge it. Once the spiked ball has been thrown, he will do his first attack again. After getting hit again, he instead throws a red spiked ball at Yoshi, except it bounces along the ground instead of rolling. After three ground pounds on his X, the battle ends.

Big Montgomery's Bubble Fort (Level 3-4)[edit]

The second battle against Big Montgomery takes place in a very similar arena to the first. This time, the arena is a large sheet of woven pink wool. Big Montgomery now wears a helmet, so jumping over his head doesn't have any effect. Yoshi can bounce on it to gain some extra height. Big Montgomery's first attack is similar to his one from the previous battle, except that this time, he emerges with a red spiked ball on his hands and throws it at Yoshi. He also stands on top of three Monty Moles. Yoshi can swallow the Monty Moles to make yarn balls. Yoshi must shoot one at Big Montgomery to make his Monty Mole tower collapse, revealing his weak spot again. After getting hit once, Big Montgomery will dive into the wool and burrow up the wall. He again bursts out trying to land on Yoshi. This time, however, shockwaves that hurt Yoshi will ripple across the wool when he lands. Yoshi must jump to avoid them. Big Montgomery repeats his first attack, except he throws three blue spiked balls instead. After getting hit again, Big Montgomery will again burrow up the wall, but this time he emerges in the center shortly after two Monty Moles burst out from either side of him. Yoshi must dodge the Monty Moles and the shockwaves after Big Montgomery lands. He then repeats his first attack, only with three red spiked balls instead.

Big Montgomery's Ice Fort (Level 5-4)[edit]

This battle with Big Montgomery takes place in a very different stage to the previous two. The floor is made of ice blocks. Yoshi will slide if he tries to walk or run. The background wall of wool is now at an angle, resembling a ski slope. Big Montgomery's first attack is to attack Yoshi from beneath the ice blocks. When he pushes up two ice blocks and he is visible, a ground pound on these ice blocks causes him to reveal his weak spot on his bottom. After getting hit once, Big Montgomery will burrow up to the top of the wool slope and order Monty Moles to roll down the hill. As they roll, they gather fiber and enlarge like snowballs. After all the Monty Moles have rolled off the arena, Big Montgomery will again try to attack Yoshi from beneath the ice blocks. After the second hit, Big Montgomery will again make his way to the top of the hill, this time ordering seven Monty Moles to roll down the hill; first a wave of four, then a wave of three. He will then roll down the hill himself forming a massive snowball for Yoshi to dodge. Instead of reappearing under the ice blocks as previously, he burrows halfway back up the hill, bursts out, and ground pounds the ice blocks himself. This will cause a massive shockwave on either side of him, which will smash Yoshi into the ceiling, causing damage if not avoided.

He then chases Yoshi around the stage, and because he has his helmet on, Yoshi can only avoid him and wait. Also, more Monty Moles are rolling down the hill at Yoshi. Once Big Montgomery has crossed the screen two or three times, he will again try to attack Yoshi from under the ice blocks. Yoshi now must ground pound a third time to end the battle.

Boss Tent[edit]

All of Big Montgomery's battles appear in the Boss Tent, where he is fought the same way; however, he moves much faster than normal, making him harder to hit.
