Popping Balloons is a Mini Battle in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island and its remake Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3.

A Yoshi and Bandit compete to try and be the first to pop the balloon containing either a 10-Point Star or 20-Point Star first. A Yoshi can pop a balloon by ground-pounding it. Whoever pops the balloon first is the winner, so if Yoshi wins, he is rewarded the 10-Point Star or 20-Point Star contained within, but if the Bandit wins, Yoshi does not earn the items.
