Harry Hedgehog

Harry Hedgehog is a blue hedgehog enemy which appears in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island and its Game Boy Advance remake Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3.
==In Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island==
Harry Hedgehog appears mainly in cave levels to get in the way of the Yoshis. When Yoshi comes close to these foes, they turn from small to large and thorny. A Yoshi can only eat and convert a Harry Hedgehog into an egg while it is small, not while it is swelled up.
Harry Hedgehogs are the main and titular feature of their own level, The Cave Of Harry Hedgehog. In the remake, Harry Hedgehogs appear in another level, Go! Go! Morphing!.
==Trivia==
*They are slightly based on Porcupos from Super Mario Bros. 2.
*While never officially confirmed, Harry Hedgehog is thought to be based on Sonic the Hedgehog, given its blue fur and the ability to move fast. Adding to this is the fact that Nintendo and Sega were formerly major first-party rivals, especially during the 1990s, when Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island was released. During that time period, Nintendo and Sega would often mock one another's works in their games. Following the end of said rivalry in the mid-2000s', Harry was changed to purple.
