Pyoro, as it appears in Gold

Template:Quote2 Pyoro is a secret minigame in WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!, unlocked once all microgames are encountered and unlocked for free play. It also appears in WarioWare Gold in the game's Toy Room. In it, the player controls Pyoro, a small, red, bird creature, while several vegetables (referred to as "veggies" in Mega MicroGame$!) fall from the sky. The goal is to eat as many of the vegetables as possible by grabbing them with Pyoro's extremely long tongue. A slightly updated version of this minigame with an extended playing area is included in the DSiWare game Bird & Beans, while a version with a 16:9 playing area and different graphical styles is included in Game & Wario as Bird.

Gameplay

Pyoro can extend his tongue by holding on , until it reaches the end of the screen or a vegetable is caught. The player can also let go of to cancel the tongue action early. The player can receive either 10, 50, 100, 300 or 1000 points depending on how high the vegetable was when caught by Pyoro's tongue. If a vegetable hits the ground before being eaten, it destroys the block of floor that it landed on (if any), giving Pyoro less room to move around. If Pyoro himself is hit by a falling vegetable, the game ends.

Types of Vegetables

Image	Name	Description
	Vegetable	This is the regular vegetable that has an 8/9 chance of spawning with no secondary effect.
	White Vegetable	This has a 1/9 chance of spawning and once eaten, a Tenshi appears and returns the nearest lost block of floor.
	Flashing Vegetable	This spawns instead of the other 2 vegetables when the player reaches 5,000 or 7,000 points, and every multiple of 1,000 points starting at 9,000 points. When eaten, all the other airborne vegetables are destroyed, which rewards the player 50 points each and up to 10 Tenshi can appear to restore the nearest blocks like the White Vegetable.
