If you're a costume hunter in Yoshi's Crafted World, you might have noticed already that tapping your amiibo will net you certain unique outfits for your friendly dinosaur character. But if you keep getting the amiibo box costume over and over again, you might be wondering exactly which amiibo you need to track down in order to collect the full closet of outfits Yoshi can wear.

Here's a quick guide to all the compatible amiibo in Yoshi's Crafted World and how to use them.

What do amiibo do?

Jun 26, 2015  Yoshi’s Woolly World is compatible with plenty of amiibo, and it even has its own range of adorable amiibo, made out of knitted material: meet Green Yarn Yoshi, Pink Yarn Yoshi and Light-Blue Yarn Yoshi! Note that unfortunately, certain Amiibo - such as any and all Pokemon - do not unlock specific costumes. Any non-compatible Amiibo will simply unlock a costume of Yoshi with the Amiibo logo on his.

If you tap almost any amiibo in Yoshi's Crafted World, you'll receive a costume you can use in-game to dress up Yoshi. These costumes work the same way as the ones you get from the gachapons in the game, but will be Super Rare and provide five shields against damage before they break. The costumes you receive from tapping amiibo cannot be obtained in any other way within the game.

How do I use amiibo?

You can tap amiibo from the main overworld by opening the menu with +, then selecting the 'amiibo' option. You'll then be prompted to tap any amiibo you want to use. You can tap as many as you want, though you'll only be able to obtain each unique costume once.

What amiibo give unique costumes in Yoshi's Crafted World?

Can I still use other amiibo?

If you have any amiibo not listed above, you can tap one of them once to receive an amiibo box costume. There is no reason to tap every one of your other amiibo if you've already done it once, as you can only obtain the amiibo box costume one time.
