Count Fang is the boss of World 2 in the game Yoshi's New Island. His name is a portmanteau of "Fang," which the boss is based on, and "Count Dracula," the titular villain of the novel Dracula. Count Fang originated as a normal Fang, only to be altered by Kamek's hammer during the events of the game. He grew to gigantic proportions, and also appeared in the E3 2013 demo. He attacks by summoning four Slave Basa to his aid which try to attack Yoshi. However, they leave soon after, and Yoshi then has to hit him with an egg to damage him. Count Fang turns red and starts rolling around on the ground, but soon returns to his normal form. The player has to hit him two more times to defeat him.
