In addition to being the first installment of the [[mariowiki:Yoshi's Island (series)|''Yoshi's Island'' sub-series]], ''Super Mario World 2'' is the first installment in the ''Mario'' series' in-universe timeline: it details {{s|mariowiki|Baby Luigi}} being captured by [[Kamek]] and his {{s|mariowiki|Toadie}}s while being delivered by a {{s|mariowiki|stork}}, while a group of Yoshis discover the missing {{s|mariowiki|Baby Mario}} and work to rejoin him with his twin brother. After being rescued by the Yoshis, the stork resumes its journey to deliver the newly reunited baby Mario Bros. to their parents.

This same plotline would be retold in the endless runner game, ''{{s|mariowiki|Yoshi Touch & Go}}''.


The is followed by the next event in the ''Yoshi'' canon, ''{{s|mariowiki|Yoshi's New Island}}'', where upon arriving at its supposed destination, the stork discovers that the family living there were not expecting children. This mishap results in the stork once again being attacked by Kamek and his Toadies, who recapture Baby Luigi while Baby Mario falls to the floating {{s|mariowiki|Egg Island}}, which is home to another group of Yoshis. Much like their counterparts on Yoshi's Island, this group of Yoshis bands together to reunite the baby Mario Bros. and stop Baby Bowser from turning Egg Island into his own personal resort - with adult [[Bowser]] travelling back in time to serve as a secret final boss for players who don't use the Flutter Wings. Should the player beat him, it will also be revealed that adult Mario has travelled back in time under the guise of the helpful Mr. Pipe.
