The '''Metamato''' is a magical tomato made of yarn which can be seen in the opening [[cutscene]] of ''[[Kirby's Epic Yarn]]'' and its remake: ''[[Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn]]''. There only appears to be one of them, and it originally belonged to [[Yin-Yarn]] the sorcerer. In the opening cutscene of the game, Kirby encounters the Metamato sitting on top of a bush while strolling through [[Dream Land]]. Confusing it as a [[Maxim Tomato]], Kirby begins to [[inhale]], intent on eating it. As it turns out, Yin-Yarn was holding onto the Metamato the whole time. Kirby pulls the yarn fruit right off of Yin-Yarn's hat and eats it, prompting the upset sorcerer to immediately banish him to [[Patch Land]].

Confusing it as a [[Maxim Tomato]], Kirby begins to [[inhale]], intent on eating it. As it turns out, Yin-Yarn was holding onto the Metamato the whole time, and presumably had been using it as bait for Kirby, but underestimated the pink puffball's powerful inhale. Kirby pulls the yarn fruit right off of Yin-Yarn's hat and eats it, prompting the upset sorcerer to immediately banish him to [[Patch Land]].


As it turns out, the Metamato was imbued with magical powers, as eating it gave Kirby the power to shapeshift his new yarn body while in Patch Land. This allows him to take on a number of [[Transformation (Kirby's Epic Yarn)|Transformation]]s which are needed to solve puzzles and fight enemies in the game, as Kirby can not inhale while in yarn form.

This allows him to take on a number of [[Yarn Transformation]]s which are needed to solve puzzles and fight enemies in the game, as Kirby can not inhale while in yarn form. It is unclear why the Metamato gave him these powers, or why Yin-Yarn thought it would be a good idea to use such a powerful item as bait in the first place.
 
According to Yin-Yarn's Japanese [[Patch Plaza]] description, he originally planned to use the power of the Metamato to take over the world.<ref>'''"A pair of knitting needle brothers,<br>who love to sing and dance. They tried to<br>take over the world with the power of the Metamato."''' - translated quote from Yin-Yarn's Japanese [[Patch Plaza]] description <br> (original Japanese: '''"うたとおどりが だいすきな あみぼうの<br>きょうだい メタモルトマトのちからで<br>せかいを せいふくしようとしていた"''')</ref>
