| “ | Apparently, that strange Metamato gave Kirby the power to seamlessly transform into a car and...who knows what else? | ” | — Kirby's Epic Yarn opening story |
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.
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 Transformations which are needed to solve puzzles and fight enemies in the game, as Kirby can not inhale while in yarn form.
According to Yin-Yarn's Japanese Patch Plaza description, he originally planned to use the power of the Metamato to take over the world.[1]
