Here we are with the end of World 2!
World 2-5
This stage takes place in a giant whirlpool.
To get the Heart Star for this stage, it's completely obvious that you'll have to beat the stage with Pitch.
There is a theme with each of the stages concerning the Heart Stars:
Stage 1: Flowers
Stage 2: Partner and/or ability combination
Stage 3: Minigame
Stage 4: Find someone, bring them to the end
Stage 5: Bring a certain animal friend to the end
Stage 6: Shapes
For the second section, you can stand there and use the Needle ability to plow through the enemies, which also include small orcas (which we've probably seen in other stages).
The next section is a room with Kine. You'll need him to get Pitch, so pick him up and enter the next section. Enter the door to the right. In this cave, you'll come across a room that is blocked by three sets of ability blocks: two for Fire, one for Stone and one for Spark. There is a flame dragon in the door to the right of the ladder that takes you to this route. Swallow it to get fire and take down the first set. For Stone, you'll have to go all the way up the ladder, ditch Kine to go through the small hole, and swallow the Rocky that falls off the Star Block. Go back and destroy the second set of blocks, then get Kine. You should be able to get to the rest of the level with Kine.
The fourth section is another whirlpool room. It's pretty hard to swim to where you want to go, and the last go around has Gordos in it. Ouch! If you have Kine, you can swim to the left on the second whirlpool and enter a door. Pitch is inside. Get him.
The fifth section has you swimming against the current on the way up to the door, and has you doing that in order to...avoid more Gordos.
The final section is pretty easy.
World 2-6
The first, easy section is very picturesque and has one of the best simple Super NES backgrounds that I've ever seen. It's also got just a few crabs.
The second section lets you choose between Nago, Pitch and Rick. Since you're already here, you could probably cheat and get Pitch here to get to the end with him in World 2-5...but guess what? It's doesn't work. So you'll have to do the ability block puzzle in 2-5 after all.
The third section has a lot of bridges and a variety of enemies. If you knock the brooms off of the witches, the witches tumble to the floor.
The requirement isn't in the fourth section, so don't worry about that. For the green slime orbs, choose the top, the bottom, and the upper center for each respective choice between the two, the three and the four green slime orbs.
In the fifth section, destroy the Star Blocks to get rid of the rotating iron ball rods. You'll see a path that leads down to three doors. The door in the center leads to a yellow, jagged diamond-shaped person you're trying to help. In the two doors to the side, get rid of the Star Blocks so that they look like the blocks above the door in the center of the room. When you do that, return to the center room. The jagged-diamond guy will be smiling, indicating you've completed the requirement for the Heart Star.
Now that we have the Heart Star, all that's left is the final section, where you make your way up and avoid all the explosive nuts to reach the exit.
World 2 Boss: Acro
Acro will leap toward you and and try to tackle the wall. Jump over his tackle attack and spit the rock that comes out of the wall back at Acro. After he takes enough damage, you'll fight him underwater. Use your air attack to send the objects Acro spits out back at him. If he hits a wall, rocks will drop from the top of the screen, and you can use those against Acro as well.
It takes a little longer than it should, as this sometimes sends the objects back at an angle, but it's still doable and a little safer than using an ability.
