'''Black Yoshis''' are [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] variants that first appear in ''[[Yoshi's Story]]''. They can first be found in secret areas of World 2. Along with [[White Yoshis]], they have certain abilities that give them advantages over the other Yoshis.

They can be found in large, hidden eggs on pages 2-1 or 2-4. Black Yoshis and White Yoshis are the only Yoshis in ''Yoshi's Story'' that enjoy all the fruit, even the red [[Pepper]]s. In addition, Black Yoshis can eat other things that the rest can't, such as [[Black Shy Guy]]s. Another special power he possess in ''Yoshi's Story'' is that whenever the [[Smile Meter]] is full, his eggs explode in gigantic explosions, destroying more than one enemy at a time. Additionally, whenever a Black Yoshi is a [[Super Happy Yoshi]], his mobility while using the [[Flutter Jump]] is increased drastically until the invincibility wears off.

Black Yoshi has the lowest voice of any Yoshi in the game. If the player loses Black Yoshi, the [[White Shy Guy]] cannot retrieve him.
