Editing Black Yoshi

[[Image:Blackyoshi1.png|right|frame|A '''Black Yoshi'''.]]'''Black Yoshi''' is a [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] that first appears in ''[[Yoshi's Story]]''. He can first be found in World 2 secret places. Along with [[White Yoshi]] he has certain abilities that give him advantages over the other Yoshis.

==History==
===[[Yoshi (series)|''Yoshi'' series]]===
====''Yoshi's Story''====

They can be found in large, hidden eggs on pages 2-1 or 2-4. Black [[Yoshis]] and [[White Yoshi]]s 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 his eggs explode in gigantic explosions, destroying more than one enemy at a time. However Black Yoshi has a very low voice, in fact the lowest of all the Yoshis in the game. If the player loses Black Yoshi, the [[White Shy Guy]] can not retrieve him.

====''Yoshi's Island DS''====
Black Yoshis reappear in ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]'', playable in the Secret levels of each world. Unlike in ''Yoshi's Story'', these Black Yoshis do not have any special powers.

===''Mario Power Tennis''===
In ''[[Mario Power Tennis (Nintendo GameCube)|Mario Power Tennis]]'', [[Yoshi]] can change colors every time he performs a [[Rolling Egg Return]], provided the player has completed the [[Flower Cup]] with any character. One of the colors that Yoshi can turn is black.

===''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''===

In ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', in chapter three, black is one of the colors the player's [[Yoshi kid]] can come out as.

===''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time''===
In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'', Black Yoshi appeared once, during the battle with [[Sunnycide]]. (This Black Yoshi was not present in the Japanese version of the game, but a [[Yellow Yoshi]] taking his place.<ref>[http://themushroomkingdom.net/mlpit_j2e.shtml The Mushroom Kingdom] (Accessed on 2-14-09)</ref> Because the European release was later than the Japanese, it happens there as well.) Like the other Yoshis, he can be freed from his egg, where he'll run to push a rock. He is the second to hatch when opening the [[Yoob]] egg.

===Physical Appearance===
In ''[[Yoshi's Story]]'', Black Yoshi debuts with black skin and white shoes with a red saddle. However, in its limited appearance in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'', the shoes were gray instead of white.
