==History==
===''Super Mario'' series===
====''Super Mario World====
In ''[[Super Mario World]]'', any shell eaten by a Blue Yoshi will give him the ability to fly , while the regular abilities granted by Yellow and Red shells are also granted.

====''Super Mario 64 DS''====
In ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', the third player in VS. Mode controls a Blue Yoshi. Here Blue Yoshis don't have any unique ability, all Yoshis have the same abilities.

====''New Super Mario Bros. Wii====
A Blue Yoshi was set to appear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', but it was scrapped and replaced by a [[Light Blue Yoshi]].

===''Yoshi'' series===
====''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island====
In ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'', a Blue Yoshi is playable on the [[Castle]] of every world, except for level 6-8, [[King Bowser's Castle]]; in which a [[Green Yoshi]] takes its place. This makes Blue Yoshis the least-used of the Yoshis.

===''Super Smash Bros.'' series===
Blue Yoshis also appear in the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]].  Although not playable in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'', a Blue Yoshi appears with the Yoshi team in 1-Player Mode. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', Blue Yoshis appear as a recolor for the regular [[Yoshi]]. A Blue Yoshi also represents the blue team in team battles.  A Blue Yoshi also appears as a [[Sticker|sticker]] in the third installment of the series.

===''Paper Mario'' series===
Blue Yoshis are also present (and live) in the [[Yoshi's Village]] on [[Lavalava Island]], featured in [[Paper Mario|the first game of the series]].

In [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door|the sequel]], one of the [[Yoshi (Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door)|Yoshi Kid]]'s colors is blue. The Blue Yoshi Kill will be obtained if the amount of time that passes between the point where its egg joins Mario's party atop the Hot Dog Stand to when Mario eventually meets the newborn dinosaur after running from the Armored Harriers is between 9 and 11 minutes.

===''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 into is blue.

===''Mario Super Sluggers===
In ''[[Mario Super Sluggers]]'', Blue Yoshi makes its baseball debut as a color variant for Yoshi. In Challenge Mode, a Blue Yoshi can be found in [[Yoshi Park]]. It gives the player several questions in order to figure out the combination for the gate. Afterwards correctly answering the questions, it will join Mario on his quest. The Blue Yoshi has the weakest batting abilities among all Yoshis, but that is compensated by its pitching, where it ranks first among the Yoshis (being tied with the team captain [[Yoshi]]).

===''Mario Sports Mix===
A Blue Yoshi also appears in ''[[Mario Sports Mix]]'' as a non-playable character. It appears in the [[Dodgeball]] game, where it assists the blue team on the sidelines. Its red team counterpart is a [[Red Yoshi]].

===''Mario Tennis Open''===
{{upcoming|game}}
Blue Yoshi will appear in ''[[Mario Tennis Open]]'' as an downloadable QR code character.<ref>http://www.nintendo.co.jp/3ds/agaj/qr/color.html</ref> [[File:BlueYoshiTennisIcon.png|thumb|right|Blue Yoshi's icon in ''Mario Tennis Open''.]]

==Physical Appearance== 
In ''Super Mario World'', Blue Yoshis had dark blue skin, orange gloves, brown shoes and a brown saddle. For [[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island|the sequel]], Blue Yoshis' look remained almost the same, but the shoes were recolored purple while the saddle was recolored red. The shoes' color was changed again for the [[Game Boy Advance]] port, this time to pink.

From ''[[Yoshi's Story]]'' and on, Blue Yoshis have appeared with magenta shoes and a red saddle. In ''Yoshi's Island'''s sequel, ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]'', and ''[[Yoshi Touch & Go]]'', the skin tone for Blue Yoshis was darkened.

*In the SNES version of ''Yoshi's Island'', there's a map error that displays [[King Bowser's Castle]]'s Yoshi as Blue. This only happens when the level is played for the first time, and resets to green upon resetting the Yoshi's locations.
