The '''Green Yoshis''' are the most common colour variant of the [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] species. [[Yoshi]] is a Green Yoshi. 

==History==
===''Super Mario'' series===
====''Super Mario World====
Yoshis debuted in ''[[Super Mario World]]'', and while [[Yellow Yoshi|yellow]], [[Red Yoshi|red]] and [[Blue Yoshi|blue]] individuals could be hatched from eggs in the [[Star World]], the Yoshis that [[Mario]] found in [[Dinosaur Land]] were all green in colour, including the main Yoshi character.

Green Yoshis receive different powers depending on which colour of [[Koopa Troopa|Koopa]] shell they are holding in their mouths:

*<span style="color:#008000;">Green Shell &ndash; Nothing</span>
*<span style="color:#FF0000;">Red Shell &ndash; Fire</span>
*<span style="color:#0000FF;">Blue Shell &ndash; Fly</span>
*<span style="color:#DAA520;">Yellow Shell &ndash; Heavy</span>
*Rainbow Shell &ndash; <span style="color:#0000FF;">Fly,</span> <span style="color:#DAA520;">Heavy,</span> <span style="color:#008000;">and</span> <span style="color:#FF0000;">Fire</span>

====''Super Mario Sunshine====
In ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', the Yoshis start out as green but change to a different color once they eat a [[Fruit]] upon hatching. They also turn green if they are about to die from not eating another Fruit for a long time, or when they drown in water. While green, Yoshis spit water instead of juice.

====''New Super Mario Bros. Wii====

Green Yoshis appear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''. They appear with [[Cyan Yoshi]]s, [[Yellow Yoshi]]s, and [[Pink Yoshi]]s.

====''Super Mario Galaxy 2====
The Green Yoshi that appears in most galaxies of ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' is a normal Yoshi without Power-Ups.

===''Yoshi'' series===
====''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island====
In ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'', one is playable on every World's first level, and [[King Bowser's Castle]] in World 6, although in all other worlds, [[Blue Yoshi]] is playable on the final level. Green Yoshi is also playable in every Secret and Extra level in the game. This Yoshi seems to be the character Yoshi.

====''Yoshi's Story====
A young Green Yoshi appeared as one of the playable protagonists in ''[[Yoshi's Story]]''. Its favorite fruit is [[Watermelon]].

====''Yoshi's Island DS''====
Green Yoshis also appear in ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]''. They help [[Baby Mario]] and the other babies rescue [[Baby Luigi]]. Green Yoshis appear in the first level of each world and in the final level of [[World 5 (Yoshi's Island DS)|World 5]]. In the final boss battle, a Green Yoshi carries Baby Mario.

===''Mario Power Tennis===
In ''[[Mario Power Tennis (Nintendo GameCube)|Mario Power Tennis]]'', Yoshi is playable. Although green is the default color, there is an option to switch colors. Once the player wins the [[Flower Cup]] in doubles mode with any character, Yoshi will randomly change his color whenever he performs a [[Rolling Egg Return]].

==Appearance== 
In ''Super Mario World'', Green Yoshi had green skin, but orange gloves, brown shoes and a brown saddle.

In ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'', Green Yoshi looked about the same as he did in ''Super Mario World'', but with orange shoes and a red saddle. He also doesn't wear his orange gloves, and instead he had bare green arms. In the [[Game Boy Advance]] port, Green Yoshi wore red shoes.

From ''[[Yoshi's Story]]'' to ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', Green Yoshi had red shoes and a red saddle. From ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', Green Yoshi has orange shoes and red saddle, with the exception of ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', where his shoes were brown again.
