| The '''Head Shake''' is an ability in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. Its name comes from a term referring to a gesture used to indicate denial, disbelief, or rejection. It is effectively [[Yoshi]]'s version of [[Mario]]'s (or [[Luigi]]'s) [[spin]], in that it is used instead whenever Yoshi is being ridden, and has many of the same effects—it breaks [[Crystal (Super Mario Galaxy)|crystal]]s, activates objects, flips [[Red-Blue Panel]]s, and reflects physical projectiles. However, using it to gain height in midair prevents Yoshi from [[Flutter Jump|flutter-jump]]ing, and using a Flutter Jump stops the move from gaining height, meaning the two techniques cannot be combined for large [[jump]]s. The Head Shake does not hit behind Yoshi, unlike Mario's spin, which hits on all sides.
| | '''Head Shake''' is an ability in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', and it can only be used by [[Yoshi]]. The ability is very similar to [[Mario]]'s [[spinning]] move, but it can only be used when Mario or [[Luigi]] rides on Yoshi, therefore replacing Mario's spin move. When the player shakes the [[Wii Remote]], Yoshi will shake his head, which can be used to break [[Item Crystal]]s, activate objects, and other functions, just like the spin move. However, also likewise to the spin move, Yoshi will have to wait for a moment before he can Head Shake again. |

| Yoshi using his head as a weapon is a mainstay of previous games; he headbutts enemies in the earlier ''[[Mario Party (series)|Mario Party]]'' games instead of [[punch]]ing, and several of his attacks in the ''[[Super Smash Bros. (series)|Super Smash Bros.]]'' series are headbutts (with many of them rendering his head temporarily intangible). | | Unlike the Spin Jump, if Yoshi uses the Head Shake ability in mid-air, it will not make Mario/Luigi and Yoshi get a boost in their jump, as the [[Flutter Jump]] does instead. |
