Editing Head Shake

[[File:HeadShake.png|thumb|200px|Yoshi performing a '''Head Shake'''.]]
'''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 [[spin]]ning 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#Wii Remote|Wii Remote]] or [[Wii#Nunchuk|Nunchuk]], Yoshi will shake his head, which can be used to break [[Item Crystal]]s, activate objects, and perform other functions, just like the spin move. However, the Head Shake does not work on objects behind Yoshi, unlike the spin. After using Head Shake, Yoshi will have to wait for a moment before he can Head Shake again.

The Head Shake can be used to gain height in midair. This only works if Yoshi jumps up but does not [[Flutter Jump]]. If Yoshi Flutter Jumps, he cannot gain any height if he uses the Head Shake afterwards. Also, if Yoshi uses Head Shake, he will then not be able to Flutter Jump.

In the earlier ''[[Mario Party (series)|Mario Party]]'' games, Yoshi uses a Head Shake instead of a [[punch]].

-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.

-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).
