==Yoshi in Yoshi's Island and Yoshi's Island DS==

Is there sufficient proof that the green Yoshi in YI and YI:DS is The Yoshi? The wiki page supports the notion that the ending to YI:DS actually takes place before the original YI game, but that seems illogical to me, and I doubt it was the intention of the designers for one star child to be so much older than the rest (Especially since Kamek is clearly targeting babies and seems to expect all of the star children to be babies). I think it's more likely that the ending to YI:DS was meant to indicate that The Yoshi is a completely different character from the Yoshis that saved Mario, which explains why Yoshi does not recognize Mario when he is found in SMW. [[User:Buddy Christ|Buddy Christ]] ([[User talk:Buddy Christ|talk]])

== Yoshi in Yoshi Story ==

I wonder if it is possible that the six Yoshis in Yoshi's Story were trapped in eggs by Baby Bowser when he transformed the island, the same way he traps them in Super Mario World. This would explain why they are newborns at the beginning of the game, and yet already know what they need to do. - Buddy

Not likely, Buddy, if the Yoshi hatchlings from Yoshi's Story were "trapped," then how did they hatch? It's more logical they escaped Baby Bowser by fate (the eggs were located "at a remote edge of the island" [Yoshi's Story Instruction Booklet]). Yoshis are an advanced species and are smart. The Yoshi hatchlings probably figured things out for themselves, plus their instincts knew that things were a little "topsy-turvy" with the abduction of the Super Happy Tree. The little Yoshis headed on an adventure by following their instincts (or in this case "gut") by eating fruit that lead them to defeat Baby Bowser and reclaim the Supper Happy Tree. -DarkBlueYoshi

And plus, that my friend is opinionated. It does not deserve to be on the article because <s>that sentence phails</s> we do not want to give out false info {{User:Super-Yoshi/sig}}

== Yoshi in Mario Sunshine==

Was it actually THE Yoshi in super Mario Sunshine? I thought they were different Yoshi's.

:The Yoshi is referred to as "Yoshi" in the instruction manual and player's guide. In the game, Yoshi is green until he eats a fruit, then changes back to green when he either runs out of juice or hits the water. Also, all official artwork shows Mario riding the green Yoshi. -- [[User: Son of Suns|Son of Suns]]

ALL Yoshis are just called "Yoshi" and besides, how can yoshi go from egg to no egg?
:Who came from? The Yoshi or the egg?

:Not really, when they aren't ''the'' Yoshi, they usually say ''a'' Yoshi, instead of just Yoshi. Although I do agree that they probably are generic Yoshis. Edit: forgot to sign. '''[[User:Myles|<font color="#00CC00">Myles</font>]] [[Image:LuigipartyDS.png|30px]]'''

== THE Yoshi ==
It is not confrimed if the Yoshi in Super Mario World 1 and 2 is really THE Yoshi. It could just be the green specie. And in Partners in Time it's not confirmed if that's the Yoshi...or is it? <span style="font-family:verdana; color:#red;"><font size="5">'''[[User:Paper Jorge|P]]'''[[User talk:Paper Jorge|aper]] '''[[User:Paper Jorge/sig|Jorge]]'''</font></span>

:The Yoshi from Super Mario World is the same Yoshi that is a selectable character in the kart, sports, and party series. In the Mario Party 2 instruction manual, it states that Yoshi is the same Yoshi that saved Mario and Luigi when they were babies. This means that the Yoshi from SMW 2 is the same Yoshi we know and love. Partners in Time is more sketchy. Official artwork depicts the Yoshi with Yoob, and Yoshi certainly acts as he does in other series. That is why I note that the PoT Yoshi is "apparently" ''the'' Yoshi, but could be a different one as in Yoshi's Story. -- [[User: Son of Suns|Son of Suns]]

It is THE Yoshi, he thinks he remembers Baby Mario! [[User:Maxlover2]]

THE Yoshi is born at the end of Yoshi's Island DS. Some random green Yoshi can't be a Star Child. THE Yoshi is also the green one from Yoshi's Story, methinks. The Yoshis from Yoshi's Island and Yoshi's Island DS are the parents of the Yoshis in Yoshi's Story. Just theories. If the tide of this debate goes to Yoshi being the green Yoshi born at the end of Yoshi's Island DS, we should probably deleted the Yoshi's Island and Yoshi's Island DS section of the biography.

== Super Mario Sunshine ==

I have to question the [[Yoshi#Bravery on Isle Delfino|Bravery on Isle Delfino]] section for accuracy. In the <s>official</s> (hmm...) art, Yoshi is green. Yet, in reality, Yoshi only turns green when he is just about out of juice. Otherwise, depending on the fruit he swallows last, he is orange, pink or purple. I think THE Yoshi does not appear in SMSS, but instead an Isle Delfino species. Comments? {{User:Wayoshi/sig}} 21:05, 13 December 2006 (EST)
:Now looking at the top of the page, I still am ''not'' convinced. We don't know what color the Yoshi is inside the egg at first, and honestly, SoS, sometimes you take the guides and manuals a bit too seriously. Also, keep in mind that these Yoshis can't go in deep water, signifying a different species. {{User:Wayoshi/sig}}

The main Yoshi can swim in water (MP and YI series) while the ones on Isle Delfino dissapate when contacting water. A major factor to consider when classifiying it as a Yoshi. Yet there is info contradicting it. Shadow Mario does appear with ONE Yoshi Egg and why is it that when that one yoshi egg is rescued, all Yoshi eggs are accesable. Then again after the Turbo Nozzle is found, all Turbo Nozzles appear. Confusing indeed. Im leaning towards species though.{{User:Knife/sig}}

Mabey they disapate because they can't swim and hold a plump plumber on there back, or they arn't real Yoshi's just Delfino clones {{User:WarioLoaf/sig}}

And I don't think any Yoshi for that matter can spray Yoshi Juice. I'm more and more conviced that this a sub-species of Isle Delfino. And hold on. Egg color doesnt neccesarily mean that its a Green Yoshi. (Ex:Yoshi Kid){{User:Knife/sig}}

I'm using the most canonical sources available, mainly the Player's Guide and the Instruction Manual. They refer to Yoshi as Yoshi, and use images of a green Yoshi. Yoshi disappearing in water and reappearing in an egg is similar to Super Mario World. In SMW, Yoshi could fall off a cliff or lava, but if you return to where you can find an egg, Yoshi will reappear without a scratch on him. The same applies to Isle Delfino. Note that Yoshi does turn green after he hits the water, meaning the juice changed his color. Maybe the water affects Yoshi because of the juice in his body. Note also that no two Yoshis appear together, meaning we can't say that it isn't one Yoshi reforming in an egg just like in SMW. Plus, Yoshi has changed his color before when coming into contact with an item (SMW again). The fruit is changing his color and possibly his tolerance to water. If Nintendo wanted us to know that there were multiple Yoshis, they could have made a piece of art depiciting a rainbow of Yoshis as they have done in every Yoshi game. Also, in SMW 2: YI, Yoshi could not swim in water, he could float at the surface, showing that Yoshi has different reactions to water in different games. Other traits of Yoshi have also changed. For example, in SMW, Yoshi could destroy a Koopa Troopa outright with one stomp, while in SMW 2: YI, Yoshi could only knock the Koopa Troopa out of its shell. Does that mean they are a different sub-species of Yoshi, the strong stompers and the weak stompers? Of course not. The game mechanics of each game is different. Nintendo wanted to provide a challenge by making Yoshi dissolve in water. Several challenges force Mario to ride Yoshi across platforms surrounded by water to reach an island with yellow goop. There would be no challenge if Yoshi could just swim to the island. Yoshi's tolerance to water changes based on the play mechanics of the game. The juice meter also limits the amount of time Mario can ride the powerful Yoshi. Regardless, official sources say Yoshi, not Yoshis or a Yoshi, so I'm sticking to Yoshi. Guides and manuals are important to understanding Mario games as they provide background information usually not presented in the game itself (unless, of course, the game is an RPG). -- [[User: Son of Suns|Son of Suns]]

I have a source that makes almost eveything you just said irrelevant. '''The Great Sunflower says that the Snooze-A-Koopas have scared all the Yoshi away'''. Replay Episode 4 in Pinna Park and you'll see.{{User:Knife/sig}}

Get an exact quote so we can analyze it. In-game material is more canonical than manuals or guides. If the quote confirms more than one Yoshi, we can remove the SMS section of the article. This may make sense, as after the Snooze-A-Koopas are defeated, the Yoshis reappear on Isle Delfino. Please get an exact quote though, as I do not have the game in my possession currently. -- [[User: Son of Suns|Son of Suns]]

The wilted Great Sunflower says: ''Because of these fake eggs, the Yoshis of this island have fled...''

Also note that she spells plural Yoshi as Yoshis not Yoshies.{{User:Knife/sig}}

Brrrr! Video game analyzation is a scary business. [[User:3dejong|3]][[User talk:3dejong|D]]

I can't remember the exact quote, but I have the game and after playing the game for a while, you will see the same Toad you normally see by the lighthouse. He will tell you that lot's of Yoshis used to live in Isle Delfino, but he wonders why they aren't there anymore.--[[User:PeteyPiranhaLover|PeteyPiranhaLover]] 18:32, 15 December 2006 (EST)

Thanks for all the help. I'm glad we were able to check facts with canonical sources to make a more accurate article. When I play a Mario game, I try to keep a notebook nearby, just in case some random quote or piece of information will come in handy someday. The Sunflower quote was very helpful. I've removed all info about SMS in this article. We should also remember that the canonical spelling of multiple Yoshis is, in fact, Yoshis, not Yoshies. -- [[User: Son of Suns|Son of Suns]]

Is there going to be an article about the Isle Delfino sub-species?{{User:Knife/sig}}

:No. A lot of creatures were changed in Super Mario Sunshine, like the Bob-ombs, but they are still the same creatures. A section about the Yoshis on Isle Delfino could be added to the Yoshi (species) page. -- [[User: Son of Suns|Son of Suns]]

{{User:Knife/sig}}

I think that the Yoshi on Isle Delfino is not THE Yoshi. If Yoshi were to go to Isle Delfino, he'd probably go with Mario and the gang. The reason he changes color out of nowhere? The fruit grown on Isle Delfino has a chemical reaction with Yoshis' skin. The reason he dissolves in water, dissolves when too hungry, and resides in an egg? The Yoshi on Isle Delfino is probably a '''very''' subspecies.

==Super Mario World==
Are you sure that Yoshi was rideable? It could just be a regular Green Yoshi. I do know that the THE Yoshi does appear though.{{User:Knife/sig}}

:Yes. Yoshi pops out of an egg, states his name, and Mario hitches a ride. -- [[User: Son of Suns|Son of Suns]]

Wat the? How can Yoshi be older than Mario? I thought this was the same Yoshi in SMW? And there are a bunch of Yoshi eggs, doesn't neccesarily mean its THE Yoshi's egg.{{User:Knife/sig}}

:Why can't Yoshi be older than Mario? The Yoshi in SMW is the same Yoshi as the one in SMW 2: YI. There are a bunch of Yoshi eggs, but if you hit them while Mario is riding Yoshi, a 1-UP Mushroom appears, not another Yoshi. -- [[User: Son of Suns|Son of Suns]]

No, I meant it the other way around :-> But how are there a bunch of Yoshi eggs around?{{User:Knife/sig}}

Yoshi eggs hold items. A few special Yoshi Eggs hold the Blue Yoshi, Yellow Yoshi, and Red Yoshi. Also, seven Yoshi babies are trapped in seven eggs held by the Koopalings. Yoshi can emerge from any egg in the field that would otherwise turn into a 1-Up. It's simple play mechanics. It's like when Mario falls in lava, but then reemerges at the start of the level. When a Yoshi egg appears, and Mario is not riding Yoshi, Yoshi appears. The instruction manual states that Bowser and his cohorts trapped Yoshi in an egg, so presumably whenever Yoshi runs away he is resealed in an egg by the Koopas. -- [[User: Son of Suns|Son of Suns]]

all the red mushroom are in Wario Blocks. {{User:Maxlover2/sig| aren't they?}}

No. But acctually, there all in blocks, and yoshi cant destroy blocks... [[User:Isyou|Isyou]] 20:30, 9 March 2007 (EST)

They are also in yellow blocks, I think. I've done it. {{User:3dejong/sig|SUPER YOSHI BROS.!}}

In Tall Tall Mountain it is possible by having Yoshi ground pound the big stake all the way down. {{User:Wayoshi/sig}} 20:36, 9 March 2007 (EST)

There is another complex method. Use a cap to transform and break a block containing a Mushroom. After breaking it lose, immediately throw off the cap by taking damage and as Yoshi, collect the roaming mushroom.

Besides all that, I think this article should be deleted. We don't have an article on Metal Waluigi, Metal Peach, etc., do we? The name is also conjecture. All functions of Mushrooms should be listed under the article and the article of the character they effect.

Okay, what makes Yoshi an enemy? Someone putted on a category entry in the article... {{User:RAP/sig}}
:In [[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]], [[Boshi]] is a purple, punkish Yoshi on [[Yo'ster Island]] that serves as a NPC rival. Technically, this makes him an enemy. In the same game, an actual enemy encountered in battle by the name of [[Bahamutt]] strongly resembles a more dragon-like Yoshi, which could be a subspecies or cousin. Both therefore qualify Yoshis as enemies, though I'm sure there's better candidates out there I've overlooked. [[User:Redstar|Redstar]] 03:12, 26 November 2009 (EST)

== FA dispute ==

:<s>Lead image is both large and blurry.</s>

:<s>"Destructive conquerer" is a silly term and should be removed.</s>
:<s>"Yoshi even" - it makes it seem like the article is praising him, not detailing his exploits.</s>
:<s>"Thus changing the course of history" - this implies that Yoshi altered the course of history, when him saving Baby Mario and Baby Luigi was always a part of the series' history.</s>

There's also the possibility that Kamek shows Baby Bowser the future. [[User:Angry Sun|Angry Sun]] 11:13, 20 May 2007 (EDT)

Then why would Baby Bowser have no idea what Yoshi is when they meet in YI? I find it hard to believe he'd go from calling Yoshi "Mario's pet" to "some kind of green donkey"- in the former, he obviously knows what a Yoshi is, whereas in the latter, he clearly has no clue. {{User:Dinosaur bob/sig}} 08:25, 22 May 2007 (EDT)

==Not the Yoshi==
In SSBB, the Yoshi that appears in the game seems to be the Yoshi as a race, and not as the actual main Yoshi. This is supported by it's trophy descriptions as well as the fact he attacks Mario as if he had never met him before. There is really no evidence to support that it is Yoshi other than playability. Not to mention it's colors are changeable to that of the Yoshis playable in Yoshi story. Am I missing something here? - [[User:ForeverDaisy09|ForeverDaisy09]]

Yes, you're missing the fact that the characters in Super Smash Bros. are not the actual characters, but rather, Trophy replicas based on the original characters. The replicas sole meaning of existance is to fight. And, that was a bad assumption, anyway. From your point of view, Mario is a species (lol, BJAODN), because he fights Peach and Luigi as if he has never met them before, and because of all his color changes. It's the character (er... Trophy replica), not the species. ;) {{User:Pokemon DP/sig}}

I have noticed that the trivia section for this article is overly long.  One of the requirements for being a FA is that there should be no improvement tags.

Does anyone else think that is a good idea?  {{User:White Knight/sig}}

[http://www.yoshiart.com/view.php?image=yoshis-story-yoshi.png]  To back up my claim about the artwork I moved to the gallery, you'll notice it had marks around it indicating that it previously had a background around it - specifically as though it came from the beach volleyball artwork from that game where Yoshi was in that exact pose. {{User:Stumpers/sig}} 10:26, 18 September 2008 (EDT)

== Playable Yoshis ==

I've noticed something about the Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island level articles. No matter what level they're about, the article refers to the playable Yoshi as "Yoshi". But the playable Yoshis in the game aren't all the character Yoshi. The green one in the first levels of each world is the character, but besides that, the playable Yoshi is pink, azure, yellow, purple, brown, red, and blue (in that order, too). I guess it's fine to just call these playable Yoshis "Yoshi", since it's the name of their species, but there shouldn't be a link to this article if you don't play as the green Yoshi. Uh... right? {{User:CrystalYoshi/sig}}

== Super Mario 64 DS ==

"To do this, Bowser intended to convert the denizens of the worlds accessed via the paintings in Peach's Castle into monsters. With these newfound forces, Bowser was then going to attack the castle, and, potentially, the entire Mushroom Kingdom."

Koopa shells are removable and act as a sort of clothing for the Koopa (sources: ''Super Mario World'', ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'', ''Super Mario 64'', ''Paper Mario'', ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''). Yoshi shells are not removable, as Yoshis are even born with them (sources: ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'', ''Yoshi's Story'', ''Yoshi's Island DS''); if they were saddles, they'd have to be equipped.

I have an objection to point out regarding the latest information added to Yoshi's "Trivia" section. It says...
*In [[Super Mario World]], when Mario signals Yoshi to stick his tongue out, '''he hits him as if cracking a whip''' (...)
This information is highly false, and I (like anyone) can prove it. I've got a specific screenshot from [[Super Mario World]] in which Mario signals Yoshi to stick its tongue out while the player presses the ↑ (Up) button (so Yoshi will stick its tongue higher than the usual): http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_HuVp506Cl2w/S9swSdT1z4I/AAAAAAAAF-Q/tX76gLCikY8/s400/SMW_MarioPunch.PNG That screenshot can be seen by anyone who pays some extra attention to the game's frame rate.

::::I still don't understand the application of this particular rule and despite you mentioning this when I bring it up, I'm afraid it makes little sense to me, sorry. As someone who works on other NIWA wikis, none of the other wikis have a problem distinguishing between different media. The Zelda cartoon =/= the Zelda games, for instance. I think you misunderstand me whenever I say "canon", all I mean is that "game canon" is separate, in my opinion, from the Super Mario Bros. movie, for example, meaning that it's not "canon" to the games to suggest that Goombas are de-evolved Toads, while it IS "canon" to suggest that they're traitors to the Mushroom Kingdom (which the manual to the original game states). To argue that both statements are of equal prominence makes little sense to me. I don't really think this a particularly disagreeable position to take, and I'm not trying to argue that the games are massively consistent (although they do largely follow some basic rules, Mario doesn't suddenly lose his Italian accent for example) or that it's worth anyone's time to make a "timeline" like this wiki used to attempt to do. I'm not saying that the cartoons and movies should not be covered by this wiki, but giving spin-off media as much prominence as the games to the point where contradictory statements are given equal merit is going too far, in my honest opinion, and is actually a relic of when this wiki attempted to merge everything into one hideous, monster timeline.

Well to be a pedant, the guide was made for NOA's media partners to describe how the characters are supposed to be portrayed, and some of the other stuff in it is reflected in western medias from the period (for ex: Wario being a childhood friend of Mario is used in a NP comic, and Toad's "Toadie" nickname is occassionally used in the Valiant comics).

But yeah, it's fine as a footnote. The name has been never used in an actual media, only in a behind-the-scenes documents, and it's very obvious no future mario media is going to use it. You can pull the "warble warble there is no canon" card if you want, but putting it as the character's official name is equivalent to saying [[Blip|Donkey Kong being a Japanese genetic experiment]] is an equally valid origin fo the character. --[[User:Glowsquid|Glowsquid]] ([[User talk:Glowsquid|talk]]) 15:00, 10 July 2015 (EDT)

:Actually, the Wario comic was also released in Japan I believe (I'm pretty sure the Zelda one was too), much like the Zelda and Metroid comics at the same time, or, at the very least they were drawn by a Japanese artist with some involvement from NoJ, meaning that while these aren't considered "canon" (meaning they contradict the games), elements of them have become canon, such as Samus's backstory and Wario being a childhood friend of Mario. I don't think the Wario example is a predominantly NoA invention, it's even mentioned in his trophy in Smash, and I'm fairly sure it was mentioned in other media as well so that's definitely something that is part of his "origin" story, such as it is.
:So yeah, I'm not saying everything in that guide is just pulled out of nowhere, but a lot of it seems to have been... ahem, "embellished", for lack of a better word.

:I don't think this page has edit restrictions on it, anyway, I corrected all the links, including the ones to the London 2012 Olympic Games and the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games.--[[User:Mister Wu|Mister Wu]] ([[User talk:Mister Wu|talk]]) 22:31, 2 July 2016 (EDT)
