'''Yoshis''' (referred to as '''Yoshisaurs''' in the [[Super Mario World (television series)|''Super Mario World'' cartoon]], and alternatively pluralized as "'''Yoshies'''" in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'') are a sapient species of omnivorous [[dinosaur]]-like creatures that first appeared in ''[[Super Mario World]]''. They later starred in [[Yoshi (franchise)|their own series of games]]. The most well-known Yoshi is green, simply named [[Yoshi]], and an ally of [[Mario]], often aiding Mario or being a protagonist of his own adventures.

 

Yoshis are known for their long tongues, which they use to grab and eat [[fruit]]s or enemies. They can lay [[Yoshi's Egg|eggs]] on their own, sometimes as a result of [[swallow]]ing an enemy or eating enough food, and they can [[Egg Throw|throw said eggs]] as an attack. Other eggs hatch into items, and some eggs hatch into [[Baby Yoshi]]s. In some games, such as the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]], Yoshis can hide in eggs for defense (instead of using shields as with most fighters) and [[Egg Roll (move)|roll into eggs]] for an attack. Yoshis come in a variety of colors, such as red, blue, yellow, etc., although green is the most common color. Yoshis also mostly live on [[Yoshi's Island (location)|Yoshi's Island]]; however, they are a widespread species and can live on a number of other islands, such as [[Lavalava Island]] and [[Isle Delfino]], as well as the continental [[Mushroom Kingdom]] and the neighboring [[Beanbean Kingdom]].

[[File:SMW Art - Star World.png|thumb|left|Mario and three colors of Yoshis in Star World]]

In ''Super Mario World'', [[Bowser]] invades Dinosaur Land, and with his [[Koopalings]], trap a number of Yoshis in enchanted eggs, and steal seven unhatched Yoshi Eggs, who then have to be rescued by Mario and [[Luigi]]. This is also how the brothers meet Yoshi, whom they befriend very early in the game. Red, Blue, and Yellow Yoshis appear in [[Star World]], exclusively found as [[Baby Yoshi|Mini-Yoshi]]s, which can grow into adult Yoshis if they eat enough enemies or fruits or a [[power-up]]. However, Blue Yoshis can be obtained elsewhere if a player grabs [[Yoshi's Wings]] while riding any Yoshi in a level in the SNES version. Eating Koopa shells gives Yoshis different abilities: when eating a [[Red Shell]], Yoshis spit out three [[fireball]]s, when eating a [[Yellow Shell]], Yoshis can create [[sand cloud]]s each time they land on the ground, and when eating a [[Blue Shell]], Yoshis [[Winged Yoshi|grow wings]] which allow them to [[fly]]. When they hold any shell in their mouths, Red, Blue, and Yellow Yoshis always experience the abilities of Red, Blue and Yellow Shells respectively, in addition to that shell's specific ability if it is of a different color than the Yoshi. [[Shell (flashing)|Flashing Shell]]s grant all three abilities, while Green Shells yield no extra abilities, and can merely be spat out as a projectile. If a Yoshi holds a shell in its mouth for too long, it swallows it. Yoshis can also eat most enemies, as well as [[Fruit (Yoshi food)|berries]] that grow on bushes in certain areas; eating ten red berries causes a Yoshi to lay an egg that hatches into a [[Super Mushroom]] (or a [[Fire Flower]], [[Super Star]], or [[Cape Feather]], depending on the Yoshi's color in the [[Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2|GBA version]]), two pink berries will release a [[Yoshi Cloud]], and eating any number of green berries extends the [[Time Limit]]. If a Yoshi gets hurt by an enemy, it will drop Mario and run around in a panic until Mario jumps back on its shell.

[[File:SMS OrangeYoshi.png|thumb|Orange Yoshi is one of the Yoshi colors in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]''.]]

Yoshis are allies in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]''. They can ridden by Mario on his quest to recover the [[Shine Sprite]]s. To get a Yoshi, Mario must first find a [[Yoshi's Egg|Yoshi egg]] and give it the specific [[Fruit#Super Mario series|fruit]] it wants, the Yoshi will then hatch and Mario can ride on it. Yoshis typically require a random choice from [[papaya]]s, [[pineapple]]s, [[banana]]s, or [[coconut]]s to be hatched, but in Episode 3 of [[Sirena Beach]], [[Mysterious Hotel Delfino]], they always require pineapples, and in Episode 8 of [[Ricco Harbor]], [[Yoshi's Fruit Adventure]], they instead require [[durian]]s.

Depending on the fruit it has eaten, the Yoshi will be one of three colors: orange (if fed a papaya or a pineapple), pink (if fed bananas or a coconut), or purple (if fed a durian or [[pepper]]). Even after hatching, a Yoshi can still change colors by eating fruits of a different type. Each color will give a Yoshi the ability to spit [[juice]] of the same color (which replaces [[F.L.U.D.D.|FLUDD]]'s water tank) that affects enemies by turning them into various types of [[Yoshi Platform|platforms]]. The orange juice turns enemies into orange stationary platforms, the pink juice turns them into pink ascending platforms, and the purple juice turns them into purple forward-moving platforms. All three types of platforms disappear after a short amount of time. Unlike FLUDD, Yoshis can also destroy [[Orange Juice Generator]]s. Yoshis are unlocked by beating Episode 4 of [[Pinna Park]], [[The Wilted Sunflowers]], which features an enemy called a [[Snooza Koopa]], whose shell resembles a Yoshi egg. Afterwards, [[Shadow Mario]] will appear in [[Delfino Plaza]] carrying a Yoshi egg. Once Shadow Mario is defeated, Yoshis can appear in Delfino Plaza and most other levels in the game, though typically only in specific [[mission|episode]]s.

A Yoshi's juice meter depletes as the Yoshi sprays it, and will drain over time as well; the juice meter can be fully replenished by having the Yoshi eat any fruit, changing the Yoshi's color and the juice's properties depending on the fruit. If a Yoshi runs out of juice, it will turn green and begin to flicker for a few seconds before vanishing altogether; during this time, it can only spit water instead of juice. Landing in sufficiently deep water makes the Yoshi disappear immediately, as they cannot swim in this game.

[[File:SM64DS Vs Mode.png|thumb|left|Yoshi, Red Yoshi, and Blue Yoshi in the [[Castle Grounds]] in VS Mode in ''Super Mario 64 DS'']]

While Yoshi himself is playable in the main story, up to three additional Yoshis are playable in the [[Super Mario 64 DS#VS Mode|multiplayer mode]] of ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]''. The first player (the host) plays as Yoshi, the second player plays as a Red Yoshi, the third player plays as a Blue Yoshi, and the fourth player plays as a Yellow Yoshi. Each Yoshi has the same abilities and can pick up caps of [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], and [[Wario]] to use the abilities of those characters. It is also possible for a Yoshi to eat another Yoshi and spit them out, but the same cannot be done on a Yoshi with a cap. When a Yoshi gets wings, it grows wings out of its body, like in ''Super Mario World''. A Light Blue Yoshi appears in the minigame [[Tox Box Shuffle]], alongside Yoshi himself after enough rounds have passed.

Yoshi, along with Red, Yellow, and Blue Yoshis, appear in the [[Snowball Slam]] and [[Balloon Racing]] minigames in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' In both minigames, player one controls Red Yoshi, player two controls Yoshi, player three controls Yellow Yoshi, and player four controls Blue Yoshi. In the Balloon Racing minigame, both Red and Yellow Yoshi's are colored slightly differently, with their head spines and saddles both matching their shoe color.

[[File:NSMBW Yoshis Group Art.jpg|thumb|left|Three of the Yoshis found in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''.]]

Green Yoshis, along with Yellow, Light Blue, and Pink Yoshis appear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', where they can help the Mario Bros. and the two Toads. Green Yoshis will always appear when playing alone, while the alternate colors only appear in multiplayer, and always depend on the number of players (Yellow for two players, light blue for three players, and pink for four players).

 

In this game, Yoshis only appear in [[World 1-3 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 1-3]], [[World 2-5 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 2-5]], [[World 3-2 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 3-2]], [[World 4-5 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 4-5]], [[World 6-4 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 6-4]], and [[World 7-6 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 7-6]], they also appear in {{world link|coin|5|World Coin-5 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)}} of the [[Coin Battle]] mode.

 

Yoshis can [[Flutter Jump]] and stomp enemies that Mario and the others cannot normally defeat with jumps. Like in ''Super Mario World'', their main ability is eating enemies and fruits, but they cannot swallow shelled enemies, and the shells do not give Yoshis any special abilities. Instead, swallowing a [[Fire Piranha Plant|Venus Fire Trap]] gives a Yoshi the ability to spit a fireball, they can also spit fireballs from a Venus Fire Trap or a player, iceballs thrown by an [[Ice Bro]], and hammers thrown by a [[Hammer Bro]]. Eating five fruits and leaf-covered [[Pokey]]s causes Yoshis to lay eggs that hatch into power-ups for the players to collect. When hurt, the Yoshi drops off its rider and runs around in panic until someone jumps back on its saddle. Unlike in ''Super Mario World'', Yoshis cannot be taken out of the levels in which they are found.

 

According to [[list of New Super Mario Bros. Wii pre-release and unused content|unused]] in-game data, Yoshis cannot be used while underwater, as the player automatically dismounts them if they fall into the water. Yoshis also cannot make [[Jumbo Ray]]s chirp, cannot sink floating [[barrel]]s, do not have proper animations for entering horizontal [[Warp Pipe]]s, cannot hit [[Flying ? Block]]s for items, and cannot use [[Bouncy Cloud]]s properly; most of these issues are resolved with the Green Yoshis in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]''.

Originally, Red and Blue Yoshis were meant to appear, but they were [[List of New Super Mario Bros. Wii pre-release and unused content|replaced]] by the Pink and Light Blue Yoshis in the final game.

====''New Super Mario Bros. U'' / ''New Super Luigi U'' / ''New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe''====

{{multiframe|[[File:NSMBU Blue Toad and Baby Yoshi Artwork.png|100px]][[File:WiiU NewMarioU 3 char03 E3.png|100px]][[File:NSMBU Glowing Baby Yoshi With Mario Artwork 2.png|100px]]|The three Baby Yoshis: Bubble Baby Yoshi, Balloon Baby Yoshi, and Glowing Baby Yoshi|size=300}}

In ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'', only Green Yoshis appear, though they behave identically to the ones in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''. Up to four Green Yoshis can appear in multiplayer.

[[Baby Yoshi]]s also appear on the world map and certain levels and have different colors with special abilities. [[Bubble Baby Yoshi]]s spit out bubbles that trap enemies when the player shakes their [[Wii Remote]]. [[Balloon Baby Yoshi]]s inflate like a balloon when the Wii Remote is shaken. [[Glowing Baby Yoshi]]s can illuminate the dark and stun enemies when the Wii Remote is shaken. Baby Yoshis are also vital in a [[Toad House]] minigame. A new meter appears when Yoshi eats [[Fruit (Yoshi food)|fruits]], which shows how many fruits Yoshi has eaten, effectively replacing the number system. Yoshis also appear in ''[[New Super Luigi U]]'' with the same role and purpose.

Yoshi is a playable character in ''[[Super Mario Run]]'', with the ability to Flutter Jump and having an immunity to landing on spikes. In addition, many Yoshi themed items exist in reference to him. Four other colored Yoshis were added in the version 2.0.0 update. Their emblems use an Yoshi's Egg with spots matching the color, but their [[Goal Pole]] and [[Checkpoint Flag]] color remains orange. The Houses that unlock them are the same as [[Yoshi's House]], but with the egg uses spots of the matching color. Combined with Yoshi, the Yoshis match the five colors of Toads in the game. Yoshis are popular with Toads of their own color, meaning that in Toad Rally, when a Yoshi uses a move that makes a Toad cheer for them, that Toad is more likely to be of that color. It also allows Toads of colors that do not normally appear in a course to appear. This effect was also added to Yoshi, corresponding with Green Toads. Blue Yoshi is the only Yoshi available to unlock if players do not have the full version of this game.

Yoshis return in ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS]]'', appearing in both the ''Super Mario World'' and ''New Super Mario Bros. U'' styles, where they retain their functions in each style. They are replaced by the [[Goomba's Shoe]] in the ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' styles.  

 

''Super Mario Maker'' introduces several unique characteristics for Yoshis not present in the original ''Super Mario World'' and ''New Super Mario Bros. U''. Yoshis can now be used in castle, airship, or Ghost House levels, as well as underwater levels in the ''New Super Mario Bros. U'' style; music tracks associated with these levels from the respective original games now have new percussion parts for riding a Yoshi. Yoshis can also eat [[Hammer Bro]]s (unlike in ''New Super Mario Bros. U'' where they were immune to Yoshis' tongue), [[Chain Chomp]]s, [[Rocky Wrench]]es, [[Cannonball]]s, and [[Magikoopa]]s, and, like [[Fire Piranha Plant]]s' fireballs and Hammer Bros.' hammers in ''New Super Mario Bros. U'', they can eat and spit out Rocky Wrenches' wrenches and [[Bowser]]'s fireballs. Their tongue also passes through [[Boo]]s. When spitting out a Fire Piranha Plant or a [[Lava Bubble]], Yoshis release three spreading fireballs, like they could with [[Red Shell]]s in ''Super Mario World''; they can also eat the fire from [[Burner]]s or [[Fire Bar]]s and spit a single fireball. Similarly, when eating a [[Dry Bones]], Yoshis spit three spreading bones, similarly to how Dry Bones used a bone as a projectile in ''Super Mario World''. While riding a Yoshi, Mario can jump off of [[Grinder]]s (like other spiked enemies) and stand on [[Thwomp]]s without taking damage, and becomes immune to the [[Sledge Bro]]s.' and [[Bowser Jr.]]'s Ground Pound attacks.

 

In addition, Pink and Light-Blue Yarn Yoshis appear as unlockable [[Mystery Mushroom]] [[Costume Mario|costume]]s in the original game, which can be unlocked either at random upon completion of the 100-Mario Challenge on Normal difficulty, or by scanning the respective [[amiibo]]. The costumes use sound effects from ''[[Yoshi's Woolly World]]''.

Yoshis appear in ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'' with the same appearance and functionality as in ''Super Mario Maker''. Red Yoshis are available as a course element created by applying the [[Super Mushroom]] modifier to [[Yoshi's Egg]] to create a big red Yoshi's Egg. Rather than using their tongue, they spit fireballs, and if Mario is [[Fire Mario]], Red Yoshi will spit three fireballs at once like in ''Super Mario World''.

 

 

 

In [[Nintendo Power]]'s ''[[Super Mario Adventures]]'' comics, which is based on the ''Super Mario World'' video game, Bowser kidnaps various Yoshis from the [[Yoshi Village]], and their leader, Yoshi himself, has to team up with Mario and Luigi to save them and Princess Peach. They later are able to free the Yoshis and have them stampede the wedding between Bowser and the brainwashed Peach, rescuing the princess. Bowser tries to hide in the giant wedding cake, but the Yoshis eat it, forcing him to accept defeat and leave Dinosaur Land.

Their language is shown to consist of nothing but the word "Yoshi", making Yoshis unintelligible to Mario and Luigi.

*'''[[Super Mario: Mario im Wunderland]]''': In this comic, Mario meets a Yoshi who wants darker skin, and is later turned into a Black Yoshi by the Crab wizard.

*'''[[Super Mario: Verloren in der Zeit]]''': Mario gets sent back to the Stone Age in this 16-page comic, where he encounters a Yoshi as well as dinosaurs and cave men. The Yoshi is wearing a hat reading "taxi" and offers his services to Mario, but he declines.

*'''[[Auf der Suche nach dem Glück!]]''': In this comic, Kamek sucks all of the color out of Yoshi's Island. But six gray Yoshi eggs hatch six colorful baby Yoshis. The Yoshis soon see that something is wrong with the world around them when a colorful Lakitu flies over to them and tells them the predicament that they are in. The Yoshis then go to town and start eating all of the fruit in the market. After that, the color starts returning. They are soon on a talk show that Baby Bowser is watching which makes Baby Bowser furious, so he and Kamek go out to find the Yoshis. Meanwhile the Yoshi finish the talk show and start a band concert about fruit. Baby Bowser and Kamek soon interrupt their concert and trap them in a force field. The people in the stands then start throwing fruit at the Yoshis, which the Yoshis eat and use to break out of the force field. Baby Bowser and Kamek attempt to fly away, but Baby Bowser falls off and lands in a cannon. A clown then blasts the cannon and shoots Baby Bowser into the sky, ending the comic.

[[File:Yoshi comic 2.JPG|thumb|A Green and Yellow Yoshi swimming away from a shark (which turns out to be a Black Yoshi) Translation: That wants to have us for breakfast!]]

*'''[[Die Nacht der leuchtenden Yoshis!]]''': This comic is the second part of the comic above. The Yoshis are at the beach, when a shark appears in the water. Everyone runs away except a Green and Yellow Yoshi who are still swimming. When they notice the shark, they panic and try to swim away, but end up needing to be saved by a lifeguard. After they are all out of the water, the shark turns out to be a Black Yoshi. When the Yoshis see him, they think he has dirt all over him because they have never seen a Black Yoshi before. So thinking they are cleaning him, they wash him. He turns out still black when he tells them this is his skin. They all reject and leave him and he stands in the same spot until night falls. The Yoshis then camp out as soon as night falls. Meanwhile, hiding in a bush, Baby Bowser and Kamek plan the Yoshis' capture, waiting until they are asleep before raiding the campsite with an army of Shy Guys. Then, out of nowhere, both Kamek and Baby Bowser are struck by Yoshi eggs. They then get angry and ask who did threw them, only to have dozens and dozens of eggs rain down and chase them away. It turns out that the Black Yoshi is the one who threw the eggs. He then unties the Yoshis and tells them his story. It turns out that he is the same Yoshi from [[Super Mario: Mario im Wunderland]] who was turned black by the wizard. It turns out that after he was turned black, his life got harder: he was not allowed into movies, he was yelled at, and he was chased by a chef who wanted to make a meatball out of him. The Yoshis finally accept the Black Yoshi as a friend, and they all have a good rest of the night.

In ''[[Yoshi (game)|Yoshi]]'', Mario has to arrange egg halves and enemies to produce Small, Tall, Winged, and Star Yoshis. To get a Small Yoshi, Mario must combine two halves of a Yoshi egg. To get a Tall Yoshi, Mario must have one to four enemies in between the two halves of an egg. To get a [[Winged Yoshi]], Mario must have five or six enemies in between the two halves of an egg. To get a [[Star Yoshi]], Mario must have seven enemies in between the two halves of an egg. If a Small Yoshi hatches, 50 points are awarded. If a Tall Yoshi hatches, 100-250 points are awarded. If a Winged Yoshi hatches, 300-350 points are awarded. If a Star Yoshi hatches, 500 points are awarded.

In ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' and the reissue ''[[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3]]'', [[Baby Bowser]]'s caretaker, [[Kamek]], predicts that two babies born that morning will spell disaster for the Koopas and attempts to steal them from the [[stork]], who is carrying the babies to their parents. However, he only manages to snag [[Baby Luigi]], while [[Baby Mario]] falls to Yoshi's Island and lands unharmed on Yoshi's back.

The infant causes some brief panic among the Yoshis, until Yoshi takes charge and decides to help reunite Mario and Luigi and send them to their parents. The other Yoshis agree to help him transport Baby Mario across Yoshi's Island to [[Bowser's Castle]] through use of a relay system. Each Yoshi carries the baby for one level in each world, before passing him on to the next Yoshi in line. Yoshis can eat enemies, turning them into eggs which they can then throw at other enemies and obstacles. Yoshis can also use the [[Flutter Jump]] ability, allowing them to prolong their descend and stay airborne temporarily. Yoshis can also transform themselves into various vehicles through the use of [[morph bubble]]s, which helps them progress through the island. Later in the game, Yoshi defeats Baby Bowser and forces Kamek to retreat, allowing him to rescue Baby Luigi and free the stork. The Yoshis then let the stork send Baby Mario and Baby Luigi to their parents.

[[File:TA4.PNG|thumb|The title screen of ''Tetris Attack'' shows the different Yoshi colors.]]

In ''[[Tetris Attack]]'', Bowser curses Yoshi's friends, including [[Baby Yoshi#Tetris Attack|a baby Yoshi]], forcing him to battle them to break their spell. Baby Yoshis of various colors also appear in the title screen.

[[File:Ysbg.png|thumb|left|300px|All of the Baby Yoshis in ''Yoshi's Story''.]]

In ''[[Yoshi's Story]]'', Baby Bowser steals the [[Super Happy Tree]], the source of the island's happiness, and transforms it into a storybook. He curses the Yoshis, making them unable to stop him. However, the curse does not affect six Baby Yoshis in their eggs. When they hatch, the six Baby Yoshis go to find the Super Happy Tree to refill the island's happiness.

More and more worlds become available to the Yoshis as their happiness levels increase by eating fruit. Later on, the Baby Yoshis reach Baby Bowser's Castle where they defeat Baby Bowser and reclaim the Super Happy Tree.

The color of Yoshi used determines their favorite fruits; Green Yoshi favors [[Watermelon|watermelons]], Yellow Yoshi favors [[Banana|bananas]], Red Yoshi and Pink Yoshi favor [[Apple|apples]] and Blue Yoshi and Light Blue Yoshi favor [[grapes]]. Both Black Yoshi and White Yoshi favor all fruits equally (barring the [[Lucky Fruit]] chosen before a playthrough) while all Yoshi colors favor [[Melon|melons]]. Additionally, both Black and White Yoshis have faster horizontal flutter jump movement than the other Yoshis can while they are [[Super Happy]].

 

Each Yoshi also has a different pitch to their voices; Green and Yellow retain a normal pitch, Red and Pink are slightly higher and White Yoshi has the highest pitch, while Blue and Light Blue are slightly lower, and Black Yoshi has the lowest pitched voice. This is not present in the Japanese version of the game.

In ''[[Yoshi Touch & Go]]'', the Yoshis have to transport Baby Mario to the stork after Kamek kidnaps Baby Luigi and causes the bird to drop Baby Mario. The color of the Yoshi varies depending on how many coins the player collects while guiding Baby Mario down to the ground. The amount of eggs a Yoshi can carry varies depending on their color: Green Yoshi has 20 eggs, Light Blue Yoshi has 25 eggs, Pink Yoshi has 30 eggs, Blue Yoshi has 35 eggs, Yellow Yoshi has 40 eggs, Red  Yoshi has 45 eggs, Black, Orange, and Purple Yoshi have 50 eggs, and White Yoshi has unlimited eggs. In marathon, a Yoshi's own color changes after every 1,000 yards.

[[File:YIDS Babies.jpg|thumb|Yoshis each carrying a baby in ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]'']]

In ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]'', Bowser and Kamek travel back in time to kidnap seven [[star children]] in order to use the energy within their bodies to let Bowser take over the world. Without knowing the identity of the children, they plan to steal every single infant in the Mushroom World, but one way or another, the babies escape their grasps. Baby Luigi is successfully captured, but manages to avoid detection for the duration of his time at the castle, and all the other children escape or are cast out by the villains, and help the Yoshis save the rest of the babies.

In the final battle, Yoshi and three others fight Bowser, carrying [[Baby Mario]], [[Baby Peach]], [[Baby DK]] and [[Baby Wario]], as Baby Bowser turns traitor when they reach Bowser's Castle. After their defeat, the Koopas return to the future and the babies are brought home by the storks.

 

A green Baby Yoshi is shown hatching in the end credits for the game, and is revealed to be the seventh star child.

''[[Yoshi's New Island]]'' takes place directly after ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' and before ''Yoshi's Island DS'', revealing that the stork delivered the babies to the wrong house in the previous game. Kamek then attacks and steals Baby Luigi and the stork, but Baby Mario falls onto [[Egg Island]], another home of the Yoshis. Baby Mario is then found by the Yoshis, who help reunite him with his brother and save the island from Baby Bowser.  During the final boss fight, after Baby Bowser is defeated, adult Bowser travels back in time and must be defeated so that Yoshi can rescue Baby Luigi and the stork.

Gameplay is similar to the original ''Yoshi's Island'', with some new features. Yoshi can now eat [[Mega Guy]]s and [[Metal Guy]]s to lay [[Mega Eggdozer]]s and [[Metal Eggdozer]]s, respectively. The latter prevents Yoshi from [[Flutter Jump|flutter-jumping]], but allows him to go undersea. New vehicle transformations also exist, such as [[Hot-Air Balloon Yoshi]], [[Bobsled Yoshi]], and [[Mine-Cart Yoshi]]. The [[Yoshi Star]] is also a new item that transforms Yoshi into [[Super Yoshi (form)|Super Yoshi]]. Gold Yoshi Stars allow him to run on walls, while Red Yoshi Stars allow Yoshi to fly horizontally like a rocket.

In ''[[Yoshi's Woolly World]]'' and ''[[Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World]]'', Yoshis live peacefully on [[Craft Island]]. One day, Kamek arrives on the island to turn all of the Yoshis into [[Wonder Wool]], but two Yoshis hide from the spell inside the [[Big Yarn Ball (location)|Big Yarn Ball]]. One is always Red Yoshi, while the other is Green Yoshi, Pink Yoshi, or Light-Blue Yoshi depending on the save file. These two set out to recover and reknit the other Yoshis.

 

Yoshis act similarly to how they do in other Yoshi games. Instead of carrying Baby Mario and collecting [[Star (Yoshi's Island series)|star]]s to protect him, Yoshis have a [[Health Meter|health display]] and collect [[Heart (item)|heart]]s to fill it. The handcrafted aesthetic enables Yoshis to unravel most enemies and objects with their tongue through the Eat action, converting them into [[yarn ball]]s while in their mouth. This can include large portions of the terrain, if there is a [[Bow (object)|bow]] to start from. Yarn balls are almost identical to Yoshi's Eggs, with the added advantage of knitting frames and frame enemies into solid objects and tying up certain hazards but the disadvantage of certain enemies only being tied up instead of defeated. In multiplayer or as Double Yoshi, Yoshi can be eaten to make them into yarn balls, They return to their Yoshi state after landing. In addition to ten basic colored Yoshis, there are 58 that have specific [[List of Yoshi designs in Yoshi's Woolly World|design]]s. To unlock one, the player has to collect all five Wonder Wool in a course. Once complete, that Yoshi will be reknit and appear next to that course on that world's World Map as well as in the [[Yoshi Hut]]. In both places, they can be set as the player character(s). The ten basic colors, excluding Red and the Yoshi for that save file, are only available after completing [[King Bowser's Castle (Yoshi's Woolly World)|King Bowser's Castle]], at which point they populate Craft Island again and appear in the Yoshi Hut. (In ''Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World'', these Yoshis do not appear on Craft Island.) Additionally, [[amiibo]] can be scanned to turn Yoshi into a design based on the character of the amiibo, which additionally adds that design as a selectable character in the [[amiibo Hut]]. A Yoshi amiibo can be scanned to unlock Yoshi as a figurine as a playable character. If the player uses a Yarn Yoshi amiibo, they can save a non-amiibo exclusive Yoshi to it and load that Yoshi into any game. Yoshis loaded into a game from a Yarn Yoshi amiibo appear in the amiibo Hut as well. Exclusively in ''Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World'', the player can create Original Yoshi with their own colors and patterns in the Yoshi Hut.

 

Yoshis are made of yarn in this game, which further affects how they move and react to objects. When pushing objects like [[Chomp Rock]]s and [[accordion wall]]s, their nose deforms. They can cling to [[Conveyor Belt]]s, which consist of hook and loop fasteners. When running and not moving into a wall, Yoshis turn their feet into wheels to roll instead. Turning around maintains this state but coming to a stop while on the ground ends it. When flutter-jumping or swimming, they turn their feet into a propeller. Ground-pounding turns their body, except for the head, into a hammer. Entering a level has Yoshi reform into a ball then hop inside, and starting a level has threads come together to form Yoshi. Exiting a level works in reverse, with the ball landing on the World Map and reverting to Yoshi. This paragraph could go on forever, but suffice to say there are many more minor transformations and interactions.

In ''[[Yoshi's Crafted World]]'', the 8 Yoshis (green, pink, red, orange, yellow, cyan, blue and purple) work together to gather the pieces of the shattered [[Sundream Stone]] after the gems were scattered in a fight with Kamek and Baby Bowser. The Yoshis here are similar in terms of abilities to the ones in ''Yoshi's Woolly World'', though they can also flip between 2D and 3D perspectives as well as throw eggs at items in the background and foreground.

The last winner of the derby is a Yoshi named [[Boshi]] who proceeds to name himself leader of Yo'ster Isle and suspends the races. Instead, only one-on-one races between himself and slower Yoshis are allowed, with [[Yoshi Cookie]]s as the prize. When Mario arrives, he helps Yoshi defeat Boshi in a race, prompting the Yoshis to try and appoint Yoshi as their new leader. Yoshi declines the offer, however, and instead re-opens the Mushroom Derby to everyone, with no Yoshi in charge.

Mario and his partners visit [[Yoshi's Village]] on [[Lavalava Island]] in ''[[Paper Mario]]''. They are there looking for a [[Star Spirit]] that Bowser has trapped in a playing card and given to a minion to guard within the island's volcano, but they find they cannot get into the mountain on their own. The Yoshi [[Village Leader]] says he will help Mario and the others if they help round up [[Fearsome 5|five missing Yoshi Kids]]. With the help of their [[Cheep Cheep]] babysitter, [[Sushie]], Mario and co. soon find the young Yoshis and can continue on with their quest.

[[File:Yoshi Kids.png|thumb|upright=1.55|left|[[Yoshi Kid|Yoshi]] in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' can hatch into one of seven colors.]]

When Mario and his current set of partners visit [[Glitzville]] in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', they soon find themselves with custody of a [[Yoshi's Egg]], after its initial owner, [[Mr. Hoggle]], decides against cooking and serving it once he realizes it could move on its own accord. For a while, the egg follows Mario and his partners. Then, after the match with [[The Iron Adonis Twins]], Mario returns to find that the egg has hatched into a [[Yoshi Kid]], the color of whom varies depending on how much time has passed between Mario's acquisition of the egg and its hatching. Mario names the Yoshi, who then travels with him and the other partners for the remainder of the game, before becoming a fighter in the [[Glitz Pit]] after the quest is over.

For the first time in the ''Super Mario'' franchise, nonspecific Yoshis appear as enemies in ''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]'', even though they cannot be targeted or defeated. They are found in [[the Emerald Circus]]. When Mario first arrives, the Yoshis are locked in a cage around the corner of the main entrance. If Mario attempts to open the cage, one of the Yoshis will swallow him and spit him out, dealing 5 points of damage to him. After [[Lemmy]] flees from the stage, the Yoshis escape from the cage. During the battle on the stage, they will randomly appear out of a curtain to try to eat Mario. Mario has to block their tongues, or they will waste his next card. The Yoshi will then run back into the curtain. [[Yoshi]] also appears in the [[Dark Bloo Inn]], albeit [["It"|invisible]] at first. If Mario tries to mount him, he runs off to the Emerald Circus, where Mario can talk to him once the Yoshis escape from their cage. A picture at [[Tangerino Grill]] appears to be the silhouette of a Toad riding a Yoshi.

In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' and its [[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions|remake]], Yoshis are shown living in the [[Beanbean Kingdom]]. They are found at the [[Yoshi Theater (Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga)|Yoshi Theater]] and Mario and Luigi must find [[Bean Fruit]] for seven hungry Yoshis to earn [[Neon Egg]]s and ultimately obtain a [[Beanstar]] piece. They can be seen in the credits in Yoshi Theater watching the events of the game at the conclusion of the end credits; the remake instead shows a similar scene during a pre-intro cutscene. Regardless of their color, the Yoshis in the original [[Game Boy Advance|GBA]] version all have orange or yellow shoes. In the [[Nintendo 3DS|3DS]] remake, the Yoshis have their normal shoes, depending on their skin color.

In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'', the [[Shroob]]s drop a [[Giant Egg]] on Yoshi's Island. It then becomes a tourist attraction, but later hatches into a Yoshi-like creature known as [[Yoob]], which proceeds to eat every Yoshi with its tongue. A factory in its [[Yoob's Belly|belly]] then encases the eaten Yoshis in [[Egg (Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time)|eggs]], so that they will also hatch as Yoobs. The plan is stopped by Yoshi, who is aided by Baby Mario, Baby Luigi, and their adult counterparts, who had both traveled back in time to save Peach and stop the Shroobs. Yoshi discovers a way to escape through Yoob's digestive tract and the four Mario Bros. free the captured and imprisoned Yoshis to help him. They also defeat the guardian of the factory, [[Sunnycide]], by pushing a large rock on him, and once the Yoshis escape and the factory is destroyed, Yoob falls asleep. In international releases, a Black Yoshi appears in the Sunnycide boss battle, the only instance of one appearing, while the original version shows a Yellow Yoshi instead.<ref name="TCRF Miscellaneous Changes">{{cite|title=[[tcrf:Mario_%26_Luigi:_Partners_in_Time/Regional_Differences|''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time''/Regional Differences]]|publisher=The Cutting Room Floor|accessdate=April 4, 2023}}</ref>

After Yoob falls asleep, the Yoshis all think that Baby Bowser rescued them, until the Cobalt Shards send him flying, and Toadbert tells the Yoshis that the Mario Bros. saved them.

[[File:Yoshis MSLOG.png|thumb|Seven different Yoshi colors, as seen in ''Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games''.]]

Yoshis appear as a species in certain games of the [[Mario & Sonic (series)|''Mario & Sonic'' series]]. In ''[[Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games]]'', [[Dream Equestrian]] involves players carrying a wagon full of seven color Yoshi eggs, all hatching into Yoshis upon reaching the goal. In the [[Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games (Nintendo 3DS)|Nintendo 3DS version]] of ''Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games'', five differently colored Yoshis (red, blue, light blue, yellow, and pink) accompany the playable Green Yoshi as his teammates in the [[Football (Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games for Nintendo 3DS)|Football]] event, and the Yellow and Light Blue Yoshis operate shops in the ''Road to Rio'' mode, with Yellow Yoshi's shop being used to trade apples for [[Mii]] outfits, and Light Blue Yoshi's shop being used to trade melons with sports gear. In the [[Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games (Wii U)|Wii U version]] of ''Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games'', Yoshis appear in the Mario League, where Team Mario does not have enough non-guest characters to create three teams of four for any of the events, so Red and Yellow Yoshi are featured alongside Yoshi himself as one of the members of Team Mario, with each Yoshi occupying a team.

===''Mario Party'' series===

[[File:MP1 YTI Blue and Pink Yoshi.jpg|thumb|left|The Blue and Pink Yoshis in ''Mario Party'']]

In ''[[Mario Party]]'', a Blue Yoshi and a Pink Yoshi appear on the board [[Yoshi's Tropical Island]]. The Blue Yoshi is separated from the Pink Yoshi, who is trapped in a small island surrounded by whirlpools and the Blue Yoshi is unable to get across. The players must collect the stars to use them as a bridge to allow the Blue Yoshi to go to the island, The game ends when the bridge is formed to allow the Blue Yoshi to reunite with the Pink one. They are also accompanied by the top three winners along with Toad, Boo, Koopa, a [[Thwomp]], and a star, while the fourth place player tries to join them, but is devoured by [[Cheep Cheep#Mario Party|Bubba]].

There is also an unused minigame known as [[List of Mario Party pre-release and unused content|Yoshi's Tongue Meeting]], where the players jump atop a Yoshi, either Pink, Yellow, Blue or Red (if the player plays as Yoshi, he just stands in the same position without a rider). The Yoshis have baby Wigglers on their tongues, which extend to the Wigglers' mothers in order to reunite the children with their parents. If it comes too late, the baby will kick its mother into the bush. If it comes too far, both the Wiggler and its baby will simply cry. However, if {{button|N64|A}} is pressed at the right time, the mother and child will reunite and the player wins.

Yoshis reappear in ''[[Mario Party Superstars]]'' due to the ''Mario Party'' board Yoshi's Tropical Island returning. Unlike the original [[Nintendo 64|N64]] version, there are a few more Yoshis on the board. The Blue Yoshi returns but is moved to Cantaloupe Island and is now seen relaxing on a sliced cantaloupe. A Red Yoshi appears on the central island, replacing the Pink Yoshi (though it now appears on a sliced cantaloupe floating on the water beside Cantaloupe Island)<ref>{{cite|url=www.youtube.com/watch?v=20mV7krJIo4|author=Swiftjar|date=September 30, 2021|title=Yoshi’s Tropical Island Analysis & Comparison (N64 Vs Switch) - Mario Party Superstars|publisher=YouTube|language=en|accessdate=June 27, 2024}}</ref> and being surrounded by Cheep Cheeps instead of whirlpools from the original game. A Yellow Yoshi additionally appears on Watermelon Island cheering on top of a sliced big Watermelon.

===''Mario Golf'' series===

====''Mario Golf'' (Nintendo 64)====

[[File:Mgyoshi.png|thumb|Yoshi's alternate costumes in ''Mario Golf'']]

In ''[[Mario Golf (Nintendo 64)|Mario Golf]]'', Yellow, Red, and Light-Blue Yoshi can be selected as Yoshi's alternate costume on the character select screen. The player can choose the colors by using {{button|n64|Cright}}, {{button|n64|Cdown}}, and {{button|n64|Cleft}}, and each Yoshi can be chosen multiple times if there is more than one player.

====''Mario Golf: Super Rush''====

Yoshis are non-playable characters in ''[[Mario Golf: Super Rush]]''. A Pink Yoshi appears in [[Bonny Greens]] in the qualifying round. It is then never seen again unless the player plays the qualifying round again.

As of the version 2.0.0 update:

*If the player achieved a rank of A- or higher in the Ranked Match during August 2021, they would be able to unlock Red Yoshi, Blue Yoshi, and Yellow Yoshi as variants for Yoshi.

*If the player achieved a rank of A- or higher in the Ranked Match during April 2022, they would be able to unlock Pink Yoshi, Light-Blue Yoshi, and Orange Yoshi as variants for Yoshi.

Colored Yoshis return as alternate colors for Yoshi in ''[[Mario Tennis Aces]]'', in the October 2018 update. Unlike in ''Mario Tennis Open'', all Yoshis have the same green tennis racket as Green Yoshi in this game.

In ''[[Mario Kart Arcade GP DX]]'', Red and Black Yoshis appear as downloadable color swaps of Yoshi, with their own exclusive [[Special Item]]s: [[Egg Bazooka]], and [[Yoshi's Egg#Mario Kart Arcade GP|Rolling Egg]] respectively.

In ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', Yoshis can be seen as spectators jumping and waving in [[Sweet Sweet Canyon]], [[Mount Wario]], {{classic link|GBA|Mario Circuit}}, {{classic link|SNES|Donut Plains 3}}, {{classic link|N64|Yoshi Valley}}, {{classic link|GCN|Yoshi Circuit}}, [[Excitebike Arena]], {{classic link|GCN|Baby Park}}, and [[Super Bell Subway]]. In the latter game, they appear in [[Merry Mountain]], as well as the [[Battle Mode|battle]] courses [[Sweet Sweet Kingdom]], {{classic link|SNES|Battle Course 1}}, and {{classic link|3DS|Wuhu Town}}. Some are seen sitting in their seats. Occasionally, some of these Yoshis will hum [[Kazumi Totaka#Totaka's Song|Totaka's Song]].<ref>{{cite|url=www.youtube.com/watch?v=mwyp09J9Z2U|author=GameXplain|title=Totaka's Song in ''Mario Kart 8'' (Secret)|date=January 12, 2015|publisher=YouTube|accessdate=June 27, 2024|language=en}}</ref> Additionally, three different-colored Yarn Yoshis (green, pink, and light blue) are seen in the background of {{classic link|GBA|Ribbon Road}}.

Also, several differently colored Yoshis are playable as variants of Yoshi, namely Light Blue, Black, Red, Yellow, White, Blue, Pink, and Orange Yoshis. In ''Mario Kart 8'', these variants are unlocked when both DLC packs ([[The Legend of Zelda × Mario Kart 8|''The Legend of Zelda'' × ''Mario Kart 8'']] and [[Animal Crossing × Mario Kart 8|''Animal Crossing'' × ''Mario Kart 8'']]) have been purchased, while in ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'', they are available from the start in the base game. Red Yoshi is the Staff [[Ghost (Mario Kart series)|Ghost]] for {{classic|GCN|Yoshi Circuit}} and Orange Yoshi is the Staff Ghost for {{classic link|GBA|Cheese Land}}; additionally, in ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'', White Yoshi is the 200cc Staff Ghost for [[Shy Guy Falls]], Yellow Yoshi is the 200cc Staff Ghost for {{classic link|3DS|DK Jungle}}, and Blue Yoshi is the 200cc Staff Ghost for Super Bell Subway.

[[File:MKT Tricolor Yoshis.jpg|thumb|x150px|left|Red, Blue and White Yoshi tricking on [[Tour Paris Promenade|Paris Promenade 3]] in ''Mario Kart Tour'']]

In ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', Yoshis can be seen as spectators on many courses in the game such as [[GCN Yoshi Circuit]].

All of Yoshi's alternate colors from ''Mario Kart 8'' return as playable drivers, separate from Yoshi himself, those being Red, Black, Blue, White, Pink, Orange, Light-blue, and Yellow Yoshi, who were respectively introduced in the [[New Year's Tour (2020)|2020 New Year's Tour]], [[Yoshi Tour (2020)|2020 Yoshi Tour]], [[Yoshi Tour (2021)|2021 Yoshi Tour]] (blue and white), [[Sydney Tour (September 2021)|September 2021 Sydney Tour]], [[Autumn Tour (2022)|2022 Autumn Tour]], [[Yoshi Tour (2023)|2023 Yoshi Tour]], and [[Sunshine Tour]] and have the [[Yoshi's Egg]] (red, orange, light-blue, and yellow), [[Double Bob-ombs]], [[Dash Ring]], [[Triple Mushrooms]], and [[Heart (item)|Heart]] as their respective [[Special skill (Mario Kart Tour)|special skill]]s. Red, Blue, Pink, Orange, Light-Blue and Yellow Yoshi are classified as Super drivers while Black and White Yoshi are classified as High-End drivers. Black Yoshi and White Yoshi were originally exclusive to their debut tour and several subsequent tours but became regular High-End drivers starting with the [[Berlin Tour]] and [[Sydney Tour (September 2021)|September 2021 Sydney Tour]], respectively.

===''Mario Strikers'' series===

====''Super Mario Strikers''====

In ''[[Super Mario Strikers]]'', Yoshis can be seen as spectators in stadiums during gameplay.  

Yoshis return as spectators in ''[[Mario Strikers: Battle League]]''. Sometimes, one Yoshi will throw a [[? Block]] to one of the teams' members during gameplay. The player can select up to four Yoshis on the character select screen per team. Different colored Yoshis will be playable based on the corresponding team color, excluding the lime-green team using Green Yoshis and the purple and light-purple teams using Blue Yoshis (though originally Purple Yoshi was seen on the purple team in the overview trailer for the game, but was scrapped in the ''[[Mario Strikers: Battle League#Pre-release demo|Mario Strikers: Battle League First Kick]]'' pre-release demo and the final game).<ref>{{cite|url=youtu.be/_UmjcJT6nuQ?t=48|author=Nintendo of America|title=''Mario Strikers: Battle League'' – Overview Trailer – Nintendo Switch|language=en-us|publisher=YouTube|accessdate=June 27, 2024|date=May 12, 2022}}</ref>

Regardless of the color chosen though, all Yoshi colors excel best at Passing and Shooting, while their other stats are low.

 

===''Mario Super Sluggers''===

Five colored Yoshis (Red, Blue, Yellow, Light Blue, and Pink) along with Yoshi himself appear in ''[[Mario Super Sluggers]]'' as unlockable characters. Unlike Yoshi himself, however, they do not have Star Skills nor can they be selected as a team captain.

 

 

In the ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]'' and ''Super Mario Advance 4'' adaptations of ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', the king of the [[Pipe Land|Pipe Maze]] is transformed into a Green Yoshi by [[Ludwig|Ludwig von Koopa]] (whereas in the [[Nintendo Entertainment System|NES]] version of the game, predating Yoshis, the king was transformed into a [[Piranha Plant]]).

In addition, many Yoshi-themed ''Mario Kart'' racecourses have appeared: ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'' has [[N64 Yoshi Valley|Yoshi Valley]], ''[[Mario Kart: Super Circuit]]'' has [[Yoshi Desert]], ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'' has [[GCN Yoshi Circuit|Yoshi Circuit]], ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'' has [[DS Yoshi Falls|Yoshi Falls]] and reuses the GameCube course Yoshi Circuit, ''[[Mario Kart Arcade GP 2]]'' has a [[Yoshi Park 1|two]]-[[Yoshi Park 2|course]] Yoshi stage, and while it does not introduce a new course, ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'' reuses Yoshi Falls from the DS title. Yoshis also spectate a few courses in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]''. Yoshi Valley from ''Mario Kart 64'' and Yoshi Circuit from ''Mario Kart: Double Dash!!'' also reappear as retro courses in these two games. A track based on [[Yoshi's Island (location)|Yoshi's Island]] appears in both the ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass'' DLC and ''Mario Kart Tour'' under the [[Yoshi's Island (race course)|same name]], as well as Yoshi Circuit from ''Mario Kart: Double Dash!!'', Yoshi Valley from ''Mario Kart 64'' and Yoshi Desert from ''Mario Kart: Super Circuit'' all returning as classic courses.

Although Yoshis do not appear in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', a stone statue of one appears in Chapter 5: [[Land of the Cragnons]]. There is also a [[Sammer Guy]] called "Belly of the Yoshi", which is a reference to how Yoshis can eat as much food as they want without getting full. Yoshis were also referenced in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' by a planet shaped like a [[Yoshi's Egg]] in the [[Good Egg Galaxy]] and by a planet shaped like a Yoshi head in the [[Space Junk Galaxy]]. Similarly, in ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]'', there is a sphinx in World 2-2 called the [[Yoshi Sphinx]], whose head is shaped exactly like a Yoshi's head.

[[File:SMW Art - Yoshi.png|thumb|A Green Yoshi in ''Super Mario World'']]

Yoshis are bipedal non-avian [[dinosaur]]s that come in many different colors, with green being the most common. They have large, round snouts with big eyes protruding out of the very tops of their heads, their faces resembling those of [[Koopa Troopa]]s. Red, stegosaurus-like spines run down their backsides, and they have white underbellies. They are almost always seen wearing large, brightly-colored shoes, which are usually orange or red. They were initially portrayed with somewhat more realistic, therapod dinosaur-like features, such as a hunched-over, birdlike stance, a longer neck, and small hands with three digits. Hands with four digits appear first in the [[Super Mario World (television series)|''Super Mario World'' television series]] from [[DIC Entertainment|DIC]], then in the Japanese commercial of ''[[Mario Paint]]'',<ref>{{cite|url=www.youtube.com/watch?v=1V0KJWNquu0|title=''Mario Paint'' JPN Commercial|author=Japancommercials4u|language=ja|accessdate=June 27, 2024|date=January 17, 2009|publisher=YouTube}}</ref> and in artwork of ''[[Super Mario Kart]]'';<ref>{{file link|Yoshi SMK artwork.jpg|Artwork of Yoshi in ''Super Mario Kart''}}, note how his hands have four digits.</ref> this has become a common design choice by the end of the 1990s.<ref>{{file link|SMSQPB6 Finding.png|Mario and Yoshi finding a shiny object in ''Super Mario Story Quiz Picture Book 6: Friend Kidnapped''}}, a book realized in collaboration with Nintendo and published by Shogakukan in 1998. Note how Yoshi's hands feature four digits.</ref> The design of Yoshis has since changed to make them more anthropomorphic, with upright postures, shorter necks and human-like four digit hands. They usually retain their hunched stance in games where other characters ride them, however. Even though Yoshis are typically portrayed as having no visible teeth and swallowing their enemies whole without chewing them, they have been shown to have a full set of upper and lower teeth since the ''Super Mario Picture Books'' published by Shogakukan and written in collaboration with Nintendo,<ref>{{file link|SMSQPB5 Back.png|Back of ''Super Mario Story Quiz Picture Book 5: Mario's Amusement Park''}}.</ref> in particular: ''Super Mario Story Quiz Picture Book 2: Mario's Sports Day'',<ref>{{file link|SMSQPB2 Three-legged Race.png|A three legged race in ''Super Mario Story Quiz Picture Book 2: Mario's Sports Day''}}, both the upper teeth and lower teeth can be seen.</ref> and ''Super Mario Chie Asobi Ehon ④ Larry No Itazura'' (''Super Mario Wisdom Games Picture Book ④ Larry's Mischief''),<ref>{{file link|SMWGPB4 Back.png|Part of the activity on the back of ''Super Mario Chie Asobi Ehon ④ Larry No Itazura'' (''Super Mario Wisdom Games Picture Book ④ Larry's Mischief'').}}</ref> with the new design retaining them as seen in artwork for ''[[Yoshi's Story]]''.<ref>{{file link|Pink Yoshi Flutter Jump.png|A Pink Yoshi performing a Flutter Jump in ''Yoshi's Story''}}, note both sets of upper and lower teeth.</ref> The teeth are commonly shown in-game in sprite-based ''Yoshi'' platformers while one is flutter jumping. Yoshis were originally conceived of as a type of Koopa, with the saddles on their backs being their shells.<ref>{{cite|quote=Yoshi was originally supposed to be a type of Koopa. That saddle you see on his back was actually his shell.|author=[[Takashi Tezuka]]|title=''[[Super Mario History]]''}}</ref> Even in the bio of [[Yoshi]] on Nintendo's Japanese site, the saddle is considered to be a shell. Although most Yoshis have never been seen without their shoes, the appearance of [[Boshi]] in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'' confirms that Yoshis have three toes on each foot, and also have white pads on the bottom of their feet, as shown in ''Super Mario Story Quiz Picture Book 5: Mario's Amusement Park'' (「スーパーマリオおはなしクイズえほん 5 マリオの ゆうえんち」).<ref>{{file link|SMSQPB5 Shoes.png|A shoe recognition game on the back of ''Super Mario Story Quiz Picture Book 5: Mario's Amusement Park''}}.</ref> Early Yoshi sprites for ''Super Mario World'' showed babies that were blob-like in shape and adults with mouths resembling those of the current [[Baby Yoshi]]s.

A Yoshi's physical appearance changes depending how old they are. For example, in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', the [[Yoshi Kid]] appears much smaller compared to adult Yoshis. He also has hair, while most other Yoshis do not, though this is most likely to differentiate the character as playable. Newly-hatched Baby Yoshis featured in ''Super Mario World'' (among other games) are both smaller and also proportioned differently than the adults, with short, stubby bodies lacking in saddles, almost no neck, and a slightly down-curved snout. After eating enough enemies, food or power-ups, these Baby Yoshis will undergo a rapid growth spurt and turn into adults from that point onward.

====Color variations====

Yoshis come in a variety of colors. In ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', they can change skin color by eating different [[fruit]], while their colors are determined by hatching time in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. In ''[[Yoshi's Woolly World]]'' and ''[[Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World]]'', Yoshis come in many themed [[List of Yoshi designs in Yoshi's Woolly World|designs and patterns]] as opposed to being one color, including designs based on enemies, [[Nintendo]] consoles and even [[amiibo|other Nintendo characters]]. Shoe color changes along with skin color: a Green Yoshi has orange shoes, a Red Yoshi has blue shoes, a Yellow Yoshi has green shoes, etc. This shoe color denomination was not standardized until ''[[Yoshi's Story]]''.

In ''[[Super Mario World]]'', Yoshis have different abilities depending on their color and the Koopa Shell they hold in their mouth. If a Blue Yoshi holds a Koopa Shell of any color, it can temporarily grow wings until it is swallowed or spat out. If a Red Yoshi holds a shell of any color, it can spit it back out as a trio of [[fireball]]s. If a Yellow Yoshi holds a shell of any color, it can create sand clouds when landing on the ground until it is swallowed or spat out. Shells of corresponding color can also grant these abilities for a Yoshi of any color. In the [[SNES]] version, all Yoshi sprites, excluding the overworld map sprites, have orange arms. This was changed for the [[Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2|GBA port]] to having the arms match the rest of the body.

Yoshis are known for their long, chameleon-like tongues that allow them to swallow whatever they eat and turn it into an [[Yoshi's Egg|egg]]. The eggs can then be thrown at obstacles, enemies, and bosses, while other eggs hatch into items like [[1-Up Mushroom]]s. Yoshis usually swallow items and enemies very quickly, although in ''[[Super Mario World]]'', Yoshis takes a while before swallowing Koopa Shells.

Yoshis have large snouts which they can use to [[sniff]] out fruit and other collectibles or objects that are buried underground, although this ability is seen only in ''[[Yoshi's Story]]''.

In ''Super Mario World'', when carrying a Yellow Shell in their mouths (or any shell if the Yoshi itself is yellow), the Yoshi becomes heavy and shakes the ground each time it lands after a jump or fall. Yoshis are also one of the first creatures shown performing proper [[Ground Pound]]s - a move in which the performer jumps into the air, flips, and then slams into the ground. Yoshis first performed the move in ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island''. Yoshi's [[Yoshi Bomb]] in the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]] has him ground pound as his down special move. Bowser is shown doing the equivalent of a Ground Pound in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' (before the debut of Yoshis), and in games since then. Other characters have also been shown Ground Pounding, including Mario himself in titles such as ''[[Super Mario 64]]'', ''Super Mario Sunshine'', and various entries in the [[Mario Party (series)|''Mario Party'' franchise]].

The in-game Japanese text of Yoshi's [[trophy (Super Smash Bros. series)|trophy]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' states that Yoshis are neither male nor female. In the ''[[Chef]]'' minigame in ''[[Game & Watch Gallery 2]]'' and ''[[Game & Watch Gallery 4]]'', a Yoshi is shown to hatch other Yoshis without a mate; after being fed long enough, the Yoshi produces an egg that eventually hatches into another Yoshi. The baby then takes its parent's place and proceeds to eat enough food to turn into an adult, eventually producing an egg of its own, which then continues the cycle.

Other sources have shown Yoshis appearing to have a gender. At least one of the Yoshis in ''[[Paper Mario]]'' refers to his "son," and in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', the Yoshi who sometimes appears on board the [[Excess Express]] expresses his hatred of business trips due to them keeping him away from his "lovely wife". The original ''[[Mario Party]]'' also features a pair of Yoshis which appear to be one male and one female, although the exact nature of their relationship is not known. Additionally, while Yoshi is rarely referred to with gender-specific pronouns in Japanese, he is consistently referred to with masculine pronouns in translation, with laying eggs being one of his trademarks. This confusion is addressed in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', where [[Solid Snake]] assumes that Yoshi is a female because of his egg-laying abilities, only to be corrected by [[Otacon]] (both of whom use "it" rather than "he" or "she" while they are talking about Yoshi). It is addressed again in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', where [[Viridi]] remarks that there is nothing natural about a male who lays eggs while [[Palutena]] asserts that all living beings have both male and female elements.

Though omnivorous, Yoshis favor fruit, and in ''Yoshi's Story'', they become happy when eating fruit of their own color. Melons are their favorite fruit regardless of color. Some Yoshis, such as Black and White Yoshis, can digest [[Pepper]]s without hurting themselves. However, in ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'', Yoshi can eat the [[Dash Pepper]], turning him into [[Dash Yoshi]], and causing him to run very fast for a short amount of time. All Yoshis can eat enemies of various kinds, from large [[Koopa Troopa]]s to plants. Also, if they eat a [[Bean Fruit]], then they will lay a rare [[Neon Egg]], the color of which depends on the Yoshi's own color.

Yoshis are capable of speaking intelligibly, as demonstrated by Yoshi in ''[[Super Mario World]]'', ''[[Super Mario 64]]'', ''[[Tetris Attack]]'', and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', as well as other Yoshis in games like ''[[Yoshi's Story]]'', ''[[Paper Mario]]'', ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', and others. However, other games present Yoshis' speech in parentheses, such as ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'' (in which Yoshi must translate the speech of other Yoshis for Mario) and the ''[[Mario & Luigi (series)|Mario & Luigi]]'' series. Others have Yoshis only say the word "Yoshi" followed by a translation of what they are saying in parentheses, such as the ''[[Mario Baseball (series)|Mario Baseball]]'' series, ''[[Fortune Street]]'', ''[[Super Mario Party]]'', and others. The ''[[Super Mario Adventures]]'' comic jokes that Yoshis only say the word "Yoshi" to communicate. Their language has been referred to as simply "Yoshi".<ref>{{cite|author=NintendoAmerica|date=January 4, 2016|url=x.com/NintendoAmerica/status/684104528501837829|title=To be honest, Mario’s resolutions are pretty similar every year. What are *your* Nintendo-themed resolutions?|publisher=X|accessdate=July 9, 2024|archive=web.archive.org/web/20160127013737/https://twitter.com/nintendoamerica/status/684104528501837829}}</ref>

In some games, particularly older ones, Yoshis produce a sound of two pitch-bended orchestra hits (in ''Super Mario World'', only Yoshi speaks with a text bubble, though this was changed in the ''Super Mario Advance 2'' version). In ''Yoshi's Story'' and many later games, the Yoshis are voiced by Nintendo musician [[Kazumi Totaka]], who mutters the word "Yoshi" and other unintelligible sounds, such as "blum" and "ho hup". His voice is sped up to create the baby-like, high-pitched voices of the Yoshis.

Although [[Baby Yoshi]]s retain their squeaky voices in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'' and ''[[New Super Luigi U]]'', their speech bubbles once again consist of the word "Yoshi" followed by a translation.
