He is a spunky [[Baby Yoshi|Yoshi baby]] and the youngest of Mario's party members, being newborn. His purpose in the overworld is to allow Mario to ride him to travel around much faster and use a [[Flutter Jump]]-like ability to cross gaps. | ||
The Yoshi Kid is named by the player within the text space of eight characters, which incidentally makes "Yoshi Kid" and "Mini-Yoshi" too long to fit. The default name is simply "'''Yoshi'''", which is used in most appearances. | |||

While Mario, [[Goombella]], [[Koops]] | While Mario, [[Goombella]], [[Koops]] and [[Flurrie]] are fighting in [[Glitzville]]'s [[Glitz Pit]], they find that one of the fighting teams, the [[Iron Adonis Twins]], appears to be impervious to any attack they use. At an earlier time, Mario had found a [[Yoshi's Egg]] bouncing around, being chased by an owner of the [[Hot Dog Stand]], [[Mr. Hoggle]] (who had hopes of making a [[Southern Fried Egg Dog of Tastiness]] with it). After Mario caught the egg, it jumped onto a roof of the Hot Dog Stand, requiring Mario to [[Plane Mode|glide down]] to the roof to recover the egg; Goombella's [[Tattle]] on the egg is viewable before Mario interacts with the egg. Mr. Hoggle allowed Mario to keep the egg as most people "don't like eating stuff that jumps all over the place". Following this, the living and bouncy egg joined Mario's party. | ||
After Mario returns from his problematic battle with | After Mario returns from his problematic battle with the Iron Adonis Twins, the egg hatches into a [[Baby Yoshi|newborn Yoshi baby]] who thanks Mario for saving his life. He then joins Mario (who he knows as [[Mario#Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door|Gonzales]]), who proceeds to name him. The Yoshi can defeat the Iron Adonis Twins by [[Gulp|eating them and spitting them at each other]], as the gulp attack ignores enemy defense. He travels with [[Mario]] for the rest of the game. | ||
At the end of the adventure, | At the end of the adventure, he goes solo at the Glitz Pit, going under the name "'''The Great Gonzales Jr.'''", and is stated to be getting close to the title match. In [[Goombella]]'s letter, the Yoshi challenges the "Great Gonzales" by saying "I could totally take you in the ring now, so bring it!" He is notable for calling Mario "Gonzales" throughout the entire course of ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'' (in a manner similar to other non-player characters such as [[Goldbob]] and his family); his odd familiarity with this name is due to Mario's pseudonym, "Great Gonzales" (upon [[Grubba]] and [[Jolene]]'s insistence) while fighting in the Glitz Pit. By the end of the game, though, the Yoshi would appear to have slowly realized that "Gonzales's" real name was Mario, but he states that Mario will always be Gonzales to him. | ||

Yoshi had a minor cameo in ''[[Super Mario Run]]'' (ver. 3.2.0) on promotional artwork in the game during its celebration of the release of ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door (Nintendo Switch)]]'', though his presence on the in-game alert for the event was his only appearance in the game. | |||

Yoshi's coloration is determined by the amount of time that passes between the point where his egg joins Mario's party atop the Hot Dog Stand to when Mario eventually meets the newborn after [[flee]]ing from or losing to the Iron Adonis Twins. Initially, Yoshi is green, has a red mohawk, and wears orange pants with white polka dots (giving it a [[Yoshi's Egg]]-like pattern) and a pair of his species' signature boots. While in his egg, however, Yoshi's color scheme changes every few minutes, as shown in the chart below. If more than twenty minutes pass before Yoshi hatches, the cycle restarts. Each coloration is for aesthetic purposes only, and will stay the same for the rest of the game upon Yoshi's hatching. | |||

* | *As stated above, Yoshi's Glitz Pit origins resulted in him calling [[Mario]] by the name "Gonzales" throughout the whole course of ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'', except for six times. Although the use of "Mario" in the ending was deliberate and even played somewhat of a role in Yoshi's character development, the other listings were likely a mistake on the developers' part. In the Nintendo Switch remake, these are corrected so that Yoshi always calls him Gonzales. These are the following times before the ending of the game that Yoshi calls Mario by his actual name in the original game: | ||
**In [[Grubba]]'s office when reading | **In [[Grubba]]'s office when reading his secret paper about the machine under the ring. | ||
** | **At [[Twilight Town]] when the [[Creepy Steeple|steeple]] bell rings, changing [[Mayor Dour]] into a [[pig]]. | ||

**At the very end of Chapter 5 when | **At the very end of Chapter 5 when the [[Pianta]]s say they are staying on Keelhaul Key. | ||
**If Mario brings him along to the top of | **If Mario brings him along to the top of [[Palace of Shadow Tower]] for the first time. | ||
* | *Yoshi is one of two [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]]s that can be seen outside battle in ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''; the other one is seen on the [[Excess Express]], as an adult. | ||
*[[Wonky]] in the Italian version of | *Yoshi is the only partner whose dialogue for approaching Bonetail in combat was slightly changed in the remake. | ||
**GameCube version: "Whoa! What a psycho!" | |||
**Nintendo Switch version: "Whoa! What a monster!" | |||
***Furthermore, when naming the Yoshi in the remake, the player is prompted to use the Nintendo Switch's internal keyboard as opposed to an in-game keyboard like in the original game. | |||
*During the 2nd fight with [[Doopliss]], after defeating [[Goombella]], [[Koops]], and [[Flurrie]], Yoshi will appear, but, no matter what his nickname is, his enemy name is always "[[Yoshi]]". | |||
*[[Wonky]] in the Italian version of ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'' refers to Yoshi specifically as a ''Miniyoshi'', further explaining that Miniyoshis are "''Yoshis just hatched from the eggs''". This aligns with the character's Japanese name, which is identical to a [[Baby Yoshi]], along with other localizations and in-game text in the English version referring to him as a "newborn Yoshi baby". The name "Mini-Yoshi" was given for his [[trophy (Super Smash Bros. series)|trophy]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]''. | |||
**Additionally, the Player's Guide for the game first refers to the character as "a Mini-Yoshi." | |||
