| '''Yoshi''' is the {{wp|Velociraptor}}-type [[dinosaur]] "royal pet" of [[President Koopa]] in the 1993 [[Super Mario Bros. (film)|''Super Mario Bros.'' film]]. Unlike most other inhabitants of [[Dinohattan]], he retained his original reptilian form. He is inspired by [[Yoshi]], but with the film's artistic liberties. Like his video game counterpart, he possesses a strong and long tongue that he can manipulate objects with.

| It is established that Koopa has had Yoshi as a pet for some time. Under Koopa's ownership, Yoshi is chained up at the neck in his own room where he has experienced physical abuse and was derisively referred to as a "throwback". Upon [[Princess Daisy (film character)|Daisy]]'s capture, she was held in the same room that Yoshi resided in. Daisy, though wary at first, befriends Yoshi as Koopa introduces the two formally. He warns Daisy to not move her "hands around like a wounded animal" around Yoshi. During this same conversation, Yoshi attempts to lick Koopa's legs and a disgusted Koopa kicks him in the face. Once they're alone together, Daisy sympathizes with Yoshi and his attempts to bite through his chain.

| Later, [[Lena]] attempts to murder Daisy wielding a knife but is stopped by Yoshi's long tongue that pulls her towards him. Lena stabs Yoshi, giving Daisy enough time to escape out of the room. During Daisy's first meeting with [[King (film character)|her father]] in [[Devo 4]], a wounded but unchained Yoshi enters the room with the knife still lodged into his neck region. Daisy helps him remove the knife from his body. He reappears alongside Daisy in the film's finale, to bid [[Mario (film character)|Mario]] and [[Luigi (film character)|Luigi]] good bye before they jump through the portal back to [[Brooklyn]], [[New York]].
