History
Super Mario series
New Super Mario Bros. Wii
Yellow Toad, supposedly nicknamed Ala-Gold by Nintendo developers[1] and Wolley by IGN forum members[2], appears in New Super Mario Bros. Wii for the first time as a main hero and a playable character. The game begins as Princess Peach's birthday is being celebrated by the princess herself, the Mario Bros., Blue Toad, and Yellow Toad. During the festivities, a massive cake is brought into the castle. Immediately, Bowser Jr. and the Koopalings emerge and they kidnap Peach. Yellow Toad bravely follows closely behind the two Mario Bros. (with Blue Toad behind him) as they set off on a quest to save Princess Peach.
In the end of the game, Yellow Toad can be seen riding a hot air balloon alongside Blue Toad and Luigi (however the latter has his own balloon). Once Luigi allows Mario and Princess Peach to ride in his balloon, they soon take off before he could get it causing him to be left behind. Fortunately, the two Toads invited Luigi to ride in their balloon for the journey back to Princess Peach's Castle.
Characteristics
Unlike the other Toads in the game (the exception being Blue Toad), Yellow Toad is shown to be an extremely noble character as seen in the intro of New Super Mario Bros. Wii where he ran right after the Mario Bros. to help them on their quest to save Princess Peach. He even went on to fighting the several bosses in the game including Bowser himself at the end.
In comparison to Blue Toad, Yellow Toad has a much higher pitched voice that is very much like the voice that the Yellow Toad of the Toad Brigade had in Super Mario Galaxy where he also sounded higher pitched in comparison to the other Toads in the game.
Powers and Abilities
Throughout the game, Yellow Toad is shown to be able to perform several moves that the Mario Bros. have used in the past such as the ground pound, spin jump and even the wall kick. He is also able to use the power ups in this game, including the new Propeller Mushroom and the Penguin Suit. All of these power ups make Yellow Toad's coloration change to his preferred choice of color, yellow.

- European Official Site Bio: "As loyal servants to the Mushroom Kingdom throne, there's no way the Toads are about to sit back and watch Bowser and Co. bring their unsavory schemes to fruition. Toads have aided Mario on plenty of adventures in the past, but this time around they're not just letting Mario know the princess is in another castle - they're coming along for the ride!"

- Wolley, the name IGN forum members refer Yellow Toad as, is 'yellow' spelled backwards.
