Winged Yoshi

Winged Yoshi is the trademark power-up form of the Yoshis, dating back to their debut in Super Mario World. In this form, Yoshi gains wings and the power of flight.
In Super Mario World, this form could be accessed in one of two ways: by utilizing the Blue Koopa Troopa Shell power, or by grabbing Yoshi's Wings. The latter would incidentally turn any color Yoshi into a Blue Yoshi after finishing the current stage.
Winged Yoshis also made appearances in several early Yoshi puzzle games, such as Yoshi for the NES and Game Boy systems.
After a prolonged absence from the series, Winged Yoshi returns in the multiplayer mode of Super Mario 64 DS as Yoshi's answer to the other characters' Wing Cap powers.
