Egg Roll is a special move used by Yoshi. It is a smash B move. The executor can steer it by pressing left or right, and stop the attack by pressing B again. In Melee, it can be used to increase Yoshi's horizontal recovery. It is easily countered, but acts as an efficient way to pass an edgeguarder (when Yoshi is off-stage), but if the opponent can reach the egg's height and hit Yoshi it is essentially followed by a death.
In Brawl, Yoshi's Egg Roll has higher priority. However, Yoshi's air speed is decreased while using the Egg Roll, making it useless as a recovery move. Also, it is notoriously easy to Self-destruct with Egg Roll in Brawl, as Yoshi becomes Helpless if used in midair, and running off platforms with Egg Roll is all to easy to do.
The move seems to be unique to the Super Smash Bros. series, but may be based off of Yoshi's Story where upon eating a Turbo Tulip, Yoshi could encase himself into an egg and fling himself at enemies. A Similar technique would later appear in Mario Power Tennis and Mario Strikers Charged.
