'''Egg Throw''' ({{ja|たまご投げ|Tamagonage}}, ''Throw Eggs'') is [[Yoshi]]'s [[up special move]] in all four {{uv|Super Smash Bros.}} installments. When used, Yoshi launches an egg upwards in an arc, which can be angled along a variety of trajectories, hitting anywhere from far horizontally in front of Yoshi to slightly behind and above Yoshi. | |||
==Summary== | ==Summary== | ||
The trajectory of the egg can be controlled by where the [[control stick]] is tilted while Yoshi is in the throwing animation, and the distance can be controlled by how long the special button is held. The egg explodes upon contact or after moving along for a set air-time. Yoshi's up special is fairly unique in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' in that it is not a triple jump, does not noticeably aid in [[recovery]], and does not put Yoshi into a state of [[helpless]]ness. | The trajectory of the egg can be controlled by where the [[control stick]]/[[d-pad]] is tilted while Yoshi is in the throwing animation, and the distance can be controlled by how long the special button is held.

However, it does help with recovery in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', while still not causing helplessness. Yoshi can use Egg Throw many times in the air, gaining some height each time; however, the height he gets decreases each time the player uses it in the air, and he will continue to lose height until the move gives no height at all. Also, the Egg Throw's versatility was dampened substantially in ''Brawl'' by the fact that Yoshi is now forced to choose between certain egg "routes", as opposed to before when the eggs could end up anywhere. In ''Smash 4'', the egg throw now makes a rainbow trail. | ||

Starting in ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island}}'', Yoshi would [[Egg Lay|eat enemies to turn them into eggs]] and then throw the eggs at other enemies. The eggs would fly straight, bouncing off walls and skimming across water. In ''{{s|mariowiki|Yoshi's Story}}'', eggs stopped bouncing and instead exploded upon reaching the point of the aiming cursor; the size of the explosion was based on the Yoshi's happiness and color. Yoshi can carry six eggs at a time, though objects such as keys take up room. | |||

In the ''Smash Bros.'' series, thrown eggs arc due to gravity. The only time this occurs in a non-spinoff game is the final battle against Giant {{s|mariowiki|Baby Bowser}} in ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island}}'', where Yoshi throws giant eggs into the background; in all other instances eggs fly in straight lines, ignoring gravity. | In the ''Smash Bros.'' series, thrown eggs arc due to gravity.
