'''Yoshi's Island''' ({{ja|ヨッシーアイランド|Yosshī Airando}}, ''Yoshi Island'') is a stage in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' and a [[familiar stage]] in {{for3ds}} and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. It could be considered the spiritual successor to [[Yoshi's Story]] from ''Melee'', due to a similar structure and stage elements with a similar behavior and function.

==Stage layout==
[[File:Yoshi's Island (SSBB)2.jpg|thumb|left|The Blarggwich and Fly Guys in ''Brawl''.]]
There is a main, slightly curved platform whose walls reach the bottom [[blast line]]. A long [[soft platform]] floats over it, and periodically tilts during play.


==Stage overview==
A '''{{s|mariowiki|Blarggwich}}''' randomly rises from either of the side pits, creating a temporary platform that can save recovering characters. Some '''[[Fly Guy]]s''' also randomly descend, carrying [[food]] unless it is turned off in the [[Item Switch]]. They can be hit and defeated by attacks, dropping their baggage, and are particularly prone to intercept projectiles.

A '''{{s|mariowiki|Blarggwich}}''' randomly rises from either of the side pits, creating a temporary platform that can save recovering characters. It is commonly referred to as the '''Support Ghost''', or '''Randall''' due to its similarity to [[Randall the Cloud]] from [[Yoshi's Story]] in ''Melee''.

The stage will also [[Time change|change]] between the four seasons during the match, playing a sound every time (no sound is played in Smash 3DS). These changes do not affect the gameplay in any way. The season at the start of the match is chosen randomly.

===Ω forms and Battlefield form===
==Ω Form==
In ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'', the [[Ω form]] of the stage, the stage will cycle through the seasons as normal; however, no sound effects will play, and only the Spring/Summer mix of the music will be heard. The base is flat, and the thin platform, the Blarggwich, and Fly Guys are absent.

In ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', the Ω form and [[Battlefield form]] are similar to ''SSB4'''s Ω form; however, the stages do not extend below the blast line, and they are resized and reshaped to match {{SSBU|Final Destination}} and {{SSBU|Battlefield}}, respectively. In the Battlefield form, the top [[soft platform]] resembles the green platform on top of Blarggwiches, and the two bottom ones resemble the red soft platform of the normal form.

===Hazards Off===
==In [[competitive play]]==
With hazards off in ''Ultimate'', the Fly Guys and Blarggwich don't appear, and the soft platform doesn't tilt. The seasons still change as usual.
Yoshi's Island is usually a starter stage in most tournaments due to it lacking overly disruptive features, though it is sometimes a [[counterpick]]. The Shy Guys can disrupt projectiles such as [[Falco]]'s [[Blaster]]s, and can [[gimp]] [[Ness]]'s and [[Lucas]]'s [[PK Thunder]] recovery. The walls on the side of the main platform prevent characters such as {{SSBB|Meta Knight}} and {{SSBB|Pit}} from [[gliding]] underneath the stage and make it more difficult for characters to be [[stage spike]]d. {{SSBB|Donkey Kong}} does notoriously well here, as the tilted ledges allow him to climb back onstage earlier when using ledge drop to jump and [[Spinning Kong]]: performing this causes Donkey Kong to retain his ledge [[intangibility]] frames until the move ends. The Blarggwich can also aid characters' recoveries by acting as a platform to land on, but if Ness and Lucas are trapped between it and the stage they will not be able to recover.

This stage is based on ''{{S|mariowiki|Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island}}'', which marked [[Yoshi]]'s first appearance as a standalone playable character. ''Yoshi's Island'' has very distinctive graphics, designed to look like pastel drawings.

{{s|mariowiki|Blarggwich}}es are ghostly entities that act as moving platforms, which Yoshi has to ride in certain stages. The soft platform above the stage represents a general platform design seen all throughout ''Yoshi's Island'', while the see-saw movement pattern of it loosely resembles the Super FX tilting effects used for a variety of objects throughout the source game, particularly the animation of the spiked flipping platforms in {{S|mariowiki|Salvo the Slime's Castle}}, though the functionality is very different.

[[Fly Guy]]s are one of the many varieties of [[Shy Guy]] in the game. They fly around carrying items, dropping them when attacked. Some float in a specific path, while others stay onscreen for a limited time before fleeing.

Each season represents specific levels, and several other graphic elements in this stage are directly taken from the source game: the summer season somewhat resembles the levels of {{S|mariowiki|Hit That Switch!!}} and {{S|mariowiki|Visit Koopa and Para-Koopa}}, the autumn season might been inspired by the levels {{S|mariowiki|GO! GO! MARIO!!}} and {{S|mariowiki|Chomp Rock Zone}}, and the winter season looks similar to levels {{S|mariowiki|Ride The Ski Lifts}} and also {{S|mariowiki|Danger - Icy Conditions Ahead}}. {{S|mariowiki|Chomp}}s and {{s|mariowiki|Goonie}}s are recurring enemies, with the prior's large appearance on the stage resembling the {{S|mariowiki|Chomp Shark}}s which chase Yoshi and destroy terrain in {{S|mariowiki|Marching Milde's Fort}} and {{S|mariowiki|KEEP MOVING!!!!}}, and the smiling flowers which appear in the Summer version resemble the collectible {{s|mariowiki|Smiley Flower}}s which contribute to the final score in each level. A moon can be seen off-screen, only visible without mods through either [[Olimar]]'s Final Smash or ''Ultimate'''s camera - this moon was the location of the battle against {{iw|mariowiki|World 5|Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island}}'s boss {{s|mariowiki|Raphael the Raven}}, and can also be seen in the final boss battle against Baby [[Bowser]].

==Tournament legality==
In ''Brawl'', Yoshi's Island is a starter stage in the vast majority of tournaments, primarily due to a lack of other, more neutral stages. The Shy Guys fly into random positions, and can disrupt projectiles, such as [[Falco]]'s {{b|Blaster|Falco}}. The walls on the side of the main platform prevent characters such as {{SSBB|Meta Knight}} and {{SSBB|Pit}} from [[gliding]] underneath the stage and make it more difficult for characters to be [[stage spike]]d.  The Blarggwich can also aid characters' recoveries by acting as a platform to land on; however, its arrival and departure is random, and comes without any prior indication, preventing players from doing so consistently. {{SSBB|Ness}} and {{SSBB|Lucas}} are especially disadvantaged on this stage due to its hazards, as both the Shy Guys and Blarggwich can intercept their recoveries at random with almost no time to react. {{SSBB|Donkey Kong}} does notoriously well here, as the tilted ledges allow him to easily perform a completely invincible [[Spinning Kong]] by dropping ledge, jumping, and immediately pressing up-B while holding towards the stage.
In ''Ultimate'', Yoshi's Island is a counterpick in most stagelists. Turning off stage hazards removes the Shy Guys and Blarggwich; however, the slants in the middle of the stage affect [[jab lock]]s and projectiles, while also making smaller characters even more difficult to hit. Additionally, the steep slants at the edges of the stage affect ledge trapping, especially with regards to 2-framing, and the horizontal blast zones are rather close to the stage.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*This is the third stage in the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|series]] that is named "Yoshi's Island". However, it is the first of these to be based on the game ''Yoshi's Island''.
*While using {{SSBB|Olimar}}'s [[Final Smash]], [[End of Day]], a drawing of a moon can be seen in the sky. This moon was the location of the battle against [[supermariowiki:World 5 (Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island)|World 5]] boss {{s|mariowiki|Raphael the Raven}} in ''Yoshi's Island''.
*This is the third stage in the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|series]] that has acquired the name "Yoshi's Island".
*The Blarggwich can be seen off-screen by pausing while it isn't supporting the characters.
*The Blarggwich can be seen off-screen by pausing while it isn't supporting the characters.
*This is the only stage in ''Brawl'' from {{uv|Mario}} or any of its sub-universes to not be restricted in any tournament, as [[Delfino Plaza]], the only other ''Mario''-related stage that is not [[banned stage|banned]], is almost always a counterpick.
*This is the only new stage from one of the ''[[Mario (universe)|Mario]]'' sub-universes in ''Brawl'' not to be [[banned stage|banned]] from any tournaments, and is the only ''Mario''-related stage to be considered "neutral" - that is, can be used anytime ([[Delfino Plaza]] is almost always a counter-pick, [[Luigi's Mansion]] and ''Melee'''s {{SSBM|Yoshi's Island}} and [[Rainbow Cruise]] are either banned or counter-picks depending on the region (though the former has been banned more often in recent times), and all the others are usually banned).
*There is an extra track that can play in this stage. The ''Obstacle Course'' track that is listed in "My Music" and in the [[Sound Test]] is the variation that plays in the spring and summer seasons. There is another variation that plays during autumn and winter, but it is not available in the Sound Test, though it is available in the OST rip. However, in {{for3ds}}, both versions of Obstacle Course are in the sound test, as ''Obstacle Course (Spring / Summer)'' and ''Obstacle Course (Autumn / Winter)''. In {{forwiiu}}, meanwhile, the songs play back to back.

*Oddly, one of the [[:File:YoshisIslandBrawlDebugError.jpg|pictures]] in the press kit for ''Ultimate'' of this stage has text in top left that reads "<DEBUG> SEASON=SUMMER".
*This is the only version of Yoshi's Island that has never been renamed, as ''Smash 64'' and ''Melee''{{'}}s versions of Yoshi's Island are named "Super Happy Tree" and "Yoshi's Island (Melee)", respectively.
**Because of this, it and the Yoshi's Island stage from ''Melee'' are the only two stages to share the same name in ''Ultimate''. All other stages that share names, such as the "Kongo Jungle" stages from [[Kongo Jungle (SSB)|''Smash 64'']] and [[Kongo Jungle (SSBM)|''Melee'']], were renamed for disambiguation purposes. However, in the original Japanese version of ''Ultimate'', the two Yoshi's Island stages in have different  names.
*In ''Ultimate'', there is a glitch involving the [[Smart Bomb]] that causes the music to stop playing. It is currently unknown, however, why this happens. It is also unknown if this glitch will work on other stages.
*In ''Ultimate'', this is one of the few stages where every [[Assist Trophy]] can appear.
*In ''Ultimate'', the following [[Poké Ball]] Pokémon can only be summoned on the Battlefield and Omega forms of this stage: [[Moltres]], [[Kyogre]], [[Palkia]], [[Giratina]], [[Arceus]], [[Victini]], [[Kyurem]], [[Dedenne]], [[Xerneas]], and [[Marshadow]].
**[[Lunala]] cannot be summoned at all on this stage.
