Yoshi's Story is a very basic, neutral stage, with a layout similar in structure to {{SSBM|Battlefield}}. The main platform is primarily flat then slightly slopes downwards at the edges to the left and right. There are three [[soft platform]]s: one on the left and right, and a higher one in the middle, though unlike on Battlefield, the left and right platforms are positioned more outwards, slightly above the [[blastline]]. Another major difference from Battlefield is the main platform's walls extend downwards past the blastline, thus players cannot go underneath the stage when recovering. Yoshi's Story's blast lines are much closer to the stage than in other tournament legal stages, meaning that KOs occur more easily.

The stage also features a small floating cloud, colloquially dubbed "Randall" (see below). Additionally, there are [[Shy Guy]]s which fly around in groups of 1-6 in a line. If [[food]] is enabled in the items menu, the Shy Guys will be holding food which they release onto the stage when hit. Even when food is not present, Shy Guys can affect gameplay: they will interfere with projectiles, and moves such as [[Green Missile]] and [[Raptor Boost]], and they are useful for countering [[stale-move negation]] through hitting them with attacks not commonly used.

In ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', the [[Ω form]] and [[Battlefield form]] are similar to the layout of the normal form of this stage; however, the main platform is completely flat, and both the main platform and the three soft platforms have been resized to match {{SSBU|Final Destination}} and {{SSBU|Battlefield}}, respectively. The main platform no longer extends below the blast line, but is now suspended in the air. Randall the Cloud, Pak E. Derm, and Shy Guys are also absent. On the Battlefield form the soft platforms to the left and right are moved more inwards to match Battlefield's layout.

In ''Yoshi's Story'', {{s|mariowiki|Pak E. Derm}} occasionally prevents Yoshi from proceeding, but can be stunned with a Ground Pound. He can be seen wandering in the background of this stage. Also in ''Yoshi's Story'' are {{s|mariowiki|Propeller Shy Guy}}s (also known as Fly Guys) who hold {{s|mariowiki|fruit}} while flying around, which Yoshi can eat before they fly away. In this stage, Propeller Shy Guys carry fruit and will drop it after being attacked.

The lack of intrusive stage elements aside from the moving cloud and the Shy Guys makes this a neutral stage for tournaments. Its simple yet versatile layout, smaller blast zones, and general smaller size make it perfect for aggressive play. This stage is often cited as one of {{SSBM|Marth}}'s best stages, due to its smaller size and platform height complementing his [[disjoint]]ed hitboxes and long range. This stage is also often regarded as one of {{SSBM|Fox}}'s best stages because of its small [[blast zone]]s, which can KO an enemy with an [[up-smash]] or [[up throw]] to [[up-air]] at exceedingly low percents. {{SSBM|Falco}}  and {{SSBM|Sheik}} are also noted for having better matchups on this stage for its emphasis on close quarters combat and its accessible platforms respectively. Some characters that tend to do worse on Yoshi's Story include {{SSBM|Jigglypuff}}, {{SSBM|Peach}}, and {{SSBM|Captain Falcon}}. Because of Yoshi's Story's small blast zones and more compact layout, defensive characters like Peach and Puff find it harder to make space between them and their opponent and find it easier to die earlier. Yoshi's Story poses a serious issue to Jigglypuff, in particular, against Fox and Marth who often use it as a counterpick to the character, second often to {{SSBM|Final Destination}}. While the Yoshi's Story counterpick isn't as polarizing to Falcon as [[Fountain of Dreams]] or FD, the smaller stage size often poses an issue when Falcon players want to utilize his extreme speed to create dangerous aggressive mixups from across the stage.

This stage has been downgraded into a counterpick stage, or sometimes even outright banned. This is due to the very low ceiling combined with a top platform causing early kills, the slight slopes that are on the edges of the stage, as well as its similarity to {{SSBU|Battlefield}}. Turning hazards off removes the Fly Guys and Randall the cloud, making most tournaments prefer this version of the stage.

*The [[Moon]] and the [[Squid Sisters]] cannot be summoned by [[Assist Trophy]] on this stage.

*{{SSBU|Steve}} picks up wool blocks instead of dirt blocks on this stage.
