| Yoshi ranks 33rd out of 41 on the [[Project M#Tier list|official]] [[tier list]] at the top of the D tier. This is a significant drop from his ''Melee'' standing at 10th out of 26, however is less of a drop compared to ''Brawl'', where he placed 27th out of 38.

| Yoshi is a heavy, yet very mobile fighter with many great offensive and defensive options, a solid [[combo]] game, and a versatile [[projectile]]; despite being heavy, however, Yoshi is rather weak for his weight, being among the weakest of the heavyweights, and he does not have as many (if any) finishers compared to other heavyweights (ie {{PM|Ganondorf}}). Yoshi has two unique features in his moveset: his [[shield]] and his [[double jump]]. Yoshi's shield does not function as normal shields do: upon shielding, Yoshi encases himself in an egg. As the shield depletes from damage or time, it does not shrink, changing color instead. This makes Yoshi impossible to [[shield stab]] and grants Yoshi the ability to [[parry]], blocking attacks on the frame they hit and being able to counter instantly. Yoshi is also completely immune to [[shieldstun]] past the normal [[hitlag]] of the move. Yoshi's midair jump is also unique. It is delayed, like {{PM|Peach}}'s or {{PM|Ness}}' second jump, enabling [[double jump canceling]], rising aerials, and enhancing mobility options in the air. It also features subtractive [[armor]], letting Yoshi use it through moves that do not deal enough knockback. This allows Yoshi to [[double jump cancel counter]] or use the jump as a defensive option. Many of Yoshi's attacks utilize his long tail, giving them great reach. He also has great aerials, with his forward being a meteor smash, down being a heavy damage dealer, and neutral and up both being able to [[KO]]. His [[Egg Throw]] has great range and is hard to predict with how widely it can be angled. It serves as a great [[edge guard]]ing or comboing tool. | | Yoshi is a very mobile fighter with many great offensive and defensive options, a solid [[combo]] game, and a versatile [[projectile]].

| However, Yoshi has one huge weakness. Like {{PM|Jigglypuff}}, he lacks a recovery up special but unlike other characters, he lacks a recovery special move, making unexpected ventures offstage result in falls very often. While Yoshi's double jump is armored and can travel a long distance, Yoshi does not get it back upon being put into hitstun, differing from normal [[recoveries]] and making Yoshi very easy to [[gimp]] once his jump is gone. This is especially detrimental due to his heavy reliance on his midair jump for many maneuvers and techniques on stage. If Yoshi is hit out of his jump while on stage or trades while using a double jump canceled aerial, he is almost certain to be KO'd. | | However, Yoshi has one huge weakness.

| ==Changes from ''Melee'' to PM== | | ===Changes from ''Melee'' to PM=== |
| ===Aesthetics===
| | *{{buff|Shield works just as in ''Smash 64'', as Yoshi can now jump [[out of shield]] like all other characters, greatly expanding his defensive options and giving him a better time handling [[pressure]]. This also allows him to [[parry]] attacks like in ''Smash 64''.}} |
| *{{change|The egg formed via Yoshi's shield and Egg Roll also now matches Yoshi's selected colour, instead of always being green. As of 3.5, the eggs used in Egg Throw change to match Yoshi's current color as well.}} | | *{{buff|Forward tilt, down tilt, back aerial and up aerial retain their formats from ''Brawl'', but inflict higher damage and have better reach.}} |
| | |
| ===Attributes===
| |
| *{{buff|Midair jump not only has its knockback reduction armor from ''Melee'', but has a slightly higher knockback threshold as well, improving Yoshi's recovery. [[Double-jump cancel]]ing is also optional, like with Ness and Lucas: holding the jump button will make Yoshi perform a rising aerial instead.}} | | *{{buff|Midair jump not only has its knockback reduction armor from ''Melee'', but has a slightly higher knockback threshold as well, improving Yoshi's recovery.

| | *{{buff|Down throw has slightly less [[ending lag]], allowing Yoshi to followup into aerial attacks quicker and more easily.}} |
| *{{buff|[[Rolling]] animation has slightly increased in speed.}} | | *{{buff|[[Rolling]] animation has slightly increased in speed.}} |
|
| |
| ===Ground Attacks===
| |
| *{{buff|Yoshi retains his ''Brawl'' forward tilt although it has the power of his ''Melee'' forward tilt making it a better spacing move.}}
| |
| *{{buff|[[Up tilt]] is now a headbutt similar to its ''Smash 64'' counterpart. Compared to his ''Melee'' up tilt, it has less startup (frame 8 → 6) and ending lag (frame 30 → 24) and it has more range making it better at juggling and initiating aerial [[combo]]s at low percentages. It also deals more knockback (72 (base), 40 (scaling) → 36/112) improving its KO potential.}}
| |
| *{{nerf|Up tilt deals less damage (10% → 9% (clean), 7% (late)).}}
| |
| *{{buff|Dash attack's clean hit deals more damage (9% → 11%).}}
| |
| *{{nerf|Dash attack's late hit deals less damage (8% → 7%).}}
| |
| *{{buff|Forward smash has its [[PAL]] strength dealing more damage (16% → 17%) and having higher knockback scaling (94 → 98).}}
| |
| *{{buff|Up smash deals more damage (14% → 16%) improving its KO potential despite its lower knockback scaling (108 → 101).}}
| |
| *{{buff|The front hit of down smash has more knockback scaling (75/60 → 80) while the back hit deals more damage (12% → 13%).}}
| |
| *{{nerf|The back hit has less knockback scaling (75/80 → 64) hindering its KO potential.}}
| |
|
| |
| ===Aerial Attacks===
| |
| *{{buff|Forward aerial has less startup lag (frame 19 → 16) and it has a longer initial auto-cancel window (frames 1-4 → 1-7).}}
| |
| *{{nerf|Forward aerial has less knockback scaling (100 → 80).}}
| |
| *{{buff|Back aerial deals more damage due to changes to [[stale-move negation]] (20% → 22%) and the final hit has higher base knockback (40 → 50).}}
| |
| *{{nerf|Back aerial's second and third hits have more base knockback (10 → 20) making them connect less reliably.}}
| |
| *{{buff|Down aerial has less startup (frame 18 → 16) and landing lag (26 frames → 24).}}
| |
| *{{nerf|Down aerial deals much less damage (4% → 3% (loop hits), 53% → 38% (total)).}}
| |
|
| |
| ===Grab and Throws===
| |
| *{{buff|[[Grab]] has slightly faster startup (frame 18 → 17) and both standing and dash grab have less ending lag (frame 79 (standing), frame 70 (dash) → frame 63 (both)). Yoshi also retains his pivot grab from ''Brawl'' although it has more ending lag due to its ending lag animation playing at 0.75x its normal speed (frame 36 → 41).}}
| |
| *{{buff|All throws except for up throw deal more damage (6% → 7% (forward/back), 4% → 6% (down)). Forward and back throws also launch opponents at a lower angle (45° → 40°).}}
| |
| *{{buff|Down throw has slightly less ending lag and has less knockback (120 (base), 20 (scaling) → 90/25), allowing Yoshi to followup into aerial attacks quicker and more easily.}}
| |
|
| |
| ===Special Moves===
| |
| *{{buff|[[Egg Roll]] starts earlier and has significantly less ending lag. It also no longer enforces [[helplessness]], instead making Yoshi just lose his midair jump.}} | | *{{buff|[[Egg Roll]] starts earlier and has significantly less ending lag. It also no longer enforces [[helplessness]], instead making Yoshi just lose his midair jump.}} |
| | *{{buff|[[Yoshi Bomb]] retains its jumping hitbox from ''Brawl'', leading more easily into the fall, allowing more consistent damage racking from the move. The stars produced upon landing are also much stronger in knockback and damage.}} |
| *{{nerf|Egg Roll grants less horizontal distance when used in midair.}} | | *{{nerf|Egg Roll grants less horizontal distance when used in midair.}} |
| *{{buff|The Eggs from [[Egg Throw]] now last until they either hit something or go off screen.}} | | *{{change|[[Up tilt]] reverted to its incarnation from ''Smash 64''. Compared to his ''Melee'' up tilt, it deals weaker damage with low base knockback, but is better at juggling and initiating aerial [[combo]]s at low percentages. Unlike the ''Smash 64'' version, it can now KO at high percentages.}} |
| *{{buff|[[Yoshi Bomb]] retains its jumping hitbox from ''Brawl'', leading more easily into the fall, allowing more consistent damage racking from the move. The stars produced upon landing are also much stronger in knockback and damage. The grounded version has more knockback scaling (98 → 100) while the aerial version deals more damage (14% → 16%).}} | | *{{change|Yoshi now has purple, orange, black and white recolors in addition to the six previous ones, all being taken from the ''Yoshi's Island'' games. The egg formed via Yoshi's shield and Egg Roll also now matches Yoshi's selected colour, instead of always being green.}} |

| ===Project+===
| |
| Yoshi received a new Brown color. ''[[Project +]]'' also adds two new alternate costumes for Yoshi, the first being based on Dorrie's appearance in ''Super Mario Odyssey'', with the Red Team recolor specifically referencing Plessie from ''Super Mario 3D World'', while the green is based on Gobblegut, with a hat resembling Professor Layton. The purple costume is based on the Purple Dorrie that sell hats in ''Super Mario Odyssey''. The third costume is based on the Yoshi Kid from ''Paper Mario: Thousand Year Door'' and its Nintendo Switch remake, now as an adult, and has taken Mario's wrestling name: The Great Gonzales. Extra details include the fact that the jackets of each version of the costume matches the "diaper" Yoshi Kid normally wears, and the zipper of the jackets are based on the skulls of the game's [[mariowiki:Dry Bones|Dry Bones]] and their variants, with the pink alt's resembling a [[mariowiki:Red Bones|Red Bones]] and the black alt's resembling a [[mariowiki:Dull Bones|Dull Bones]]. The alternate colors of the Yoshi Kid costume reference the different forms the character can take on depending on how long it takes between recruiting his egg and either losing or forfeiting to the [[mariowiki:Iron Adonis Twins|Iron Adonis Twins]], a pair of [[mariowiki:Iron Cleft|Iron Clefts]] fought in the [[mariowiki:Glitz Pit|Glitz Pit]] in the game's third chapter. In that game, his different forms appear within the time frames of 0-6 minutes, 15-18 minutes, 9-12 minutes, 18-19 minutes, and 19-20 minutes, respectively, with the red alt that takes 6-9 minutes and the orange alt that takes 12-15 minutes being absent. In 3.0, the Purple and Orange Yoshi recolors were removed to make way for the Great Gonzales costumes.
