When used, | When used, Yoshi sticks his tongue out, pulling in and swallowing any enemy touched nearby, causing around 7% damage and turning them into an egg for a few seconds. The amount of time that the enemy remains in the egg is determined by how much damage they have. While trapped in an egg, one is open to attacks, although they cannot be knocked back, and only sustain half the damage from attacks while in an egg (similar to being [[frozen]]). Tilting the control stick rapidly back and forth and mashing buttons will help the victim escape the egg more quickly. | ||
It is important to note that Yoshi has a few [[armor]] frames in this move from the second his tongue latches onto another character to the moment the egg is laid. This is useful for 4-player battles, as the attack itself only affects one opponent, so Yoshi would potentially be vulnerable - the resistance negates that vulnerability. Another important aspect of this move is that it acts as an aerial grab. The only other aerial grabs are [[Ganondorf]]'s [[Flame Choke]] and [[Dark Dive]], [[Bowser]]'s [[Koopa Klaw]], [[Diddy Kong]]'s [[Monkey Flip]], [[Captain Falcon]]'s [[Falcon Dive]], [[Mewtwo]]'s [[Confusion]], [[Kirby]] and [[King Dedede]]'s [[Inhale]], | It is important to note that Yoshi has a few [[armor]] frames in this move from the second his tongue latches onto another character to the moment the egg is laid.

Egg Lay can be used in an attempt to put the opponent off-stage, but unlike suicide techniques, such as Koopa Klaw and the [[Swallowcide]], opponents can usually break out well before they make it below the stage, even at higher [[percent]]s; the opponent also remains in full control of their horizontal movement while egged, so unless they are already far offstage they should not be falling past it. | Egg Lay can be used in an attempt to put the opponent off-stage, but unlike suicide techniques, such as Koopa Klaw and the [[Swallowcide]], opponents can usually break out well before they make it below the stage, even at higher [[percent]]s; the opponent also remains in full control of their horizontal movement while egged, so unless they are already far offstage they should not be falling past it. | ||
