In the original ''Super Smash Bros.'', the move is called "Hip Drop" by Yoshi's in-game character profile, which was the standard name for the maneuver in the [[supermariowiki:Mario Party (series)|''Mario Party'' series]] at this time; elsewhere in the ''[[Mario (universe)|Mario]]'' and [[Yoshi (universe)|''Yoshi'' series]] the move is known as "Ground Pound". However, the move is listed as "Bomb" in the instruction booklet for ''Super Smash Bros'' | In the original ''Super Smash Bros.'', the move is called "Hip Drop" by Yoshi's in-game character profile, which was the standard name for the maneuver in the [[supermariowiki:Mario Party (series)|''Mario Party'' series]] at this time; elsewhere in the ''[[Mario (universe)|Mario]]'' and [[Yoshi (universe)|''Yoshi'' series]] the move is known as "Ground Pound". However, the move is listed as "Bomb" in the instruction booklet for ''Super Smash Bros'', which is likely an error; this causes it to share a name with [[Bomb (Link)|special]] [[Bomb (Samus)|moves]] of [[Link]] and [[Samus]], both of which coincidentally are also down special moves. | ||
The move was then named as the Yoshi Bomb in ''Melee'' and later games. This is an unsubstantiated choice; no move has ever been known as "Yoshi Bomb" in the ''Mario'' or ''Yoshi'' series, and the Japanese name for the move remains {{ja|ヒップドロップ|Hippu Doroppu}} (Hip Drop). In most in-depth Japanese sources, Luigi's new down throw in ''SSB4'' also shares this exact name which implies that it's the exact same technique. | The move was then named as the Yoshi Bomb in ''Melee'' and later games.
