*[[Image:YoshiIcon(SSB).png|50px|right]]'''{{SSB|Yoshi}}''': Yoshi is a green dinosaur that Mario could ride on in ''Super Mario World''. Since then, Yoshi would gain his own line of games, and become a major member of the ''Mario'' universe. He is a member of the colorful Yoshi species that often protect their island on multiple occasions. In ''Smash 64'', Yoshi does not use his hands for combat, and instead relies on his head, tail, and feet. His [[neutral special]], [[Egg Lay]], is Yoshi's trademark ability,. where he swallows an opponent and turns them into an egg for a short period of time. Yoshi's [[up special]] is the [[Egg Throw]] from ''Yoshi's Island'', where he launches an egg upwards in an arc. This means that Yoshi is one of [[Jigglypuff (SSB)|two]] fighters where the up special does not aid in stage recovery. This is due to Yoshi having the best double jump in the game, being his flutter jump. His [[down special]] is his [[Yoshi Bomb]] attack from ''Yoshi's Island'', which is a ground pound attack.

*'''{{SSBM|Yoshi}}''' returns as a starter character and the sole character representing the ''Yoshi'' franchise. While he still resembles his appearance in ''Yoshi's Island'', he now looks more realistic, with mottled skin and a more dinosaur-like posture. He is able to turn himself into an egg and bowl through opponents on the ground as his new [[side special move]], the [[Egg Roll]]. Due to the addition of directional air dodges, Yoshi now has a slightly better recovery game. Yoshi's mixture of buffs and nerfs make him just as viable as his previous appearance.{{clear}}

*[[Image:YoshiIcon(SSBB).png|50px|right]]'''{{SSBB|Yoshi}}''': Yoshi was the last of the "[[Original 8]]" to be revealed as a returning character in ''Brawl''.  He has been visually modified to more accurately resemble his more recent appearances in newer ''Mario'' games starting with ''Super Mario Sunshine''. In addition to some old moves being modified (his [[Up B]], [[Egg Throw]], now also functions as a third jump), Yoshi also enters the fray with a brand new attack: his [[Final Smash]] is [[Super Dragon]], which is based off of the powers that Yoshi could obtain in ''Super Mario World'' by holding certain colors of Koopa shells in his mouth for extended periods of time. When the Final Smash is executed, Yoshi suddenly sprouts wings and can fly around for a short period of time, during which he can spew flames from his mouth with the press of a button.

On the final character select screen (after all characters are unlocked), Yoshi, despite being part of the [[Original 8]], doesn't appear in the top row in the spot between {{SSBB|Samus}} and {{SSBB|Kirby}}. Instead, he shares a column with fellow ''Mario'' side series characters {{SSBB|Donkey Kong}}, {{SSBB|Diddy Kong}}, and {{SSBB|Wario}}.
