| '''Egg Roll''' is the [[side special move]] of [[Yoshi]]. The player can steer it by scrolling the control stick left or right, and stop the [[attack]] by pressing the special button again to break the egg. In ''[[Melee]]'', it can be used to increase Yoshi's horizontal recovery. It is easily countered, but acts as an efficient way to pass an edgeguarder (when Yoshi is off-stage), but if the opponent can reach the egg's height and hit Yoshi it is essentially followed by a death. If preferred, the player controlling the move may wish to hold the special button. This makes it more difficult to control, but allows more damage.

| In ''[[Brawl]]'', while the move has potent [[momentum canceling]] properties, Yoshi's air speed is massively decreased while using it, making it useless as a recovery move; since Yoshi then becomes [[helpless]] after ending the move in the air, it winds up not being useful for such a purpose. The move invoking helplessness also makes it very easy to [[self-destruct]] with.

| The move seems to be unique to the [[Super Smash Bros. (universe)|Super Smash Bros. series]], but may be based on ''[[Yoshi's Story]]'' where upon eating a Turbo Tulip, Yoshi could encase himself into an egg and fling himself at enemies or out-of-reach objects. The Egg Roll would later appear in ''Mario Power Tennis'' and ''Mario Strikers Charged''.
