'''Egg Throw''' is [[Yoshi]]'s [[Up B]] move in all three of the [[smash]] installments. Yoshi launches an [[egg]] upwards in an arc, which can be angled along a variety of trajectories, hitting anywhere from far horizontally in front of Yoshi to slightly behind and above Yoshi. The egg explodes upon contact or after moving along for a set air-time. Yoshi's Up B is fairly unique in that it is not a triple jump, does not noticeably aid in [[recovery]], and does not put Yoshi into a state of helplessness. In ''[[SSBB]]'', this is changed, and it does help with recovery. Even in Brawl, this move does not make Yoshi helpless.


Starting in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'', Yoshi would [[Egg Lay|eat enemies to turn them into eggs]] and then throw the eggs at other enemies. The explosions of the Eggs seen in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' are based on Yoshi's Egg toss in ''[[Yoshi's Story]]'' where the Eggs had larger explosions the happier Yoshi was.
