YOSHI - Featured Video
Rack Up Damage with Flutter Kick (Down Air Attack)
This attack is very powerful if the foe is directly beneath Yoshi. It can hit an opponent multiple times, so try your best to catch them right at the start of the attack for maximum damage!
Guard Yourself With All-round Egg Shield
Unlike other fighters, Yoshi's shield is an all-protecting egg. Even if the shield blocks attacks, it won't get smaller and Yoshi's body won't poke out from the shield.
Super-Armor with Mid-air Jumps
Yoshi's midair jump won't stop if a foe attacks Yoshi in the middle of it. It's more difficult to withstand attacks with high launching power, though, so be careful if your damage is high.
