Yoshi's design in the Super Smash Bros. series is similar to the older style used in his games predating Super Mario 64. His shield is an egg as opposed to a bubble (Instead of shrinking, Yoshi's egg-shield turns steadily darker until he can no longer hold it out), and he lacks a true third jump, though he still can jump higher and stay in the air longer by a rapid movement of feet. Despite his lack of a third jump, his flutter jump is the largest second jump in the game. Other second jumps that come close to Yoshi's flutter jump are Kirby, Ness, Mewtwo, Jigglypuff, and Princess Peach. The flutter jump also gives Yoshi resistance to being knocked away. His air dodge in Melee can substitute as a third jump. In both games, Yoshi is a fast and heavy character with a unique playstyle and strong jumping ability. His symbol is a Yoshi Egg.

His trademark moves are centered around eggs. He can swallow opponents and lay them in eggs, and can throw explosive eggs from an inexhaustible supply. Melee introduced the "Egg Roll", in which he rolls around in a fast-moving egg. This can be a very powerful move if used correctly. The Egg Roll was copied to Mario Power Tennis as a Defensive Shot, which made Yoshi change colors. It also reveals that Yoshi uses his tail as his main form of physical attack. He uses it in a large number of his attacks including his powerful downward smash.

In the third installment of the series, Super Smash Bros. Brawl, a Yoshi's Island stage has been shown (this time, based on Super Mario World 2 rather than Yoshi's Story as in the previous installments), but Yoshi himself has not been explicitly confirmed to be in the game yet. On the June 4th update on the official Super Smash Bros. Brawl website a new music score known as "Yoshi's Story: End" was added to the list of music from the game, complete with Yoshi's "egg" symbol, further speculatng that Yoshi will be in Brawl.

Recently, there has also been a Yoshi's Island stage announced for Brawl (with changing seasons, confirming the Winter Yoshi's Island stage will actually be in the game).
