| '''Egg Throw''' ({{ja|たまご投げ|Tamago Nage}}, ''Egg Throw'') is [[Yoshi]]'s [[up special move]]. When used, 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. | | '''Egg Throw''' ({{ja|たまご投げ}}, ''Tamagonage'' or ''Throw Eggs'') is [[Yoshi]]'s [[up special move]] in all three of the [[Super Smash Bros. (universe)|Super Smash Bros. 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. |

| ==Summary== | | ==Summary== |
| The trajectory of the egg can be controlled by where the [[control stick]] is tilted while Yoshi is in the throwing animation, and the distance can be controlled by how long the special button is held. The egg explodes upon contact or after moving along for a set air-time. Yoshi's up special is fairly unique in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' in that it is not a triple jump, does not noticeably aid in [[recovery]], and does not put Yoshi into a state of [[helpless]]ness.

|
| However, it does help with recovery in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', while still not causing helplessness. Yoshi can use Egg Throw many times in the air, gaining some height each time; however, the height he gets decreases each time the player uses it in the air, and he will continue to lose height until the move gives no height at all. Also, the Egg Throw's versatility was dampened substantially in ''Brawl'' by the fact that Yoshi is now forced to choose between certain egg "routes", as opposed to before when the eggs could end up anywhere. Additionally, it's possible for the egg's explosion to miss, even after the egg hitbox hits its target. In ''SSB4'' and ''Ultimate'', the egg throw makes a rainbow trail.

| In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', the eggs from Egg Throw now bounce on the ground.

| | 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 eggs would fly straight, bouncing off walls and skimming across water.

Yoshi is unable to throw eggs if he has none prepared. |

| ==Customization==
| | While the explosions of the eggs seen in Smash Bros. are based on the explosions in ''Yoshi's Story'', their obedience of gravity is unprecedented, with such behaviour only appearing in later spinoff games. |
| Special Move customization was added in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''. These are the variations:
| |
| {{CustomSet|Yoshi|Up|name1=Egg Throw|desc1=Lob an egg. You can set the angle of the throw with directional inputs.|name2=High Jump|desc2=Jump really high. In midair, you can use the move more than once.|name3=Timed Egg Throw|desc3=Lob an egg that goes right through opponents as it flies and then explodes.}}
| |
| # '''Egg Throw''': Default.
| |
| # '''High Jump''': Jumps higher into the air than the default, however does not throw an egg and restricts horizontal movement somewhat. Has very brief intangibility on startup, but not enough to properly protect Yoshi. As with the default, only the first 3 usages before touching the ground provide any vertical height (4 if started on the ground). Unlike the default, Yoshi will jump even if the move is used on the ground. This variation plays a "whoosh" sound effect. {{Main|Yoshi (SSB4)/Side special/Custom 1}}
| |
| # '''Timed Egg Throw''': Yoshi throws a considerably larger egg; however, it does not deal damage on contact, and instead produces a small explosion after a set amount of time, dealing 9% damage. The move has more startup and ending lag, as well as granting less height, making it much worse for recovering. {{Main|Yoshi (SSB4)/Side special/Custom 2}}

| ==Edge-canceled eggs== | | ==Manual Descriptions== |
| '''Edge-canceled eggs''' (acronymized as '''ECE''') is an [[advanced technique]] in ''SSB'', ''Melee'', and ''Brawl'' that acts as a form of [[planking]]. This technique involves letting go from an edge, either by flicking the [[control stick]] down or away, then [[double jump]] and immediately perform Egg Throw. If done correctly, Yoshi will grab the edge again, allowing the process to be repeated. Like all forms of planking, this technique is primarily used to abuse the [[intangibility]] frames gained from grabbing an edge, making it difficult to hit Yoshi with both the intangibility and the pressure from the eggs. This technique requires precise timing, as being too slow will force Yoshi to either land on the [[stage]] or jump clear over the edge and be vulnerable. The technique is effectively removed in ''Smash 4'' due to the universal changes that nerfed planking as a strategy.

| ===Reverse Edge-canceled eggs=== | | ===''[[Melee]]'' Manual Description=== |
| This reverse variant (acronymized as '''RECE''') involves using Yoshi's double jump to [[B-reverse]] Egg Throw, which will have the same result as normal. This technique is riskier that the standard version, as failure more often than not leads to a [[self-destruct]], though it has improved [[edgeguarding]] potential by being able to throw an egg at an opponent trying to recover. This technique is only possible in ''SSB'' and ''Melee'', as Yoshi lost the ability to B-reverse Egg Throw in that game.

| |
| Starting in ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island}}'', Yoshi would [[Egg Lay|eat enemies to turn them into eggs]] and then aim and throw the eggs at other enemies. The eggs would fly straight, bouncing off walls and skimming across water. In ''{{s|mariowiki|Yoshi's Story}}'', eggs stopped bouncing and instead exploded upon reaching the point of the aiming cursor; the size of the explosion was based on the Yoshi's happiness and color. Yoshi can carry six eggs at a time, though objects such as keys count towards the six slots.
| |
|
| |
|
| In the ''Smash Bros.'' series, thrown eggs arc due to gravity. The only time this occurs in a non-spinoff game is the final battle against Giant {{s|mariowiki|Baby Bowser}} in ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island}}'', where Yoshi throws giant eggs into the background; in all other instances eggs fly in straight lines, ignoring gravity.
| | ''"Increase toss distance by holding down B. Adjust loft with the [[Control Stick]]."'' |
| | |
| The rainbow trail used in ''SSB4'' and ''Ultimate'' may be a reference to Yoshi's "Rainbow Swing" Star Swing in addition to his "Rainbow Ball" Star Pitch in ''{{s|mariowiki|Mario Super Sluggers}}'', which both feature a similar rainbow trail.
