| Move | Description | Segment | Damage | Angle | Hit Frames | BKB | KBG | WBKB | Type | ||||
| Neutral attack | Left kick, then right kick. Quick speed and decent damage (the second kick will clank with 14%-damage attacks, such as most tilts) make it a solid "panic" move. | Hit 1 | Leg | 3% | 3 | 5 | 8 | 50 | 0 | ||||

| Forward tilt | Yoshi spins and tags people in front of him with his tail. Insanely fast. Does just enough damage (when not angled down) to clank with 17%-damage moves (or even 18% ones that aren't completely fresh), which covers quite a lot of tilts, smashes, air attacks, and projectiles. Can be used to juggle many characters across the stage at certain percentages. Ideal against characters like Sonic. | Angled up | Body | 10% | 6 | 8 | 40 | 80 | 0 | ||||

| Up tilt | Yoshi crouches and flicks his tail upwards. | Tail | 11% | 7 | 11 | 72 | 40 | 0 | |||||
| Tip | 10% | ||||||||||||
| Down tilt | Low tail whip. Its forward range is actually greater than Yoshi's down smash, although hitting with the tip does half damage. It does, however, have a 40% chance of tripping (the main attack has a 30% chance). | Tail | 10% | 8 | 10 | 65 | 30 | 0 | |||||
| Tip | 5% | ||||||||||||
| Dash attack | Running headbutt. Quick and powerful, with horizontal knockback useful at the edge, where Yoshi can start edge guarding. Yoshi's head cannot be injured during the clean hit and a decent amount of time beforehand. | Clean | 9% | 10 | 13 | 15 | 100 | 0 | |||||
| Late | 7% | 14 | 23 | ||||||||||
| Up smash | Yoshi headbutts upwards. The attack can hit behind Yoshi. Yoshi's head is intangible while the hitboxes are out. | Head | 16% | 11 | 16 | 23 | 83 | 0 | |||||
| Neck | |||||||||||||
| Down smash | Yoshi strikes on both sides with his tail. Very quick, but surprisingly low knockback for a smash attack. Assuming the move is fresh and uncharged, it cannot KO until at least 150%. Mostly used for edge-guarding. Useful against opponents recovering from a ledge. | Hit 1 | Body | 14% | 6 | 7 | 30 | 63 | 0 | ||||
| Tail | 53 | ||||||||||||
| Hit 2 | Body | 13% | 22 | 23 | 63 | ||||||||
| Tail | 53 | ||||||||||||
| Forward smash | Yoshi flings his head forwards. Can form a good combo when following Yoshi's back aerial (if Yoshi's back aerial tips them). When angled down, fully charged, and sweetspotted, it can KO at 85%. | 16% | 14 | 16 | 20 | 92 | 0 | ||||||
| Neutral aerial | Sex kick. Yoshi's foot grows large while kicking. Can be performed immediately after the ending of a down aerial to try and break through shields. Good knockback if it connects with an opponent as it's executed, and can be used for off-stage KOs. A useful aerial approach option. | Clean | 12% | 3 | 5 | 15 | 100 | 0 | |||||
| Mid | 9% | 6 | 15 | 0 | |||||||||
| Late | 6% | 16 | 31 | ||||||||||
| Forward aerial | Yoshi winds up and slams his head downwards. The head meteor smashes, while the body does not and does a bit more damage, while sending opponents horizontally instead. A useful way to finish a combo, or it can just be used as a basic edgeguarder. Can also be used as a grab release followup on characters such as Meta Knight. | Body | 16% | 19 | 21 | 0 | 90 | 0 | |||||
| Head | 15% | ||||||||||||
| Back aerial | Quadruple tail whip. Very good attack for reverse-back aerial'ing, but extra SDI potential makes it easier to escape than other multi-hit attacks. | Hit 1 | 4% | 10 | 12 | 10 | 100 | 0 | |||||
| Hit 2 | 3% | 16 | 18 | 20 | |||||||||
| Hit 3 | 3% | 23 | 25 | ||||||||||
| Hit 4 | 4% | 28 | 30 | 50 | |||||||||
| Up aerial | Does a flip and hits hard upward with his tail, good range, great knockback and low starting lag too. Yoshi's best KO move, easy to set up with eggs and double jump. | 13% | 5 | 6 | 25 | 100 | 0 | ||||||
| Down aerial | Yoshi's famous multi-kick. Most damaging aerial attack. Can Meteor Smash, but is rather weak. Good for wearing down shields, neutral aerials or footstool set-ups; however it has extra SDI capacity. | Hits 1-7 | Center | 3% | 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28 | 5 | 80 | 0 | |||||

| Up throw | Spits the opponent upwards. | 5% | 13 | 65 | 43 | 0 | |||||||
| Down throw | Spits the opponent into the ground, which knocks them upwards. Has good hitstun, combos well into a up aerial for a KO. | 4% | 15 | 100 | 25 | 0 | |||||||

| Edge (<100%) | Gets up and whips his tail. | 6% | 20 | 24 | 0 | 100 | 110 | ||||||
| Edge (100%+) | Slowly gets up and slams his head forward with short range. The third most damaging ledge attack in the game, right behind Ganondorf's when sweetspotted and Lucario's at max damage. | 12% | 34 | 38 | 0 | 100 | 110 | ||||||
| Neutral special | Egg Lay | Traps opponents temporarily, but has them take half damage. Sometimes throws the opponent instead of grabbing (this is not fully understood). Deals a solid blow to enemies in the Subspace Emissary. | Grab | 17 | 22 | ||||||||
