Egg Throw: Difference between revisions

'''Egg Throw''' 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. The egg explodes upon contact or after moving along for a set air-time. 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. Yoshi's up sepcial is fairly unique in [[Super Smash Bros.|''SSB'']] and [[Super Smash Bros. Melee|''Melee'']] in that it is not a triple jump, does not noticeably aid in [[recovery]], and does not put Yoshi into a state of helplessness. However, it does help with recovery in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl|''Brawl'']], while still not causing helplessness. Yoshi can use Egg Toss many times in the air, gaining 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 it gives no height at all. Also, the Egg Throw's versatility was dampened substantially in ''SSBB'' by the fact that Yoshi is now forced to choose between certain egg "routes", as opposed to before where the eggs could end up anywhere.
