Yoshi (SSBB)

Line 16:

Confirmed on the [[Smash Bros. DOJO!!]] website on July 24, 2007, '''Yoshi''' ({{ja|ヨッシー|Yosshī}}, ''Yoshi'') is a returning veteran in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. Yoshi is once again voiced by Kazumi Totaka, albeit with recycled voice clips.

Yoshi currently ranks 27th on the [[tier list]] at the last spot of mid tier, a vast drop from his 12th position in ''Melee'', and his worst placement in the series. Yoshi is a unique character; he is a heavyweight with the fastest [[air speed]] in ''Brawl'', possesses a [[recovery]] that revolves around the best [[midair jump]] in ''Brawl'', and possesses a unique [[Shield#Yoshi's shield|shield]] that does not shrink, making him completely immune to [[shield stabbing]]. Yoshi in general has great all around movement speed (possessing a fast [[walking]] and [[dashing]] speed to compliment his air speed), and fast attacks throughout his moveset. Additionally, Yoshi possesses [[grab release]] options on several characters (which include [[chain grab]]s on nearly half the cast and a forward aerial [[meteor smash]] follow up), which is complimented by one of the best [[pivot grab]]s. Yoshi also has among the best [[Momentum cancelling#Horizontal momentum canceling|horizontal survivability]] with above-average vertical survivability due to his heavyweight status and average falling speed, good [[reach]] all around, a great get off move in his [[jab]], and a great anti-air [[projectile]] in [[Egg Throw]]. Yoshi has some strong flaws however, the most major of which being his abysmal [[out of shield]] options, as he is unable to jump out of shield (the only character with this hindrance), which combines with his slow standing [[grab]] and poor [[roll dodge]] for one of the worst close up games (resulting in Yoshi being easy to pressure). Yoshi also has an over-reliance on his double jump to recover, making [[footstool jump]]s, [[meteor smash]]es, or certain special grabs very dangerous to him (although he can [[air dodge]] during his second jump to gain invincibility). Other flaws include his slow and laggy standing and dashing grabs and an awkwardly large [[hurtbox]] on his nose that makes it easier to hit and [[space]] Yoshi. He also has poor KO power, since outside of his forward smash and neutral aerial, he lacks other effective finishers, since his up and down smashes are among the weakest and back aerial cannot KO reliably. Overall, this has resulted in average matchups and average tournament results for Yoshi.
