'''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''': Default.
# '''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.

# '''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.

==Edge-canceled eggs==
'''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===
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.
