- I think 'Yossy' is a Japanese transliteration or something. – Smiddle ( Talk • Conts ) 10:54, February 10, 2007 (GMT)
- The Wikipedia article says it's Yosshi. – Smiddle ( Talk • Conts ) 10:56, February 10, 2007 (GMT)
- Ah-HA! "sometimes spelt Yossy in Japanese"! – Smiddle ( Talk • Conts ) 10:56, February 10, 2007 (GMT)
- i wonder about that sometimes in japanese bit....'sy' never occurs in japanese writing...--Simna ibn Sind 12:29, February 11, 2007 (GMT)

Someone completely erased the disambig thing copied DIRECTLY the Wikipedia artile and pasted it here! Don't worry, I'll fix it.

Hair colour?
The article says yoshi`s hair colour varies... but yoshi has no hair. He hath thy scales on the back of his head not Hair... It`sa--PK king (talk) 22:24, 8 February 2009 (UTC)
- He had hair in PM2. Dazuro (talk) 05:38, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
- The question is whether this article is about "the" Yoshi, or Yoshis as a species. If it's about "the" Yoshi, then he has no hair. If it's about Yoshis as a species, then it would vary (although very little; that Yoshi kid was an oddball anyway for being in a multicoloured egg).

Male?
Isn't it technically female as it lays eggs? Mr. Anon teh awsome 00:32, August 31, 2010 (UTC)
- Nope. Yoshi is officially male. BNK [E|T|C] 01:24, August 31, 2010 (UTC)
- This isn't exactly within the realm of this wiki, but there are tons of Mario sites that debate on things such as Yoshi biology, such as where the wings come from and how strong their legs have to be to flutter. One of the common threads is the egg thing, which in my opinion can be explained as "both genders lay eggs but only the females can lay eggs with babies in them". Besides, Yoshis are shown being able to instantly produce eggs from anything (as well as out of nowhere) - that's not normal egg behaviour in the first place (which would be reproduction), so we can't assume any of our normal preconceptions (that is, laying eggs = female) should apply.

- No, but there are images of Yoshi producing eggs that hatch into other Yoshis (such as the SSB intro). As such, I think we should remove where it says in it's infobox that it's male. We can keep the male pronoun usage, as it acts in a masculine manner, but the infobox is supposed to have accurate information, and saying that it's male isn't exactly accurate. I don't want to make a big deal out of it, but I'm just expressing one of my points of concern. Sir Anon the great 01:53, August 31, 2010 (UTC)
