 '''Yoshi''' ({{ja|ヨッシー}}, ''Yosshī'') is a character appearing in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. He is relatively unchanged from the previous games except for one thing - he can now use his Egg Toss as a recovery move (though it only gives him a small upwards boost). His smashes appear less powerful, but his aerials and tilts are slightly more powerful. He has also taken on his upright posture and his appearance is like the younger Yoshi in ''Yoshi's Story''. He appears to be slightly larger now in relation to the human-sized characters as well.
-Yoshi currently ranks 26th on the tier list on the low end of middle tier, an improvement from his low tier placement in ''Melee''. Yoshi is a unique character; he's 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]]. Other strong traits of Yoshi include great all around movement speed (has a fast [[walking]] and [[dashing]] speed to compliment his air speed), one of the best [[Momentum cancelling#Horizontal momentum canceling|horizontal survivability]], fast attacks throughout his moveset, good [[reach]] all around, a great get off move in his [[jab]], a great anti-air [[projectile]] in [[Egg Throw]], one of the best [[pivot grab]]s, and strong [[grab release]] options on several characters (which include [[chain grab]]s and a forward aerial [[meteor smash]] follow up). Yoshi has some strong flaws however, which include his over-reliance on his double jump to recover, making [[Footstool Jump]]s, [[Meteor Smashes]], or certain special grabs very dangerous to him (although he can [[air dodge]] during his second jump to gain invincibility), abysmal [[out of shield]] options (most notably, being the only character unable to jump out of shield) which combine with his slow standing [[grab]] and poor [[roll dodge]] for one of the worst close up games (resulting in Yoshi being easy to pressure), and generally poor finishing ability, resulting from possessing mediocre to just above average finishers, and having extremely weak attacks outside his finishers. Other flaws include his slow and laggy standing and dashing grabs, poor [[throw]]s, poor [[tilt]]s, and an awkwardly large [[hurtbox]] on his nose that makes it easier to hit and [[space]] Yoshi. Overall, this has resulted in average matchups and tournament results for Yoshi.

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]], 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's 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 Smashes]], or certain special grabs very dangerous to him (although he can [[air dodge]] during his second jump to gain invincibility). Yoshi additionally possesses generally poor finishing ability, resulting from possessing mediocre to just above average finishers, and having extremely weak attacks outside his finishers. Other flaws include his slow and laggy standing and dashing grabs, poor [[throw]]s, poor [[tilt]]s, and an awkwardly large [[hurtbox]] on his nose that makes it easier to hit and [[space]] Yoshi. Overall, this has resulted in average matchups and tournament results for Yoshi.
