So, for now, our subject will be the fun-loving dinossaur-frong-dragon-whatever race that inhabits Yoshi's Island, and are often regarded as owners of their own series in the SSB series because all the characters available from the start plus half of the unlockables in the SSB64 roster were.

Where did Yoshi get buffed particularly, as it clearly improved a lot? Do you believe that it was worth its position in SSB64 and throughout the series? Has it been a total dump or a reliable choice in the past? Do you believe that its stage in SSB64 was worth a position in Brawl, too?

Yoshi's recovery improved, adding a third jump for his up B.
His aerials received some nice buffs, particularly his nair, bair, and uair. His dair is still really useful, but the damage has been nerfed slightly.
Yoshi would be an all-around character like Mario. His speed, power, and everything else is pretty much equal. Yoshi is a fun character to use and also beginner friendly.

I think they buffed him a little, but I still don't use him much. His egg-throw is really weak, even though it's got a great range and his eggroll usually gets me killed 50% of the time.

[King Harkinian]

Yoshi is fun to play as, plus his FS is cool.

[ZONED OUT]

He is a great character. Up-B has been really buffed. It gives you that small hop that you need. The Egg throw is a lot easier to aim, imo. He is great for beginners since it makes invincible during the time. The only thing I was a bit disappointed was that they haven't colored Yoshi's egg according to their color. Come on, they gave ROB a different color for his spinning top.

[Super Hario]

Quite honestly, I could never get used to playing as Yoshi. He just plays too awkwardly for me. I don't know why, but I just CAN'T play as him. ._.

[Kamui Lee]

He has been buffed up a little but its still hard to play as or against him cause his down and side b make him really cheap so about 50% of the time he just uses those moves

[Crappy Shifty Luigi]

Yoshi, IMO, has been buffed a TON!

His moves are easier to land, and his flutter kick causes more damage than usual; not to mention his B moves are more EPIC!

And his stage is SO Epic. It's my favorite stage in the entire GAME! I like seeing all four cycles of the year in a short amount of time. [About 5:00-6:00 matches should give you the whole cycle at least once]

And his Final Smash is made of awesome-sauce. The adorable dino with wings...THAT BREATHE FIREBALLS! I always get about 5-6 KOs alone with the FS in a 3:00 match.

I give him 5 cans of eggy destruction, out of five!
