Yoshi: Difference between revisions

Yoshi has average running and swimming speed, as well as having the highest jump out of the four playable characters, tied with Luigi; while jumping, the player can hold the {{button|ds|A}} button to perform a [[Flutter Jump|flutter kick]], giving Yoshi a boost while in the air to reach further places (this does not work while [[Triple Jump|triple-jump]]ing). Yoshi, however, does not triple-jump and [[Long Jump|long-jump]] as high and far as Mario and Luigi do. Additionally, Yoshi's [[Power Flower (Super Mario 64 DS)|Power Flower]] ability is [[Fire Power (Yoshi)|Fire Power]], which allows him to breathe fire that can melt blocks of [[Ice Block|Ice]] and defeat most enemies on contact; he can also breathe a single breath of fire by eating a source of fire and spitting it out. Yoshi also breathes fire if he swallows enemies such as [[flame thrower (Flame Chomp)|flame thrower]]s and [[Fly Guy]]s. Yoshi's fire breath can also destroy signs. Since Yoshi cannot punch or grab objects, like mentioned above, he cannot defeat bosses that require these moves without wearing a [[cap]]; in some cases, however, they toss objects, such as [[Bob-omb]]s, that Yoshi can eat and use to attack. Additionally, when entering a course, if any of the other player characters have been unlocked, Yoshi can enter a level and wear one of their caps by default if the player taps the icon on the Touch Screen while on the mission-selection screen. Due to not being able to defeat Boos, [[Big Boo's Haunt]] is the only main course Yoshi cannot access.
