The '''Egg Throw''' is a move typically used by [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshis]]. This is one of their signature moves and was first used in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]''. To use it, a Yoshi must first get a [[Yoshi's Egg|Yoshi Egg]]. Each throw uses one egg. The player must hold or press the aiming button to show an X-shaped pointer, which moves up and down. Letting go or pressing the aim button again fires the egg in the direction of the cursor.

The egg keeps going in the direction it was thrown until it hits a wall, a ceiling, or the ground, at which point it bounces. When it hits an enemy or bounces too many times, the egg breaks. Bouncing eggs are especially useful in underground stages with a lot of dirt to clear out. If an egg bounces multiple times, it changes color, going from green to [[Yellow Egg|yellow]] to [[Red Egg|red]], after which it breaks. Most bosses in the [[Yoshi (franchise)|''Yoshi'' franchise]] are defeated by throwing eggs. | ||
In ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', [[Yoshi]] does not have to aim, because an egg he throws automatically targets the nearest enemy. If no enemies are around, the egg is thrown directly forward. It can also chain to a couple of enemies. If it does this, not only does Yoshi clear the path more, but he also gets two [[coin]]s per enemy, rather than just one. The move is useful in the mission [[Behind Chain Chomp's Gate|Behind Chain-Chomp's Gate]] because it can paralyze the [[Chain Chomp|Chain-Chomp]] for a few seconds. However, Yoshi can carry only one egg at a time, instead of six in the ''Yoshi'' series. | In ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', [[Yoshi]] does not have to aim, because an egg he throws automatically targets the nearest enemy.

This boss character can use Egg Throw, complete with the cursor from the ''Yoshi'' games, against all four of the Mario Bros. as an attack, using [[Yoob]] [[Egg (Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time)|eggs]] that contain trapped Yoshis inside. This attack can be [[jump]]ed over. | ||

In the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]], Egg Throw is Yoshi's up special move. When it is used, Yoshi throws an egg at an upward arc rather than directly forward; the angle of the throw can be adjusted by tilting the Control Stick after executing the move, and the distance depends on how long the player holds down the special move button. Starting with ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', Yoshi is also given some height when using the move in the air, but it decreases each time he uses it. The eggs break as soon as they hit an opponent or object; in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', however, the eggs can bounce off the ground at least once before breaking.<ref>{{cite|language=en|author=Super Smash Bros.|date=June 12, 2018|url=youtu.be/bQsMQankmEs|title=05: Yoshi – Super Smash Bros.
