Stampede! (referred to as Yoshi Stampede in the tips) is Yoshi's Final Smash in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, replacing his previous Final Smash, Super Dragon, from Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U. After Yoshi breaks the Smash Ball and activates his Final Smash, he lunges forward. Yoshi does not go over the edges of platforms during the lunge, instead performing the remainder of the lunge in place. If Yoshi's lunge collides with any enemies, he stops to swing his head upward at them. Any opponents hit by Yoshi's head, including those who were not hit by the lunge, are sent to a canyon-like area where a stampede of different-colored Yoshis run in from the background and trample them. After the cinematic ends, the opponent(s) are launched away. As with most Final Smashes, if Yoshi is in the air after the cinematic, he pops upward a short distance. The initial lunge covers a fair distance, and can potentially KO Yoshi if he misses and is close to the edge of the screen. If Yoshi fails to perform the headbutt on at least one opponent, he skids to a stop and the Final Smash does not play out. If this happens, Yoshi can still get the boost for ending the move in the air. The Final Smash cinematic is based on Yoshi's appearance in Super Smash Bros. Melee's opening.
