Editing Super Mario 64 DS

|rowspan=3|As the first and default character of the game, Yoshi must find and free Mario, Luigi, and Wario, who have been imprisoned from the clutches of Bowser and [[Bowser's Minions|his minions]]. Yoshi has average running speed but quite slow swimming speed. His jumping ability is generally worse than both Mario's and Luigi's, though better than Wario's, as Yoshi is able to [[Flutter Jump|flutter-kick]] (when {{button|ds|B}} is held) to reach higher places that the others cannot reach. However, he cannot punch or kick (unless he uses a [[Super Mushroom|mushroom]]), nor can he grab large objects or enemies. His [[Ground Pound|Pound the Ground]] attack also is not strong enough to break any [[Block (Super Mario 64)|Brick]]s or defeat [[Boo]]s. Instead of normal attacks, he has the ability to [[swallow]] most enemies (when {{button|ds|A}} is pressed) and either spit them back out or turn them into [[Yoshi's Egg|eggs]] (when {{button|ds|R}} is pressed) that he can [[Egg Throw|throw]], making him the only character with a projectile attack. Yoshi can have only one egg at a time. His thrown eggs home in on enemies and defeat multiple enemies nearby in a sequence. Yoshi can also swallow fire and then spit it out as a stream of flame. Some enemies, such as [[Bully|Bullies]], cannot be swallowed. Yoshi's [[Power Flower (Super Mario 64 DS)|Power Flower]] ability is [[Fire Power (Yoshi)|Fire Power]], which fills his mouth with a flame he can use as much as he wants for a limited time. This flame can melt blocks of [[Ice Block|Ice]] and damage enemies. Yoshi is also the tallest character.
