Yoshi (film character)

Yoshi is the much-abused pet dinosaur of President Koopa in the Super Mario Bros. film. Unlike most other inhabitants of Dinohattan, he retained his original reptilian form.

History
Much of Yoshi's early history is unknown. It is known that he had been the pet of President Koopa and Lena for some time, during which he suffered extensive physical abuse and was derisively called a "throwback". However, when Princess Daisy was captured, she befriended him, with Yoshi later getting stabbed while protecting Daisy. He survived, however, and bid farewell to the Mario brothers along with Daisy and Toad after Koopa was defeated.
