The '''Flutter Jump''' (alternatively formatted as '''Flutter-Jump'''<ref>Black, Fletcher. ''Yoshi's Island DS'' PRIMA Official Game Guide. Page 9.</ref> or '''flutter jump'''), also known as the '''Hovering Jump''' in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'', '''Sustained Jump''' in ''[[Yoshi's Story]]'' [[Prima Games|Prima]] material,<ref>Prima Bath. ''Nintendo 64 Game Secrets, 1999 Edition'' Prima's Official Strategy Guide. Pages 102, 106, 110, 113.</ref> '''Hover''' in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', and '''flutter kick''' in ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'' and ''[[Yoshi Touch & Go]]'', is a characteristic [[jump]]ing technique used by [[Yoshi]] and various other characters throughout the ''[[Mario (franchise)|Mario]]'' and ''[[Yoshi (franchise)|Yoshi]]'' franchises. It can be used to prolong descending after a jump and to keep a character airborne temporarily. The Flutter Jump has a distinctive appearance and is executed by rapidly moving one's legs and in some cases one's arms as well, until the character starts to float and "walk" on air. This technique can be utilized to reach remote locations, or simply to rescue a character from a [[pit|bottomless pit]].

The Flutter Jump was first used by Yoshi and seemed like an ability exclusively available for [[Yoshi (species)|his species]] alone, similar to the [[Ground Pound]]. During the different installments, however, other characters were shown to be able to perform a Flutter Jump, such as [[Ludwig von Koopa]], [[Baby Bowser]],<ref>KokiriGaming (March 13, 2014).
