'''Yoshi''' is a dinosaur that first appeared in the video game ''[[Super Mario World]]''. Following it, comes [[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]] where Yoshi rescues [[Baby Mario]], and helps reunite him with [[Baby Luigi]]. Yoshi also helps [[Luigi]] find [[Mario]] in ''[[Mario is Missing]]''. Yoshi then became popular, as he was in such games as the [[Mario Kart]] series, and the [[Mario Party]] series. Yoshi's first starring role was in the game [[Yoshi (game)|Yoshi]], a puzzle title.

Another Yoshi appears as one of Mario's partners in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. Depending on how long the player takes to hatch his egg after acquiring it, he'll vary in colors: green, blue, red, orange, pink, white and black. You also can make your file name into the color you want. The player is also granted the option of giving the newborn Yoshi a name, no more than 8 characters long, when the Yoshi joins the party. The default name is Yoshi, not to be confused with the main green one. Mario can ride him, making you move faster, and like [[Parakarry]] from the original ''[[Paper Mario]]'', his Flutter Jump, while too weak to fly high, can get you across large gaps. He can also get you to places quickly, since he is fast on his feet. Throughout the game, he refers to Mario as the Great Gonzales, because that's what everyone called him in the [[Glitz Pit]]. Yoshi's attacks make him a formidable and easy-to-use partner, as he possesses many unique abilities to confound foes. He is known for having multiple-weak attacks, like his ground pound move. After the adventure, the Yoshi apparently returns to the Glitz Pit, where he fights under the name 'Great Gonzales Jr.' He is known as "Chibiyoshi" (a cross between "Chibi" and "Yoshi")in the Japanese version. In more recent games, starting with ''[[Yoshi's Story]]'', Yoshi has been voiced by [[Kazumi Totaka]] who incidentally also composed the score to ''Yoshi's Story''.

Yoshi is a species of dinosaurs, and the name of a specific member of that species. Yoshis have very long, sticky tongues, and can swallow almost anything, even things that are much larger than Yoshis themselves are. Almost everything they swallow is transformed into (or encased in) an egg, which they can throw as a weapon. They prefer fruit, although they can and usually will eat other things, including living creatures. Their noses, taking up half of their heads, can detect fruit buried underground and other strange secrets in ''Yoshi Story''. Even though they have teeth, these are rarely seen or used. While Yoshi himself is depicted as green, other Yoshis in general come in a variety of colors, much like how [[Birdo]] is usually portrayed pink, but is also shown in many other colors. Yoshi is the protagonist of his own series as well as a minor character in the Mario series.
