Obviously, Yoshi was announced for Brawl weeks ago, I'm only posting up his picture because I haven't yet! Anyway, a very unexpected Final Smash for Yoshi was announced though! Yoshi will be able to grow Wings and fly around for a limited amount of time while breathing fire on his opponents! Sound familiar? It all comes from Super Mario World!

Which was Yoshi's very first appearance in a video game! Super Mario World's version of Yoshi was able to gain wings when he had a Blue Koopa Shell in his mouth, he was also able to breath fire with a Red one in his mouth. Well, Yoshi's Island also allowed Yoshi to breath fire with those Red Watermelons, and I think Super Mario 64 DS also gave Yoshi the ability to breath fire. However, the main reference is to Yoshi's first appearance in the Mario series! Where he eventually got his own individual franchise and series to himself. Although it's still technically a sub-series of the bigger Mario universe, just like how Donkey Kong is.
Yoshi has always been one of my favorite Mario characters! In games like Mario Party and Mario Kart, he was always the character I chose, so I'm kind of excited about his Final Smash! According to Sakurai, he's mixing

elegance and beauty with a bit of clumsiness! Haha, Yoshi has always been awesome, which is why I bought his games. Yoshi's Island, Yoshi's Story, and Yoshi's Island DS. I still need to beat Yoshi's Island DS though... I never really used Yoshi as a main character in Smash, but I did for a short while, I remember getting pretty good at him too! However, I don't know what happened but I kind of stopped playing as him as much. He was pretty good too! Very durable, he doesn't get knocked off the stage very easily. Oh well, maybe I'll try to be him more as I play SSBM to get everything back. I really can't wait for SSBB though. :o
Oh, and 50th POST! OMGWTFBBQ!
