Yoshi, Mario's reliable sidekick, originates from Yoshi's Island. He is green in color, although others of his species can be found in various other hues like red, blue, pink, and yellow.
Yoshi is a kind-hearted and laid-back character. He makes use of his long tongue to devour fruit as well as enemies. What's more, he can transform those he swallows into eggs that he can then hurl.
