| ] stated that Nintendo had wanted Mario to have a dinosaur companion ever since ''Super Mario Bros.''; however, it was not possible because of the limitations of the ]. During the development of '']'', Miyamoto had a number of sketches around his desk, including an image of Mario riding atop a dinosaur. ], a ''Mario'' series developer, speculated that Miyamoto's love of horse riding as well as country and western influenced Yoshi's creation. The concept of Mario riding a dinosaur also came from the NES video game '']'', which featured people riding ]s. He again wanted to feature Yoshi in ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', but was still unable to. Tezuka designed two power-ups to make up for this limitation, the raccoon and frog power-ups. Once the more powerful ] was released, Miyamoto was finally able to implement Yoshi into the series, putting him into the video game '']''.<ref>http://us.wii.com/iwata_asks/nsmb/vol2_page1.jsp</ref> Yoshi proved to be popular in his debut, which caused the next game in the series, ] to focus on his species.<ref>{{cite web |title=IGN Presents The History of Super Mario Bros. |url=http://retro.ign.com/articles/833/833615p2.html|publisher=] |accessdate=2009-09-12 |date=2007-11-07}}</ref> | |||
| The version of Yoshi seen in the '']'' film was made using a three foot tall ] dinosaur. He was designed in the film by Dave Nelson. It had nearly 200 feet of cable and hundreds of moving parts inside of it, and was controlled by nine puppeteers. The body is cable-controlled, while the head is radio-controlled. Nelson described the overall process as being "difficult."<ref>http://www.smbmovie.com/SMBArchive/media/behindthescenes/yoshi.htm</ref> The creation of Yoshi was handled by a company independent from the filmmakers.<ref>http://www.smbmovie.com/SMBArchive/specials/interviews/2_JeffGoodwin_3-30-09.html</ref> | |||
| == Characteristics == | |||
| Yoshi's trademarks are his long sticky tongue, his green-dotted egg, his speech, and his jump. Yoshis can come in a variety of colors, though they are primarily green.<ref name="ignbio" /> Other common colors include blue, red, pink, and yellow. In '']'' for the ], different colors of Yoshi had different abilities, such as fire-breathing and flying. Yoshis are often shown living in villages with a few wooden constructions. Their social structure is developed and organized, as they are shown living together in settlements, having meetings and working together. Yoshi has many different abilities which are useful whenever Mario or another hero is riding him. Yoshi's special jump called the flutter jump allows him to kick wildly in the air to stay afloat, making his jumps longer and higher. His long tongue allows him to swallow many things (particularly enemies) and use them to lay eggs which he can throw. <ref name="ignbio" /> | |||

| Yoshi made his debut in '']'' as a native ] that ] could ride on in order to eat enemies and otherwise navigate Dinosaur Land more quickly and easily.

However in this game, he is referred to as a tropical yoshi which changes to different colors after eating different fruit. Most recently, Yoshi appears in '']''. His role in ''New Super Mario Bros.
