Egg Lay

From the Super Mario Wiki, the Mario encyclopedia

Screenshot fromSuper Smash Bros. for Wii U

Egg Lay isYoshi'sstandard special move in theSuper Smash Bros. series. It involves him sticking his tongue out, and if hegrabs afighter, Yoshiswallows them and lays an egg with them trapped inside; fighters with higherdamage outputs are trapped in eggs for longer, but can escape sooner by pressing buttons.

InSuper Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS /Wii U, Egg Lay has two custom variants:

Lick cannot grab fighters, but instead, Yoshijumps forward and uses his tongue to attack nearby opponents.
Egg Launch enables Yoshi to launch opponents farther than normal after turning them into eggs. However, the trapped opponents can break free from the eggs more easily. This attack can be used to send opponents off-stage, which can potentially give YoshiKOs if his target's horizontalrecovery is poor.
