Grats Disconnected.....better keep SNOOPING AS usual. 
I wonder if Sakurai is gonna pull a fast one.....like maybe a new re design?

Is snooping an evolved form of lurking? Doesn't it imply I meddle? I like that.
A part of me hopes Yoshi gets a major overhaul but if it meant other characters who desperately needed it wouldn't get their dues, then better to leave him the same , save a few tweaks. I'M LOOKIN AT YOU GDORF!!
Nah, he doesn't. I worded it a bit weird. I'm hoping he actually gets one.
It's something he'd really benefit from considering tethers are no longer completely useless (thanks to the ledge system).

Reeeeeally good point. Ha, thought I was crazy. Are you hoping for some tweaks to his OG move set or something radically different?
Zorua/Zoroark: Copies your appearance and attacks enemies for a brief period. Alternatively, copies another Pokemon and does their attack.
Zoroark should come out looking like another Pokemon and then perform its own attack.

Id go with Zoroark, Musharna, Excadrill and Axew(even though you didn't list it) for gen 5. Id go with Espurr, Floette and Hawlucha for Gen 6, in addition Dedenne already being confirmed. Starters and legendaries are a given for both gens.Random Pokeball Ideas From New Gen 5 + 6 Pokemon
Musharna: Releases pink fog to temporarily cloud the stage, either entirely or just the surrounding area. If just the surrounding area, maybe it puts people to sleep too.
Excadrill: Jump up, flips, joins arms together to form a drill and drills into the ground.
Zorua/Zoroark: Copies your appearance and attacks enemies for a brief period. Alternatively, copies another Pokemon and does their attack.
Haxorus: Attacks others with its teeth/mouth things.
Victini: Performs V-Create attack, a V of fire appears across the stage.
Honedge: Unsheathes itself and randomly slashes at the air, knocking back anyone who gets in the way.
Inkay: Lifts players up and turns them upside down before dropping them.
Tyrantrum: Performs a charge/biting move across the stage.
Hawlucha: Jumps up and performs Flying Press to land on players and crushes them.
Helioptile: Flashes nearby players with electricity. No damage, but stuns for 1-2 seconds.
Credit to PKParaiso for the sprites.
Thoughts?

Although I love Yoshi (I need that "Waahhoooo" in my life), this would be a great switcheroo
Don't let the hype consume you all. This is sakurai were dealing with.
But there's no hype for Smash Bros.

True. These topic are just echo chambers with the same people posting over and over. /s

While we wait for the pic let's think of an egg-stravagant title for the Yoshi thread.

I would like a Mario series item that is a baby Yoshi that you have to feed projectiles and other items until it grows up to be your mount till you are hit hard enough to get launched , then it goes skittering off the stage unless another player steals it.

Anyone else have different names for the different colored Yoshis with your friends/Smash groups? Mine has taken to calling the yellow one Captain Buttersworth.
Edit: I guess that question should be for all palette swaps, but since we're sort of expecting Yoshi tonight I wrote it that way instead.

Wow. This seems like the kind of thing that we'd do but we haven't yet. Maybe some will happen during Smash 4.

Yoshi Yarned his place
Hmm...
Yoshi has always been a really unique character to me, and a lot of his effectiveness comes from his ability to counter attack an opponent thanks to his double jump (which negates a large threshold of knockback). It's great, and Yoshi at his core can be a character to seriously punish aggressive play (like aMSa showed us at Apex, but that was the better Melee Yoshi).
I don't really think Sakurai needs to change his moveset in any drastic away (other than to change his side-b), but I'd like it if Sakurai really embraced the defensive side of Yoshi as a whole and cranked up his punishment capabilities far more. More techniques based on his unique shield and double jump are something I'd love to see.
I'd personally want his double jump cancel back (where you negate your second jump's momentum with an aerial; very helpful for Yoshi to counter attack), but a big reason why it was completely removed is that it can cause an extreme amount of fast pressure, and can even cause shield break combos. I doubt Sakurai wants that, haha.

Thanks for your perspective. I think everyone agrees on his side B. (Cannot say how many times I have SD'd when daring to use that thing.) I knew about his super armoured double jump but since it isn't cancelable it is definitely hard to use effectively. What about his egg throw? How do you think it could be made better? I think it'd be cool if it was tweaked to set up juggles instead of just as an edgeguarding tool.
