Egg Throw

A move used by Yoshi. This is his signature move and was first used in Yoshi's Island. To use it Yoshi must first get a Yoshi Egg. Each throw uses one Yoshi Egg. The player must hold or press the aiming button to show a X-shaped cursor. Whichever direction it is thrown, it keeps going in that direction until it hits a wall, ceiling, or ground. Also when it hits an enemy, flies off the course or bounces too many times. When it hits a wall, ceiling, or ground it bounces, especially useful in underground stages. Most bosses in the Yoshi Series are defeated with this move. In Super Mario 64 DS Yoshi doesn't have to aim because it is automatically aimed toward the nearest enemy. If no enemies are around, it is just thrown toward Yoshi's front. It can also chain to a couple of enemies. It is useful in the mission Behind Chain-Chomp's Gate because it can paralyze it for a few seconds.
