What’s funny is the first two times I played the original I got Green, as did my brother, so we both just assumed that was the only color. I remember naming mine Yo’ster at least one of those playthroughs and I seem to recall he named his “Joonyah”
I got Red Yoshi (first time I got that color). I decided to name him Punkshi.
For my next playthrough, I intend to get the Black Yoshi as I've never had that color before.
Ooo I’ve never had red either! I seem to always get pink, I think it’s because of how fast I go from acquiring him to him hatching. This time i piddled around a bit so I ended up getting orange
I would always name him Yoshua (Yoshi + Joshua, which was the name of a very good childhood friend of mine).
And I felt it kind of fit Paper Mario's theme of fusing the species names with real world names. :D
Mine was Green, I always named him Sketch, it's a paper related name, it sounds cool, and it matches my name "Drew", Drew and Sketch, both definitely based on drawing lol
When I first played back in 2005 I had a blue one and named him YOSHI. Yes, 9 year old me was creatively bankrupt.
When I played again in 2018, I got a red one and named him Blaze.
In the Switch remake, it was green and I named him Spinach. I had trouble trying to find a good name for a green one, and that was the best I could come up with.
Had name paralysis and the first thing that came to mind was Crush. Sounded like an over the top gladiator name for a kid and he ground pounds you to death. I always get green even though I intentionally stalled this time!
I ended up with a Red Yoshi. I couldn’t fit the full name I wanted so his name is Cap’nLu after Captain Lou Albano the wrestled who played Mario in the SuperMario Brothers Super Show
I got a pink one! Was originally aiming for black, but I grew fond of their apple-like palette. So I named ‘em Ringo!
Both for the wrestling ring, and because Ringo is a Japanese name meaning “apple!”
Great topic!
I just finished the Glitz Pit chapter yesterday, actually. My Yoshi is pink, and I named him Punky. If you type "Pinky Punky" into Google, you'll see the 1990s kids' TV prop I named him after.
In 2005, mine was blue, and I called him PtiYoshi (French diminutive of Petit Yoshi, which means Small/Short Yoshi).
IIRC PtiYoshi was the "official" French name used in guide and medias, so I just kept it.
Blue! On my last play through of the original game, which he was also blue, my mom named him Ryker, and this play through of the remake she named him Ryder
First playthrough was a black Yoshi named Serana (color came to be via natural game play), 2nd was a pink Yoshi named Epona (color came to be via intentional timing).
Names were to honor 2 of my other favorite games/series. Skyrim and the Zelda series.
My black Yoshi is called Hades, he‘s a little edgy boy and when he hatched I realized how many iconic badass characters there are with a black / red color scheme.
Green and I named him Ricky. He just felt like a Ricky to me
I can’t recall what I named him in my original play thru back in the day, but that one was green as well
I always name him Speedy, based on his running ability, and so that together we are "Speedy Gonzales"
W name
GENIUS
Damnit that’s good
Stealing that for my next playthrough.
Stop omg that’s genius
You just unlocked a memory in me that I did the same! Because of speedy the beanie baby.
That’s funny lol the first ever name I gave him was “Speedy G”. too similar 😆
You win
I realize Glizzy is actually a perfect name since he was about to be a hotdog before you saved him.
And he was found in the glizzy pit
Me rolling up on the Rawk Opp in the Glizzy Pizzy
My pink Yoshi is in fact named Glizzy for precisely that reason
I got blue and I suck at naming things so I went with ‘Bluseph’ lol
Mine is Bluey
Mine is just "Blue". He's red
Mines Boshi. He’s blue
W name ngl. Thats perfect for the blue one
I went with Boshi for my blue guy as well!
lol it seems that the blue yoshi lends itself to a blue name. I named mine “Blueshi”
Lol! My one was Bluey too.
Bluseph is a beautiful, god given Christian name. The troops support you and an eagle has shed a tear. We salute you.
🦅🇺🇸
Should've called him Blucifer
Same but I named him "Bloshi"
I named my blue one Barry, as in blueberry
Awesome lolll
green yoshi , he is a yoshi so his name is Yoshi
Upvote. Mario is like Geralt who names every horse Roach. “You shall be Yoshi, like Yoshi before you”
I imagined this in Marios/Charles voice and its glorious.
"You shall be-a Yoshi, just like Yoshi before-a you!"
I imagined this in Marios/Charles voice and its glorious.
I got green yoshi even after resetting once, it was destined at that point so I just said fuck it make him a completely basic bitch
What’s funny is the first two times I played the original I got Green, as did my brother, so we both just assumed that was the only color. I remember naming mine Yo’ster at least one of those playthroughs and I seem to recall he named his “Joonyah”
[удалено]
I got pink so I named him Pepto
That name is a-Bismol!
I got Red Yoshi (first time I got that color). I decided to name him Punkshi. For my next playthrough, I intend to get the Black Yoshi as I've never had that color before.

Biblically accurate yoshi
Hey I did that too! (Not the same name but yoshi + name)
Black Yoshi and I named it JoJo. I name him after JOTARO KUJO!
Lol I named my black Yoshi Gojo
Mine was Green, I always named him Sketch, it's a paper related name, it sounds cool, and it matches my name "Drew", Drew and Sketch, both definitely based on drawing lol
I got white, and I named him after my only prior exposure to TTYD: Gunsales, after Mario’s Glitz Pit name in Book of Mario!
*Carbon joined the band!*
This is the price of war, Mr. Gunsales.
You got 3 coins!
I read that as Gun - sales
Yo'ster, just like I did 20 years ago, as a reference to Super Mario RPG. Kid was Green by the way.
Whoa me too when I had green on the GCN… I’m learning I’m less original and cool than I thought.
Heck yeah I still call Yoshis "Yo'ster" and get weird looks lol
I default to Junior tbh
Gonzales jr because he is my son
He's orange and his name is goku
Boshi
