Red Yoshi has the distinct ability of breathing out three fireballs at once. To do this, Red Yoshi has to put a Koopa Shell of any color into his mouth. Before releasing the Koopa Shell, it turns into three red fireballs and is therefore released as such.

Red Yoshi Artwork - New Super Mario Bros

New Super Mario Bros. Wii artwork of Toad riding a Red Yoshi, which was later changed to a Pink Yoshi after Red Yoshi had been scrapped

  • Red Yoshis would have been among the Yoshi colors to appear in New Super Mario Bros. Wii, but was removed in favor of Pink Yoshi. Red Yoshi was likely removed very late into development, as there is artwork of Blue Toad riding a Red Yoshi, but before the game's release, the artwork was modified to show him riding on a Pink Yoshi instead.
