Hello fellow smashers/Yoshi mains. My name Is Tombocombo, and I have recently discovered a new secret technique that only Yoshi can do. I'm on the fence on whether it's a true bug or if it was purposefully programmed into the game. But the technique is pivotal to Yoshi's kit and gives him an extra option.
The Technique in Question? I humbly call it: the Grab-Parry.
Basically, in the beginning frames of Yoshi's shield (the first 3 frames to be exact) give Yoshi the ability to ignore grabs. Yes, you heard me right, IGNORE GRABS. The timing is tricky, and you need to have a very good read/punish game, but if you time it within those 3 frames, you will ignore any and all grabs (some tether grabs have more active frames than the parry, depending on where Yoshi is in the hitbox, so he can still be grabbed in those situations).
I have captured footage of the tech, along with other fun things about Yoshi in a combo video I have recently uploaded.
Please Check it out:

To the PMBR:
Do NOT nerf this PLEASE. It only gives Yoshi a new option, It is NOT game breaking, just another thing that makes Yoshi more Viable.
