first of all, let me say that this thread is for those who play yoshi or want to play yoshi, not those who wish to simply say"yoshi sucks" and never post again.
secondly, the reason as to why i am creating this thread. see this video:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ltqgP-Xgceg
i want this thread to exist so that we can all recognize and list any of yoshi's weaknesses, not strenghths, (as we already know those as can be seen by the continuous defending of his goodness.) so that we can change out stratagies and use our weaknesses, both obvious and not, to our advantage, or at least not to our disadvantage.
please post any weaknesses that have bothered you in a match or even cost you it. i will list all of them below this line and post when there is an update.

after we believe that all of his weaknesses have been listed, we should al work togeather in order to find ways to fix those weaknesses a
nd possibly make them strengths.
Yoshi Cons
1. after shielding, is left venerable to attack
2. slow shield grab
3. does not regain double jump when grabbed or attacked in general.
4. has trouble punishing bad spacing
5. cannot jump out of shield
6. not as reliable of a tank as before
7. no double jump counter attack in 100%range
8. Can't recover after Egg Rolling off the edge.
9. Egg Roll can't "cling" against fire attacks (except Zelda's sideB).
10. Dsmash has relatively low knock-back.
11. Invincibility frames after Egg Lay makes it potentially harder to combo the opponent afterwards.
12. Aerial priority is lacking. Anyone with a flexible air game can stuff Yoshi in the air.
13. Without the double jump, his recovery is mediocre
14. He doesn't have anything particularly broken that he can abuse like a lot of the higher tiered characters.
15. He can't outspam most projectile users.
16. Few reliable KO moves.
17. Slow roll
18. Has few options for approaching.
19. Easily suicides
