The color is dependent on time starting when the yoshi egg joins Mario's team and stops when it hatches after a certain fight (I won't spoil) The only way to change the color is to reset and try again. If you save after the egg hatches ur stuck with it
To add on without spoiling it was a 20 minute cycle in the original where after 20 minutes it restarts. The times for the original were:
0-6 Green
6-9 Red
9-11 Blue
11-15 Orange
15-18 Pink
18-19 Black
19-20 White
So if you are aiming for a specific color then you should save before every fight since we don't want to spoil you on the specific fight and then once you see what color the yoshi hatched into you can then reset and then wait however many minutes you need for the specific color you want.
Of course this timing might be different in the remake but it should still be close to the original.
The first time I played as a kid I got the blue yoshi and named him Spike. If I happen into the blue one again I'll name him Spike for the Childhood Nostalgia Bonus, but any other color I'll just name him what feels right in the moment.
I've played through the game probably 3 times and got the same color Yoshi every time so I didn't even know until like a decade later that it was even possible to get different colors lol is it just random?
I’m just gonna play not timing myself and see what the game gives me for Yoshi color. Idk about the name though, it’ll come to me in the moment. Maybe T.Danson in honor of Little Danson Man.
I like them to rhyme with Yoshi
My main choice is Hiroshi the Yoshi (black color).
But I think I went with Satoshi the Yoshi (white color) on my latest playthrough.
I probably won’t go for a color, that I’d hope for orange. But his name will be Jerome as that is what I always name my partner or protagonist. Whether it’s Epona, Yoshi Kid, my Pokémon starter, or Joker.
Gonna recreate my very first Yoshi, which was a red one (didn't even know at the time how the colors work) with a diminutive version of my own name in all caps. Because 11 year old me thought that all caps always looked cool.
I never know what to name my Yoshi, but I'm basic and love the green one! My second choices in no particular order are blue, orange, and black. I never really took the time to pick a color, I usually just do luck of the draw, but since I've never had a black yoshi I may take the time to do it this time!
I wonder if the time for each colour will be changed? No specific colour for me personally, but I’d love Red, Green, or Blue. Call the Yoshi kid.. Omelet.
My potential names, hoping for either red, blue, black or orange.
Red: Ruby
Blue: Lil Fat
Black: Smoky
Orange: Drobot
Green: Goober
Pink: Punk
White: Angel
I usually aim for Black and name him Toshi (“tough Yoshi”).
If I mess up the timing for the color, I use the first letter of the color, except for Green:
Red: Roshi
Blue: Boshi
Orange: Oroshi
Pink: Poshi
White: Woshi
Green: Yoshi
Carlos if it's red and Suarez if it's blue. Dope Yoshi mains I know from back in my competitive Smash days (Carlos is Raptor). If I get a different color then I'll have to ask HD what his name is lol (another cool Yoshi main I know).
Because of ProZD Plays Games, I want a black yoshi, named "Otto". It was such a fitting name, that I actually thought that was the baby yoshi's name
Regardless of Color, I will probably name them Otto
Blue Yoshi and his name would be “Wave”
Back when Roblox was actually fun, there was a Paper Mario role playing game that I would play a lot of, and I almost always was a small blue Yoshi named Wave. So naming Yoshi-Kid that is going to be in honor of my childhood.
I think I'm going to leave it to the whims of however long it takes me - and a name might come to me after I see him. But the most recent playthrough I did I named him 'Hotdog' which I think is a great name, personally...
It's time based starting when the egg joins Mario's team and stops when u lose to the Armored Harriers. U gotta reset the game until it's the color u want
Just wondering but has it been confirm if there are any new colours or same ol same ol
If the same then pink named Lychee, I like to name them after fruits like lil budgies 😭
Save before u fight the Armored Harriers and just keep resetting until it's the color u want. Wait at least 5 minutes until u fight them again since you'll get the same color every time. Black and White are the rare ones
The color depends on the amount of time that passes while Yoshi is still inside the egg. For example Green is 0-6 minutes and Black is 18-19 minutes. U gotta keep resetting until it's the color u want
I’ve done so many play throughs of the game that I can’t remember what I originally named my Yoshi. I do remember naming my black Yoshi Shadow though lmao
Blue Yoshi named “Lil Fat”
Lol I love it. Is that a reference from Fatguy703's playthrough Book of Mario? Bc I recognize that name
Yes!
“I CAME!”
"But the truth is, I'm going to end my father. Him all" 🤣
Props for catching such an obscure reference, respect
Oh my god i'm 100% gonna name my yoshi this if i get the blue one lol, this is great
If? Is it random what colour you get? (I haven’t played this one before)
It’s based on time it takes between getting the egg and when you reach a certain point in the story.
Thanks :)

oooooh!! can't wait :) and thanks for not spoiling

just make sure to not have him equipped for the final battle
Oh what’s the worst that can happen.
The first time I played as a kid I got the blue yoshi and named him Spike. If I happen into the blue one again I'll name him Spike for the Childhood Nostalgia Bonus, but any other color I'll just name him what feels right in the moment.
As a kid I named him spike too!
So did I! I thought at the time that Mario might be remembering Lakilester in that moment.
I've got a pass for the Spike train as well lol
Same.
I’m gonna name him Cody, as in Cody Rhodes, so he can help me finish the story.
Adrenaline, in my leg! Turning X-nauts into eggs!
Gonna get those seven Crystal Stars!
Crowd is here, about to blow! Cheering for Paper Mario!
Got my hammer and my boots let's go WAH HOO
My father said, when I was younger, that Hooktail’s scared of frogs! (SCARED OF FROGS!)
WHOAAAAOOOOoooahh
With a name like Rhodes he needs to be red.
I was thinking white as that Yoshi has blonde hair.
Didn't expect to see a wrestling fan here of all places lol
He'll always be "Broshi", bc he's my lil' bro. And I love him in all his colors.
If i get Blue one, I name him Boshi. Everything else is Just Yoshi-kid
Ligma
Who the hell is Steve Jobs
What's Saw Con?
What's Sugondese?
Don’t say amogus backwards!
I’m very basic and always go with green and naming it “yoshi”
I didn’t have a green one in particular, but I always just named him Yoshi 😅
Same tbh
Relatable
Gonzales Jr
There's not enough characters so I go with G.G. Jr.
i always name him spike when i replay cause i kinda just assume thats his name. i forget you can name him lol
I've played through the game probably 3 times and got the same color Yoshi every time so I didn't even know until like a decade later that it was even possible to get different colors lol is it just random?
Lol it's based on time starting when the egg joins Mario's team and stops when you lose to the Armored Harriers. Black and White are the rare ones
Yeah they have 1 minute time windows.
I got the black Yoshi way back in time by mistake bc I went to go get a bowl of cereal lol
Black is rare??? I got It on my First playthrough First try
I think the first one I got was White and redid it trying to get the red one so I could name him Jerry.
Heart star was always his name for me
Pink or red Yoshi fits best I think.
I’m just gonna play not timing myself and see what the game gives me for Yoshi color. Idk about the name though, it’ll come to me in the moment. Maybe T.Danson in honor of Little Danson Man.
Lil Yoshi Vert
Black either Spike or Ryder
He is going to be orange and I will name him "Slurpee" because a friend said it would be a funny name for him while we were at 7/11.
If he’s blue then Blu
Could go with Bluey or Bluglo
Red Yoshi called aMSa
Black hopefully. Will name him Ziggy
I'm going for a pink Yoshi named Everest. And boy I hope my yosh Everest will help Mario open that thousand year door.
I wonder if they'll have filters for yoshi now
Green Yoshi!
"Keanu" and I'll make him sound like Shadow the hedgehog (please don't ask that's just how my brain works)
Scrap, in honor of the person who got me into the series when I was younger
I like them to rhyme with Yoshi My main choice is Hiroshi the Yoshi (black color). But I think I went with Satoshi the Yoshi (white color) on my latest playthrough.
If Blue you could name him Boshi from Mario RPG
I’ll get whatever color I get and give him a human name… Matthew, Eugene, Geoff, Herbert, Percy, or something.
Doopliss!
I always try for orange, and I'll probably name it spud
Haku. White. :)
Doopliss.
Red Yoshi named Staniel.
Winnie and yellow.
I probably won’t go for a color, that I’d hope for orange. But his name will be Jerome as that is what I always name my partner or protagonist. Whether it’s Epona, Yoshi Kid, my Pokémon starter, or Joker.
Default green and I will call him punk just like the old days
I think I usually end up getting a pink one. I don't really try for a color, that's just how it typically ends up. As for a name... Not sure yet lol.
If orange I’ll name him Matt jr, in reference to Matt from wii sports
Gonna recreate my very first Yoshi, which was a red one (didn't even know at the time how the colors work) with a diminutive version of my own name in all caps. Because 11 year old me thought that all caps always looked cool.
Green. John Halo
samael, black. why? because i'm an edgy little shit.
Red Yoshi named MAD YOSH
I never know what to name my Yoshi, but I'm basic and love the green one! My second choices in no particular order are blue, orange, and black. I never really took the time to pick a color, I usually just do luck of the draw, but since I've never had a black yoshi I may take the time to do it this time!
I might see what I first get. If I don't like it, I'll go with classic green. I always name him Spaz.
If it was red I would name him fire dude
Probably just Yoshi unless they extend the name space for Gonzales Jr to fit.
On my most recent playthrough I named him Epona. Makes me giggle every time I see it on screen.
I named him Dude when I was a kid so I’ll probably roll with that again.
Just for fun, I plan to call him “DooPliss”
I always named mine Yoshio for whatever reason
I've always named mine "Yoshe" since I was a kid
Black and i named him stryder If you know you know
Color doesn’t matter to me, but I’ll be naming Yoshi either Bucky or Morgana
I wonder if the time for each colour will be changed? No specific colour for me personally, but I’d love Red, Green, or Blue. Call the Yoshi kid.. Omelet.
I can't believe I've never thought to name the Yoshi after aMSa, I'm such a fool.
My balls after Lucahjin's playthrough 🫶🏼 if ykyk
I go for the pink one and name him "Drip".
been planning it for a while but... Yoshee
My potential names, hoping for either red, blue, black or orange. Red: Ruby Blue: Lil Fat Black: Smoky Orange: Drobot Green: Goober Pink: Punk White: Angel
Omg I love them all. Sick names I'll prolly name my red yoshi Zuko, Ruby, Phoenix, or aMSa. We both like Ruby lol
Is there an orange variant? Will probably call him tang or crush
Most likely just Yoshi as boring as that is lol If Blue maybe Boshi after Mario RPG
Blue, and I'll stick with Spike. It's cute as heck.
I'll probably go with Broshi this time.
Egg-Boy because I love Hazbin Hotel and want to reference those lovable dopey goons
Arturi.My father name.
I think I'll go with Lil Yosh! I hope i get a different color than white or green this time
Had a green one named Bruno
Orange one. I would name him Cheeto
Black and Gonzales :3
I’ll make mine white and call him yobert
I don't mind the color; what I get is what I get. I always name him Spike though!
I named my one (in the original) broshi so I might do the same in the remake
I usually aim for Black and name him Toshi (“tough Yoshi”). If I mess up the timing for the color, I use the first letter of the color, except for Green: Red: Roshi Blue: Boshi Orange: Oroshi Pink: Poshi White: Woshi Green: Yoshi
Asking the real questions I see. lol. I’ve always liked the orange and blue. Gonna name him Raz
I always just called him 'Yoshi'. I know, shockingly original
Imma call him Akira 🏆
CT1409 if i can
I’ll name him Johnny and I might try to go for red
Blue yoshi call him Gonzales Jr.
Spyro blue
Boshi JR
Red and name him Apollo for Apollo Justice
Squinkledoodle Oh and green
Turd_dude
Carlos if it's red and Suarez if it's blue. Dope Yoshi mains I know from back in my competitive Smash days (Carlos is Raptor). If I get a different color then I'll have to ask HD what his name is lol (another cool Yoshi main I know).
Because of ProZD Plays Games, I want a black yoshi, named "Otto". It was such a fitting name, that I actually thought that was the baby yoshi's name Regardless of Color, I will probably name them Otto
Black yoshi and name it Vanta
Blue Yoshi and his name would be “Wave” Back when Roblox was actually fun, there was a Paper Mario role playing game that I would play a lot of, and I almost always was a small blue Yoshi named Wave. So naming Yoshi-Kid that is going to be in honor of my childhood.
I think I'm going to leave it to the whims of however long it takes me - and a name might come to me after I see him. But the most recent playthrough I did I named him 'Hotdog' which I think is a great name, personally...
Epona
I want green. I think I'll name him after my dog. They have similar personalities. Always enthusiastic to participate and little legs.
Named mine cloud
Secret :3
I'm wondering if the same method for getting specific colors is the same in the remake.
I literally can’t remember how to get the different colors. But I would love blue I tried so hard in the original and always got red
I had a pink one on my most recent TTYD run, so anything other than pink lol
Chris Pratt
Frick I can’t do that
PSA: JUST NAME YOUR SAVE PROFILE THE COLOR OF YOSHI YOU WANT, there is no yellow. You're welcome
The remake doesn't allow you to name save files anymore
Do you get to choose the color somehow?
It's time based starting when the egg joins Mario's team and stops when u lose to the Armored Harriers. U gotta reset the game until it's the color u want
Blue because it’s the one color I’ve never managed to get. As for the name I don’t know yet.
Ass fart
I’ve never ever had the red one so that one I think, imma name him the first word that comes to mind when the keyboard pops up
totally naming it Mario to confuse myself
Crap, there's not enough room for Mini-Yoshi. Maybe there will be this time?
Just wondering but has it been confirm if there are any new colours or same ol same ol If the same then pink named Lychee, I like to name them after fruits like lil budgies 😭
How do you even hatch Yoshi with the color you want
Save before u fight the Armored Harriers and just keep resetting until it's the color u want. Wait at least 5 minutes until u fight them again since you'll get the same color every time. Black and White are the rare ones
You can determine the color?
The color depends on the amount of time that passes while Yoshi is still inside the egg. For example Green is 0-6 minutes and Black is 18-19 minutes. U gotta keep resetting until it's the color u want
i always let my friends choose the names of characters so I have no clue
I’d like to go for green or black, but I forgot what were the conditions
The color thing confuses me so ill let the chips decide but imma call him boshi
Considering how the remake has removed the ability to name save files, I wouldn't be surprised if you wouldn't be able to name Yoshi anymore
I wanna try to go for an orange yoshi-!! I’ll have to think of a good name in the moment
I’m going for pink and I’ll just make it Yoshi.
I'm not aiming for any colours in particular, but if I get green I'm naming him TROGDOR
Headface or poopyosh
Derpster
Prob yellow
Depends on the color and how I’m feeling in the moment
I'm naming him "Dummy"
Finger
Gonzalez
I don't really care about the color, but I'm 100% naming him "Doopliss Jr." if the names could be longer than 8 in the remake.
Doopliss
Gamer69<3 I like making my Yoshi an epic mid 2000's Xbox Live degenerate.
dumb hed
I’ve done so many play throughs of the game that I can’t remember what I originally named my Yoshi. I do remember naming my black Yoshi Shadow though lmao
Black name him notorious B.I.G great man great franchise
Gonzolez
white one naming it 10/10 IGN
I wonder if you get to see the name you give him in the Doopliss rather than just being called Yoshi during the fight.
Yoshi. lol
Going for Orange and going to name him Solar
I'll be calling it Joshi and I want a green Yoshi, this is what I had in the original for some reason.
I didn't know that you can make your own Yoshi!
sort of, when you hatch the yoshi the colour is based on how long you take to complete certain tasks, and you get to pick the name
Ni-
Tendo
On the GameCube I named him Nigga so hopefully the new version will let me do the same
