Okay.. So I researched this all night.. I have not been able to find anything about it so PLEASE tell me if I am ******** and blind!

I was kinda angry that YOSHI didn't have a real glide toss and I also wanted to get some banana practice in vs Diddy. So I went to training mode to fool around. Apparently Yoshi can double jump throw cancel which has the same effect as a glide toss! You can go in all which ways with it. This is a quick video I made. I think it shows just the beginning of what can be done with this. It is just like dragonic reversing but way easier and maybe more useful..

Again please tell me if this is old news so I can get rid of this post as fast as possible =)...

I wish I can call it by it's cute name Pride pouncing... to bad naming things after you doesnt fly these days.. Double Jump Throw Cancel Gliding? lolol

Heh, good work, Pride. This is definitely something to add in Yoshi's arsenal against Diddy...

Pride pouncing is not bad. Wait'll a DiddyKong main finds this. Does this make Yoshi a good character to counter diddy?

Eh.. Chain grabbing makes Yoshi a reasonable match up.. I think its either 4:6 diddy or 4.5:5.5 diddy .. Its real close. Banana spam is tough.

It is not just useful against Diddy. You can use it on ZSS armor pieces, turnips, gernades, and robs top.

I was messing around with this and I did the DJC toss then grabbed him after he tripped and then you can start a CG (against diddy).

I totally did that too! I am working right now on my Yoshi dribbling. Can't seem to do it as well as Diddy though... Throwing the banana down sliding back picking up the new one, throwing down sliding forward picking up the new one etc...

Diddy cant really spam bananas against Yoshi since Yoshi slides so far after tripping from a banana. Id have to say 5.5/4.5 in Yoshi's favor.

Edit: Sorry if this is somewhat offtopic
