I love Yoshi's b-air. It's definately one of his best moves in his arsenal. It can shieldpoke, combo, cancel out several projectiles, and a bunch of other good things. It's a nightmare to the fat and/or tall characters, so I usually abuse it on them. Since Yoshi's b-air has no ending lag whatsoever, I usually use a n-air or u-air right after it.
Are there any disjointed hitboxes during this attack?

I thought so. There were times in which I was able to hit my opponents at a surprising distance with Yoshi's bair.
I think retreating b-airs are very effective.

Note: Don't use this move on Luigi unless you KNOW that you'll hit all 4 flicks.

Why? Isn't is sometimes beneficial to not hit with the last swipe, so you can follow up another move?

Sry. I left out the part mentioning Luigi >.> If we cancel the hits, he'll just Nair us out of our attack.

Is Luigi the only character we should watch out for while using Yoshi's b-air?
No, there are quite a few characters that are not very nice to Yoshi when you don't catch them with the right hits I think... cos it happens to me sometimes. This is only a real threat when you face experienced people who know how to DI properly though, its like Marth being able to UpB out of the Jab, although he can do it and it makes Jab not a safe option its often not a problem because only the experienced and intelligent players know about it/think to try it.
