* DragonInChief: Given that Bowser is still JustAKid, Kamek largely operates on his own and both [[BigBad orchestrates the series' plots and commands the Koopa Troop himself]].

* ArchEnemy: Kamek serves as this to the entire Yoshi clan, as his plans constantly endanger them or the children they protect.



* BigBad: [[EvilSorcerer Kamek]], who is usually directly responsible for the series' conflicts and actively hinders the Yoshis at every turn since Baby Bowser is too young to pose much of a threat (at least, not without [[MakeMyMonsterGrow some magic]]).



** ''Yoshi's Story'' boils down to "Bowser stole the Yoshis' favorite tree and now they want it back".



** ''New Yoshi's Island'' is even more of an excuse, since it outright {{retcon}}s the original's ending just to have the same adventure again.

** ''Crafted World'' is basically the same plot as ''Yoshi's Story'', just a bit longer and with Kamek this time.

%%* * GreenHillZone: Much of the The first world worlds in all of the games tend to be the standard grassy hills and plains that ''Mario'' fans expect. However, given the numerous and distinct art styles, they often incorporate SceneryPorn in the series.backgrounds to spice things up.



* HijackedByGanon: Despite Kamek being the BigBad of the series, nearly every game somehow ends with a FinalBoss against Bowser.



* PapaWolf: Yoshi himself. Except for bottomless pits and a few instant-death traps, nothing can actually ''kill'' a Yoshi, and the player can kamikaze through entire ''hordes'' of enemies if necessary to get Baby Mario back before the timer runs out.

** Also Kamek, who is effectively raising Baby Bowser on his own in place of his missing parents. Literally all of Kamek's plots revolve around either trying to protect or appease the bratty Koopa prince, and he ''[[BadlyBatteredBabysitter suffers]]'' for it more often than not.


Added DiffLines:

* SceneryPorn: Every game in the series has a unique art style (save ''Yoshi's Island DS'', which largely mimics the original's), and the environments are loaded with details and colorful visuals to keep kids engaged and make casual gamers stare in awe.
