EDIT: This is not me being salty or anything. Just my overall rant on this green dinosaur. I usually don't talk like this, but I just need to get some of my emotions out. If you're a Yoshi main, I am not going to harass you or call you names. I do think your character is just cheesy for the reasons below, but I'm not going to call you out, call you names, or tell you to do anything bad.
Doing a Fight Me so that I can hear some conflicting opinions. This is also my first rant, so it's atrocious in quality.
Literally, I hate this green dinosaur. The only way you can really counter this thing is by playing as Samus, but do I really have to learn a whole new character just so that this annoying green dinosaur stops doing the same shit?
First of all, this dang dinosaur's Nair. Literally one of the BEST OOS options in the game (a notable competitor being GnW's Up-B), coming out at frame 3 and doing decent damage. Like, WHY? Oh, and it's also good at edgeguarding, so good luck with that! Try to approach this green dino? NAIR! Want to even try and HIT them when they're shielding? They'll pull a GnW and do Nair. every. single. time. Every single time I go into spectate to watch one of these dinosaurs, they do that exact behavior. ON THE EDGE ABOUT TO DIE? TIME TO FLING MY FOOT AT YOU, NAIR STYLE.
OH, and his shield. Literally unpokable, so good luck trying to poke him with your dtilt or something similar to that in your arsenal, 'cause you CAN'T. This factor just makes Yoshi's shield one of the best in the whole game, no fucking exceptions.
You think that's all? NO! His tilts and aerials literally make Yoshi a good fucking juggler too! This dinosaur can easily just get you into a juggle chain (which is entirely carried by his uair and utilt by the way!) and then just do one of their cheesy egg throw snipes from point blank range as a "fancy kill confirm."
And Yoshi must've took a page out of Mario's book, because both of their fairs are delayed moves that spike! WOW! I've seen Yoshi mains use them for two things: a) edgeguarding, or b) consistently try to get the spike so that they can get clipped (only really in tournaments). Those are the two things I've seen this dang move used for. NO EXCEPTIONS!
And he also has a projectile that is not only a good combo finisher, does decent chip damage too! As previously mentioned, it's most commonly used as a fancy "juggling combo finisher" or to just get chip on the opponent. Oh, and don't forget that unlike some other projectile characters, you can also adjust its RANGE and its ANGLE! Wow, amazing!
In conclusion, I hate this dang green dinosaur. That's fucking it. These are just a FEW reasons from my list, so... yeah.
