- Thanks to Triple Pain P on the Glitz Pit Discord for finding the Pokey thing that sparked this video, like, the start of the pandemic ago; finally got around to making a proper showcase of it.

6:40 OF COURSE HE'S GYRATING YOU JUST RIPPED HIS TENTACLE STRAIGHT OFF HIS FLESH
The pokey segment thing was likely to reference how Yoshi eats one segment at a time in Super Mario World
Yeah, which's why it's surprising that that is supported, but not actually used in-game.
Confused Yoshi swallows Mario
A thought I didn't have last time I saw this video... I think it's likely that swallowing was originally a _standard_ behaviour of the move. And that later they went back and reverted it, but forgot to do so for the Pokey single-head case (which was a special case they missed). It would explain the unused variations for a bomb exploding, etc.
I would imagine that to be the case, as well.
you know in vanilla ttyd yoshi can gulp the shadow queen while invincible, it does no dmg but looks amusing
Lore accurate Yoshi
Yoshi could eat the world if he wanted to.
'Killing one of blooper's tentacles works without crashing but blooper constantly gyrates [in pain] until attacked again'
I mean what do you expect you literally ripped its frickin tentacle off
How would you like your arm ripped off and eaten eh?
This is one of my favourite things about Paper Mario, the sheer amount of unique interactions with different kinds of skills and enemies is honestly one of the things that seperates this from other RPGs
This dino twerp is eating me out of house and home!
Thanks for posting this! It's a truly amazing discovery. I'm particularly fascinated by unused behaviors like this that manage to slip into the final game, but only under circumstances so obscure that they go unnoticed for years. I have to wonder how many people have seen Yoshi eat Pokeys whole with Gulp and shrugged it off as nothing special because it just looks right, lol. Those completely unused behaviors are really interesting too; especially that unfinished fireball. I have to wonder if there is more stuff like this hidden in the battle code.
Man. I can't help but feel like the devs really just wanted to keep all of Yoshi's moves strong and it just not meant to be that we get a 0 star points gained option outside of Fright Masks
It doesn't give you 0 Star Points; I was just really high-leveled on the file I was testing on. As poor as the Gulp we got is, I feel like a single-target grounded Gale Force would be strictly worse, lol.
@@jdaster64 Touché.
I think it's because they didn't want to cheat players out of being able to consistently use Gulp to damage two enemies at a time, which is one of its most useful properties.
Yoshi swallowing Hooktail is so funny!
I AM LIL' YOSHI, DEVOURER OF THE UNIVERSE!
look ma I discovered the pokey thing!
This is really cool stuff, I wonder why it all went (mostly) unused
I feel like you have plans to implement this into something
Not really (definitely not doing it for Infinite Pit); I'd been meaning to document this for a long time but I was out of town for several months right after this was discovered.
Huh thats really intresting
I'm like 3 years late, but what happens if a confused Yoshi eats Mario?
Confused party members are only allowed to perform certain actions in the vanilla game; in partners' case they can't use attacks other than their normal one. If Gulp were allowed to target and work on Mario (in confusion or otherwise), the game would crash due to expecting there to be a Mario actor in battle at all times, specifically when trying to read his current HP when updating the status bar.
First we had Mummipokey, now we have Yummipokey
What happens if confused Yoshi used Gulp on Mario?

What kind of monster would eat Vivian.
Could I use a clip of Yoshi swallowing a Pokey in a video I'm working on?
I just came from that video!
Hope they bring it back in the remake
I wonder if some of these will be added back in the remake?
