**Yoshi**, also known as Yoshi Cool was one of the first six newcomers to compete on Bowser Party in Season 2, and also returned for the third and fourth seasons. He was selected for the first all-star season, and also returned for the sixth and seventh season on Skype. He took a fairly long break, but returned for Season 14 of Discord, as well as being one of the first contestants of Season 2-1.

## Prior to the Series

Yoshi was someone who I don't think I had talked to much prior to the season, however it was thanks to a certain veteran that we did meet, and ultimately how Yoshi joined the second season.

## Bowser Party

Season 2:

Yoshi started off in the second season, being placed on Team Heroic Creatures. Being placed on a team with his friend certainly helped Yoshi this season, allowing the two to make it to merge, however Yoshi ended up being eliminated first in a double with someone who'd later return, ultimately leaving just him with 8th place.

Season 3:

Yoshi later returned for season 3, being placed on Team Mysterious Mushrooms. Yoshi's team managed to fare extremely well in the earlier half of the game, likely due to Team Quick Fist. However, once they were all eliminated, the Mushrooms struggled more through eliminations, however Yoshi was lucky enough to make it to merge once again, and actually being able to go fairly far into it, being one of the last two members on his team, before getting 7th place that season.

Season 4:

Yoshi then returned for Season 4, being part of Team Super Sexy Senpai's. Yoshi's team did fairly well for themselves at the start of pre-merge, only losing two members before going on a streak, however soon they started to lose consistently and just before the merge, he was pulled alongside another veteran for unknown reasons, typing for 8th/9th.

Season 5:

Due to his overall solid runs in the series thus far, Yoshi was invited and ultimately accepted into the All-Star season alongside twelve others to compete for the season. He was placed on the Soul Sucking Seekers, managing to survive a fair amount of eliminations on his team before his third merge in the series. For once, Yoshi did not leave that early into merge, actively making it to the final five through a pact, and then to his first finale, ultimately getting the least amount of votes on the jury, and receiving 3rd place.

Season 6:

Yoshi returned once again to Season 6, but in a rather convoluting way. He was taken out of the season early on due to not being available, being replaced with the only newcomer that season. Then he later debuted into the merge, going a bit farther into that season before getting out in 6th place.

Season 7:

Yoshi's final season on Skype was Season 7, where he ended up making his second finale in the series, once again getting 3rd in a finale, unfortunately not much to say thanks to the Ridonculous Race format.

Season 14:

Yoshi took a break for a long while in the series, before making his grand return in Season 14, being placed on the Wakanda Warriors. Yoshi's original team managed fairly well, only losing one of his friends in the season. However, in Episode 5 a team shuffle was done and he was now placed on the Rolling Thunders, which honestly did not go so well. However, Yoshi managed to stay out of eliminations and end up making it to yet another merge. However, similarly to his Skype season, he ended up receiving 8th place in a form of an auto elimination, to my knowledge.

Season 2-1:

Yoshi's last appearance as of now is in Season 2-1, where he was placed on the Space Invaders. His team did not win a single challenge with him on it however, and he was kicked out in episode 2, receiving 15th place thanks to a quitter.

## Current Status and Overall Thoughts

Yoshi has since not returned to the series, and to my knowledge has not shown interest in doing so. He is gladly open to if he so chooses.

Regardless of that, Yoshi was a fairly great player for the series, having an interesting underdog arc throughout his time in the Skype era, and even in the Discord seasons. Yoshi's always been fairly loyal to Liam, which I respect and I think their dynamic probably helped them both throughout seasons. Yoshi's had his downs, but he's managed to get a few good placements up there so overall, he did good.

## Other ORGs

Yoshi did play in one other ORG of mine, that being of course Total Drama All-Stars Take II, my first ever long-term ORG. He competed as Izzy, and while originally the second boot, he made a return during the merge and ended up placing 8th.

## Trivia

* Yoshi's first placements in both Skype and Discord were in 8th place.
* In every season of Skype that Yoshi was on a team for, he always ended up playing with Marcus.
	+ Marcus was also the sole finalist for his team in Season 2, their first ever season together.
* In all but one season, Yoshi has always competed as the character Yoshi from the Mario franchise.
