The '''Yo Bro''' is a [[Hammer Bro]] variant encountered at [[Woohoo Hooniversity]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]''. Its name and appearance reference [[wikipedia:hip hop culture|hip-hop culture]], with "yo" and "bro" being commonly used words among hip-hop-oriented youths, and wearing baggy clothing common among these youths as well, and the name is also a pun on "yo-yo" and Hammer Bro. It sports a fez with a small plant on the front, and two yo-yos based on [[Koopa Shell]]s, one [[Red Shell|red]] and one [[Green Shell|green]]. Whichever yo-yo it spins will indicate whether it attacks [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]]. It has a charge-up ability that lets it deal more damage, and can also feint an attack, which is indicated when the "spinning" sound is not heard. Like other Koopa-like enemies in the game, Yo Bros. are healed by fire, though they are weak to thunder. Yo Bros. occasionally accompany [[Laser Snifit]]s in battle. However, Yo Bros aren't fought anywhere in Woohoo Hooniversity's basement.
