====''Super Mario Sunshine''====
====''Super Mario Galaxy''====
Yellow Toad first appears in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', where he is one of the five young Toads that accompany [[Mario]], [[Princess Peach]], and [[Toadsworth]] on their vacation to [[Isle Delfino]]. Upon arrival, the group finds the island a mess. Soon after, the villain [[Shadow Mario]] appears and kidnaps Peach. This causes the Toads (Yellow Toad among them) extreme sadness and worry. The Toads provide no help, as they spend most of their time in [[Delfino Plaza]]. Yellow Toad is usually found alongside [[Mailtoad|Purple Toad]] and [[Toadsworth]]; often running around worrying about the Princess. Out of the six Toads in the game, these three tend to worry the most. In the ending, the Toads are shown to be much happier as Mario rescues Peach and cleans the island. Yellow Toad is seen enjoying himself during the end credits alongside the other Toads.
[[File:SMG Yellowtoad.png|thumb|Yellow Toad sleeping in ''Super Mario Galaxy'']]
Yellow Toad makes his first appearance in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' as one of the members of the [[Toad Brigade]]. Out of the group, Yellow Toad seems to be the most careless and lazy Toad in the group, as he is often seen sleeping in the game. He even sleeps in the snow in the [[Freezeflame Galaxy]]. At times when he is not asleep, Yellow Toad can be seen as a rather immature character as seen in the [[Purple Coin]] challenge in [[Deep Dark Galaxy]], where he is seen dancing under a spotlight while the other Toads stay around the area cautiously.
 
====''Super Mario Galaxy 2''====
Yellow Toad also appears in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' for a second time as a member of the [[Toad Brigade]]. He can often be found in different galaxies where he can either be found helping Mario or sleeping like in the previous game. He is also one of the many characters that can be found on the [[Starship Mario]]. He stands near a Warp Pad that leads to the Toad Brigade's [[Starshroom]].
 
====''Super Mario Odyssey''====
[[File:Yellow Toad SMO.jpg|thumb|120px|left|Yellow Toad in the [[Mushroom Kingdom (Super Mario Odyssey)|Mushroom Kingdom]] [[Crazy Cap]] store in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]''.]]
In ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'', Yellow Toad can be seen as an employee of a travelling [[Crazy Cap]] store inside the Toad Brigade's [[Starshroom]] alongside [[Mailtoad]], located in the [[Lost Kingdom]], [[Moon Kingdom]] and [[Mushroom Kingdom (Super Mario Odyssey)|Mushroom Kingdom]]; he runs the yellow coin section. He also appears near the [[Odyssey]] on the [[Dark Side]] after the story objective [[Arrival at Rabbit Ridge!]] is complete and says that he and [[Hint Toad|the]] [[Banktoad|other]] [[Mailtoad|Toads]] are there on a big expedition. In this game, he retains his exploration outfit and backpack from ''[[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker]]'', and also wears a [[Crazy Cap#Explorer Hat|safari hat]] when on the Dark Side. Largely contrasting his other appearances, he is always fully awake and does not seem to retain his laziness.
 
====''Super Mario Maker 2''====
Yellow Toad appears in the Story Mode in ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]''. Unlike the other colored Toads in it, he retains the personality and traits of his counterpart from ''Super Mario Galaxy''. During the first part of the story, he remains asleep to the right of the castle, but part of the way through, he will offer Mario a set of three jobs, each of them revolving around completing a level with a [[Stone (Super Mario Maker 2)|Stone]] in hand. With each job completed, Yellow Toad will use the Stone to build an 8-bit sculpture of a different ''Super Mario'' franchise enemy. Once all three are finished, he tells Mario that he is exhausted and wants to take another nap.
 
====''Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury''====
Yellow Toad appears in ''[[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury]]'' as a playable character in the [[Captain Toad's Adventures]] levels, when playing in multiplayer mode. He has the same appearance as in ''Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker''. He also appears in the ''Bowser's Fury'' mode, though not before the main story has been completed. Along with the other members of the Toad Brigade, he appears to have been separated from Toadette, who anticipates them on [[Fur Step Island]]. Mario may find Yellow Toad hidden below the bridge supporting [[Slipskate Slope]], reaching by simply hopping off the bridge, alleviated with the use of a [[Propeller Box]]. Confronting Yellow Toad rewards Mario with one of [[Lake Lapcat]]'s [[Cat Shine]]s. As with his rarer though more recent appearances, he appears alert with no symptoms of grogginess.

They are working joyfully, enjoying the [[Mini Mario (toy)|Mini Mario]] toys that were produced there, until [[Donkey Kong]] arrives and steals them. After Mario defeats Donkey Kong in [[Twilight City|Twilight City Plus]], Yellow Toad can be seen alongside [[Mario]], the Mini Marios and the other two Toads, apparently laughing at [[Donkey Kong]], who had lost all of the Mini Marios that he stole. In his anger, Donkey Kong grabs the three Toads and climbs up on top of a tall tower. However, Mario defeats him again and saves the Toads.
Yellow Toad reappears in ''[[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker]]''. Much like his previous appearances, Yellow Toad is almost always seen sleeping. His sleepiness is seen to be contagious as he is capable of even making [[Captain Toad]] fall asleep beside him if he stands near him. Much like the other Toad Brigade members in this game, Yellow Toad sports a uniform similar to the Captain and a backpack.

However, there are instances in which Yellow Toad aids the Captain and is seen to be fully awake. Such situations involve certain levels where Yellow Toad and the other Toad Brigade members must follow Captain Toad in order to unlock certain bonuses and tools in order to find the Power Star.

Yellow Toad, like many other characters in the series, is still a rather undeveloped character. His personality is often seen changing in many of the games that he does appear in. In ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', he is seen as a rather worrisome character despite the fact that he is meant to be a jolly character as seen in the intro. In ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', he is shown to be a rather lazy character as he is seen sleeping for nearly the whole game. ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', however showed a direct opposite personality in comparison to his worrisome self in ''Super Mario Sunshine'' as he is able to bravely join the Mario brothers on their journey to rescue [[Peach]].
