Y'know in Wind Waker and Four Swords Adventures, the Link(s) get those power bracelets, giving them the ability to left heavy stuff? Yeah, this is the same idea. Link could never lift Yoshi and walk around with him above his head still. There's a difference between the ability to lift something above one's head and the ability to carry around.
Bleh, Yoshi's in the wrong spot. He's slipping! And the speech bubbles were quickly made in MS Paint.
