Elena "yo" target="_blank">Yo-yo" target="_blank">Yo" Rodriguez appears in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., portrayed by Natalia Cordova-Buckley. This version is a street-wise Colombian Inhuman whose abilities last the duration of one heartbeat. Introduced in the third season episode "Bouncing Back", she comes into contact with S.H.I.E.L.D. when they investigate her for stealing weapons from the National Police of Colombia's corrupt members after they kill her cousin Francisco. She grows close to Mack, who nicknames her "yo" target="_blank">Yo-yo" target="_blank">Yo" due to her powers, and eventually agrees to join S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Secret Warriors to help them fight Hive's forces. After signing the Sokovia Accords, Rodriguez returned to her life with occasional monitoring by S.H.I.E.L.D. before returning to the team after encountering the Watchdogs and pursuing a relationship with Mack in the fourth season. In the fifth season, Hydra agent Ruby Hale slices off Rodriguez's forearms, but the latter survives and eventually receives robotic prosthetic arms developed by her colleague Leo Fitz, though they initially interfere with her powers due to the messages being sent between her brain and arms not moving fast enough until Fitz fixes the problem. Upon learning Ruby had infused herself with gravitonium, Rodriguez becomes involved in the field to kill her before she can destroy the world with her unstable powers. In the seventh season, Jemma Simmons develops new bionic prosthetics made to resemble her original arms so Rodriguez can work undercover amidst their team's efforts to stop the Chronicoms before they can erase S.H.I.E.L.D. from history. Eventually, Rodriguez realizes that she has been holding herself back and unlocks her powers' full potential, allowing her to move at speed without snapping back to where she started. As of the series finale, Rodriguez has become one of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s top agents.
Cordova-Buckley reprises her role in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Slingshot.
