Shy Guys that can be seen driving karts as Mute City-style hazards on the Mario Circuit stage, that inflict 15% damage to a character when contact is made.

Trophy description

A character in a white mask with black eyes and mouth that appears in a number of Mario and Yoshi games. Although Shy Guys' actions are varied--from flying to carrying objects--their true faces are still a mystery. If only for an instant, who wouldn't want to see an unmasked Shy Guy?

Shy Guys appear as stage hazards on Rainbow Road, where, similar to their role in Mario Circuit, drive karts which can hurt characters. Unlike in Mario Circuit, though, they can't be attacked.

Light blue, yellow, red, and green Shy Guys appear in Smash Run as enemies. Light blue Shy Guys have more health, red ones deal more damage, green ones are faster, and yellow ones jump higher. Each type of Shy Guy drops stat boosts related to its specialty: Defense, Attack, Speed, and Jump respectively.

In Super Smash Bros. for Wii U

Shy Guys appear as stage hazards in both the old and the new Mario Circuit stages. In the new Mario Circuit they can't be attacked.
