Article on Super Mario Wiki Shy Guy

Shy Guys (ヘイホー, Heihō) are found in the Yoshi's Story stage of Super Smash Bros. Melee, and both Mario Circuit and Yoshi's Island of Super Smash Bros. Brawl. They appear in the Super Smash Bros. games as Propeller Shy Guys (Super Smash Bros. and Super Smash Bros. Melee) and Fly Guys (Super Smash Bros. Brawl), but are simply called Shy Guys.

Super Smash Bros.

Flying Shy Guys sometimes appear as background characters on the Yoshi's Island stage.

Super Smash Bros. Melee

Shy Guys appear as both enemies and a trophy in Super Smash Bros. Melee. The subspecies of Shy Guys, the Propeller Shy Guys, can sometimes appear on Yoshi's Story, carrying food that can be dropped by attacking them. A trophy of them can also be obtained. The Fly Guys are particularly known for constantly gimping Ness, who uses a projectile to recover.

Trophy description

There are many types of Shy Guys: they've been known to walk on the ground, fly through the air, traipse about on stilts, wear flowers or camouflage, throw balls, swing balls, swing bats, sail on pirate ships, carry fruit, do the Bamboo Dance, ride submarines, play guitar, play tennis, wear red, come in large or small sizes, steal people's toys, cause mischief...

Super Smash Bros. Brawl

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, and two-dimensional Fly Guys also appear in Yoshi's Island, where they occasionally fly in, carrying food. The Fly Guys can be attacked. The Fly Guys are famous for constantly gimping Ness, who uses a projectile to recover.

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?

Super Smash Bros. for 3DS

Shy Guys are confirmed to return on the Rainbow Road stage in the 3DS version as hazards like in Mario Circuit. It is unknown if they can be attacked like in Brawl. Light blue, yellow, and red Shy Guys appear in Smash Run as enemies.
