To defeat a Boo Guy, the Yoshi can stomp on it or swallow it to make [[Yoshi Egg]]s. The Boo Guy can also be spat out causing it to roll on the ground and destroy any enemies in its path until it falls offscreen or collides with a wall. | ||

Boo Guys that handle a mace ([[Tekkyū Dosun]]) will drop it on the ground periodically. Once the mace hits the ground, the Boo Guy then takes time to pull it back up, dropping it again once it reaches the top. Other Boo Guys push a wheel in groups to operate a long, revolving [[Spinner|spiked ball]]. Sometimes, Boo Guys are stationed in long rows in the ceilings and pass bombs from one to another, dropping them on Yoshi when he is underneath ([[Relay Heihō]]). | ||

Boo Guys return in ''[[Yoshi's Woolly World]]'' and ''[[Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World]]'' and can be eaten by Yoshi, forming a white [[yarn ball]]. In the level [[Spooky Scraps! Don't Get Spooked!]], Boo Guys turn into an evil shadow when behind the hanging paper, which means they can chase Yoshi and cannot be eaten. | |||
