| | |tattle=This is General Guy in his tank. The tank seems to be dangerous even though it's a toy. Not only does the General give commands from the tank, but he also throws bombs and uses electric attacks. The power of his electric attack is 5, and your party member takes 2 damage points, so defend yourself carefully. He'll lose the electric attack if we break the light bulb. Normal fighting styles seem ineffective because the tank is well fortified. |

| | '''General Guy''' is the leader of the [[Shy Guy]]s and the mastermind responsible for the numerous robberies in [[Toad Town]] during the events of Chapter 4 in ''[[Paper Mario]]''. His main base of operations is the [[Shy Guy's Toy Box]]. He and the [[Shy Guy Army]] were ordered by [[King Bowser]] to guard [[Muskular]], the fourth [[Star Spirit]]. However, he and his troops are very disorganized. In the end, he fights [[Mario]] and his teammates in his [[Toy Tank]] and is defeated. When this happens, he and his army run screaming and once again, a Shy Guy trips twitches on his foot and runs. |
| '''General Guy''' is the leader of an army of [[Shy Guy]]s and the mastermind responsible for the numerous robberies in [[Toad Town]] during the events of Chapter 4 in ''[[Paper Mario]]''. His main base of operations is the [[Shy Guy's Toy Box]], where he rules the local Shy Guys and is in turn very loyal to Bowser. His army obeys him without question and he lauds them for their bravery, although his overconfidence in himself is proven unwarranted once he is defeated by Mario, leaving him screaming and fleeing in panic with the rest of the Shy Guys. He has a straightforward, formal and military-esque way of speaking in general, although at one point he childishly claims that [[Watt]]'s attack is "too strong" and that Mario is cheating. He wears a peaked cap and gray robes decked with shoulder patches and a gold medal with a red ribbon on it. | | [[Image:GeneralGuy_PM.png|left|frame]] |

| ==History==
| | General Guy presumably rules over all Shy Guys loyal to Bowser, although most Shy Guys simply answer to Bowser himself. In ''Paper Mario'''s end parade, General Guy and several [[Groove Guy]]s dance on a float. General Guy appears again in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' as a [[Sticker]]. |
| ===''Paper Mario''===

| [[File:PM General Guy Launches Attack.png|thumb|left|General Guy ordering his troops to attack Mario]]
| |
| [[Bowser|King Bowser]] orders General Guy and his Shy Guys to guard [[Muskular]], the fourth [[Star Spirits|Star Spirit]]. However, General Guy and his troops are very disorganized, which allows [[Mario]] and his partners to easily infiltrate his base and defeat many of his soldiers. Later on, Mario manages to corner a large group of Shy Guys, who manage to escape by breaking through a wall. On the other side of the wall, they are reunited with General Guy. Soon after introducing himself, General Guy prepares to battle Mario for the Star Spirit.
| |
| | |
| Before battling General Guy, Mario must fight the [[Shy Squad]], which has a max [[Heart Point|HP]] of 15. General Guy then summons two [[Stilt Guy]]s, each one having a max HP of 7. After they are defeated, General Guy summons two [[Shy Guy Tower|Shy Stack]]s that each have a max HP of 10. After defeating them, Mario fights General Guy in his tank.
| |
| | |
| General Guy's tank has a max HP of 30, 4 Attack points, and 2 Defense points. The light bulb on his tank is a separate target that can be destroyed, with a max HP of 8 and 1 Defense point. When combining the HP of all enemies in this fight, including the Shy Squad, Stilt Guys, Shy Stacks, General Guy's tank, and its light bulb, they have a collective 87 HP. This gives the fight against General Guy the second-highest HP total in the game, with the highest being tied between [[Bowser]] and the final form of [[The Master]], both having 99 HP.
| |
| | |
| If the light bulb on General Guy's tank is intact, it can release a bolt of electricity, which can deal 5 points of damage and immobilize Mario's current [[Party member|partner]], although Watt is immune to this attack. General Guy's primary attack is throwing [[bomb]]s at Mario that can deal 4 points of damage. After General Guy's tank is defeated, it falls apart, and General Guy flees with the rest of his [[Shy Guy]]s.
| |
| | |
| In the game's ending parade, General Guy and several [[Groove Guy]]s dance on a float. General Guy is the only boss to appear in the nighttime part of the parade. In all versions of the game, two "Heihos" signs are visible on the wall behind General Guy. Heiho is the Japanese name for Shy Guys.
| |
| | |
| ===''Super Mario-kun''===
| |
| General Guy appears as a boss in volume 26 of ''[[Super Mario-kun]]''. Mario attempts attacking the General Guy in a variety of ways (including cross-dressing, holding a bucket of paint and a paintbrush, and walking in something called "Ototo"), General Guy retaliates by electrocuting him. Watt, needing to be recharged, prompts [[Kooper]] to run on a treadmill. Once she is recharged, Watt zaps Mario, causing Mario to go crazy with a hammer and whack General Guy in the face.

| ===''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''===
| |
| General Guy appears again in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' as a [[Sticker (Super Smash Bros. Brawl)|Sticker]] that raises Launch Power by 31 points. | |
