Shy Guy Limbo is a level in Yoshi's Story in page 5, filled with bamboo dancers, which are Shy Guy pairs with limbo sticks. The hidden Heart Coin letter for this stage is A.
Layout[edit]
At the beginning of the level is a Lakitu that drops Melons and spiked balls. After the Lakitu are some pits, some Shy Guys, and a group of bamboo dancers. At this point, Yoshi can Ground Pound a red flower to spawn some clouds, which lead to the first Miss Warp. Next, Yoshi can lick a parachuting heart, causing coins to spawn in a heart shape. The next area contains Tehee Butterflies and some Surprise Balls. Licking above the highest one makes Yoshi grab onto another one, leading to a hidden blue Warp Pipe. If Yoshi goes in it, he can play Broad Jump to earn up to 7 Melons. Continuing past the pipe takes Yoshi the second Miss Warp, and an area with some Shy Guys on Pogo Sticks and pits. Jumping in a pot takes Yoshi to the next part of the level.
The second part of the level contains some floating fruits and the third Miss Warp. Afterwards, a Lakitu appears, trying to dump water on Yoshi that can push him away. This area contains some narrow pits and Floating Shy Guys that hold Melons. Past it are many cloud platforms with Do-Drops hanging from them. The final stretch contains multiple bamboo dancers and Flying Shy Guys.

Storybook segment[edit]
The sun was shining, so the Yoshis began to happily sing. Out came the limbo Shy Guys, who kept the beat, while the Yoshis danced. And the Yoshis did so with more grace than you'd expect from a dinosaur.
