| '''Propeller Shy Guys'''<ref name=seal>''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' sticker.</ref>, also known as '''Flying Shy Guys''',<ref>"'''Flying Shy Guys''': These Shy Guys fly through the sky with the aid of little propellers attached to their heads. The fruit-bearing ones disappear once you steal their fruit. Should you run into a formation of four, defeating all of them with one egg toss wins you a melon!"- [[Nintendo 64]] Game Secrets, 1999 Edition [[Prima Games|Prima]] Official Strategy Guide. Page 109.</ref> are a variant of [[Shy Guy]]s that first appeared in ''[[Yoshi's Story]]''. They fly via a helicopter-like-pack which they carry on their back consisting of a two-blade propeller (on top of the pack) which spins on a horizontal axis and an eight-blade propeller (at the back of the pack) which spins on a vertical axis. These propellers are powered by the Propeller Shy Guys themselves, who continuously pedal with their feet to remain airborne, although the pedals are not visible.

| ==History==
| |
| ===''Yoshi's Story''===
| |
| In ''[[Yoshi's Story]]'', Propeller Shy Guys appear flying above [[Baby Yoshi]] carrying [[fruit]]. The Propeller Shy Guy will continue to fly back and forth in a particular area, but will immediately fly off-screen as soon as Baby Yoshi eats the fruit from the Propeller Shy Guy's hands. Propeller Shy Guys may appear alone, or in a swarm; after appearing they disappear off of the screen, reappearing in the background, and in the foreground again. They can be defeated by Baby Yoshi like any other Shy Guy; with the exception of the elite [[Black Shy Guy]], who has its own special characteristics.

| ====''Super Smash Bros. Melee''====
| |
| Propeller Shy Guys appear as a stage element, and as a trophy. They appear as enemies on the [[Yoshi's Story (stage)|Yoshi's Island: Yoshi's Story]] stage, carrying [[food]]. When attacked softly, or if an object is thrown at them, the Propeller Shy Guy drops his food and flies off the screen; if they are knocked out with an attack, they drop the food they are carrying, and spin downwards off the screen. If food is disabled in the item switch, they do not bring food. They also sometimes appear in the background of the Yoshi's Island stage from ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'', renamed Past Stages: Yoshi's Island.
