Pogo Guy from Yoshi's Story

Shy Guys on Pogo Sticks[1] are pogo stick-using Shy Guys that appear only in Yoshi's Story, where they are first encountered in Rail Lift. Most Shy Guys on Pogo Sticks merely stand in a specific spot and jump over and over.

Unlike Stilt Guys, Shy Guys on Pogo Sticks do not need to be dismounted from their rides to be attacked and thus can be defeated by throwing a Yoshi egg at the exposed Shy Guys or swallowing them. Also, much like with normal Shy Guys, the color of the rider can be changed by ground-pounding near it.
