A Dancing Spear Guy.

Dancing Spear Guys first appeared in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island and are a variant of the Spear Guy (which made their first appearence in the same game). They dance to move, and Yoshi must evade their spears, which these Dancing Spear Guys hold. Because this Shy Guy moves itself wildly, it moves the spear wildly as well, making it for the poor dinosaur to jump over it. However, their eatable, so Yoshi can just swallow them. They were (without counting the spear) smaller than normal Spear Guys. They also miss the shield and the feather. Spear Guys were red, while Dancing Spear Guys are yellow. And the spear of the Dancing Spear Guy was taller than the spear of the normal Spear Guy.

Differences between Spear Guys and Dancing Spear Guys.

They reappear in Yoshi's Island DS. They got now a greener shade on their masks, (due to every other Shy Guy that appeared in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island got a blue shade) and they also move different. They hop when moving, after every hop they make a circle and then they jump in height, then they hop again to move. They also grew in size. However they're still smaller than Spear Guys, they've almost the same length as a Spear Guy. Also, they hold their spear higher, so their spear is lower in height. To make the spear even more lower in height, it shrunk, so the normal Spear Guy's spear was taller instead of the Dancing Spear Guy's. But they still miss the feather and shield, and are yellow.

The idea was simple but effective in other Mario games. Jungle Guys from Paper Mario and Chuck Guys from Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga additionally do the same, but instead for harder to avoid, it is a call to others. They are not to be confused with another dancing maniac Shy Guy, the Limbo Guy, who made his appearence in Yoshi's Story.

Dancing Spear Guys made a surprise appearance in a Mario Party 4; however, they were holding torches.
