It has been requested that this article be rewritten and expanded to include more information.
A Fly Guy is a sub-species of Shy Guy. They have propellers on their heads and have various jobs. They are not to be confused with Flying Shy Guys or Sky Guys.
History
Yoshi series
Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island
Fly Guys first appeared in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island. In the game they carried Red Coins, 1-Ups, Coins, ? Clouds or even bombs. In some levels one of them would swoop down carrying a ? Cloud or a Red Coin, and if Yoshi didn't get them in time the Fly Guy would float back up and laugh mockingly.
Yoshi's Story
Fly Guys make an appearance in Yoshi's Story. They would come in a line of four. If the Yoshi could defeat all four with one egg, he would be awarded with a melon. They appear in Stage 3-3: Poochy and Nippy, Stage 3-4: Frustration, and Stage 5-3: Shy Guy Limbo.
Yoshi's Island DS
Fly Guys behaved similarly in Yoshi's Island DS as they did in the original, except they did not carry bombs and their laugh is much, much higher pitched. 5 of them, one carrying a Red Coin, 2 with 1-ups, and 2 with Coins, appeared in the Island Museum. It may seem like they were in the aerial exhibit, but they were actually in the Shy Guy exhibit.
Super Mario series
Super Mario 64
In Super Mario 64 and Super Mario 64 DS, Fly Guys appear in Shifting Sand Land. Here, they are called Fire Guys. These ones spit fireballs at him trying to make the plumber fall onto the quicksand. They also appear in Tiny-Huge Island. They can also dive in to try and hit the plumber. A single Fly Guy appears on Tall Tall Mountain next to Ukiki. A single one also appear in Rainbow Cruise. These are the only games where they have the ability to produce flames. If Mario stomps a Fly Guy in Super Mario 64, he will Spin Jump high up into the air. This allows him to reach high places. The Fly Guys share this effect with the Spindrifts.
Mario Party series
Fly Guys have been noted for some important roles in the Mario Party series; for example, Fly Guy is responsible for Duel mini-games in Mario Party 5. A secret technique with the mic causes Fly guys to fly across the menu screen in Mario Party 6. However, they only appear through cameos. Two Fly Guys also appear on the game cover's boxart of Mario Party 8 (as seen at the top of the page). They also appear in the mini-game King of the Thrill, where they carry the losing team as seen in the background. Additionally, in the same mini-game, if two characters fall off at the same time during a fight, a Fly Guy will carry the character who falls off just after the other falls off up to the top platform for the next part of the fight (or for the victory if the character falls off during the last part of the mini-game). Two Fly Guys are also seen holding the 8000 points sign in Test for the Best.
Mario Tennis series
Mario Power Tennis
Fly Guy debuted in the Mario Tennis series with Mario Power Tennis, as a secret character known for his trickiness. He could be unlocked by beating the Mushroom Cup, the Flower Cup and Star Cup in singles. His Offensive Power Shot is the Tornado Twist, which envelopes the returning player in a whirlwind while messing up controls, and his Defensive Power Shot is the Tornado Return, which he uses a whirlwind to return the ball from anywhere.

Halfway in the top screen means Luigi, All the way top means Mario. It can be countered with the hammer. Every counter or hit makes the bomb lose one number. If it hits zero it will explode in the Fly Guy's hand and damage it. If the Fly Guy survives, it'll get a new bomb. The other is to rock back and forth then throw it. The number is times it rocks depends on who gets hit. If it immediately throws it, it will be to Luigi, 2 rocks Mario, 3 rocks Luigi, and so on. This can only be dodged by jumping.
They also appeared if the player caused a Boom Guy to lose its launcher. A pair of red Fly Guys will drop a new one on its head.
