Paper Mario Stats

Anti-Guy

HP: 50, Attack: 10, Defense: 0

Tattle: This is an Anti Guy. His attacks are so intense that he's also called Deadly Guy. His attack power is 12 when he does an acrobatic attack, so dodge it! This guy is for real, so we'd better take him seriously.

General Guy

Max HP: 30

Attacks

• Bomb Toss: Tosses a bomb at Mario. Does 4 damage.
• Lightning Slam: If you don't get rid of the bulb in the tank, it'll shoot a lightning bolt at Mario and his partner. Does 2 damage to Mario's ally. Does 5 damage to Mario.

Defense: 2

Tattle: This is General Guy in his tank. The tank seems to be dangerous even though it's a toy. Not only does the General give commands from the tank, but he also throws bombs and uses electric attacks. The power of his electric attack is 5, and your party member takes 2 damage points, so defend yourself carefully. He'll lose the electric attack if we break the light bulb. Normal fighting styles seem ineffective because the tank is well fortified.

Groove Guy

HP: 7, Attack: 2, Defense: 0

Tattle: This is a Groove Guy. Groove Guys wear weird clothes. They're probably stage clothes. Pssh... You know performers... They shake their booties to call in reinforcements. They also spin around in front of you and make you feel dizzy. These rock 'n' rollers are a drag, so let's ditch 'em as fast as we can.

Medi Guy

HP: 7, Attack: 1, Defense: 0

Tattle: This is a Medi Guy. Medi Guys are the emergency workers of the Shy Guy clan. They have the power to heal their wounded companions. Of course, they also attack. We'd better hurry up and take them out of the mix. It's a pain if they keep fixing all the damage we do.

Pyro Guy

HP: 7, Attack: 4, Defense: 0

Tattle: This is a Pyro Guy. Pyro Guys are on fire, so any contact with them will cause damage. They're tough opponents, mainly because their attack power is so high. Any attacks that involve water or snow are our best bet because,...well...you know.

Regular Shy Guy

HP: 7, Attack: 2, Defense: 0

Tattle: This is a Shy Guy. They're ne'er-do-wells. Big time rascals. No good... They occasionally do acrobatic attacks that have an attack power of 3. Who knows what lies in the hearts of these troublemakers? I guess they're dangerous, but they're pretty small time.

Shy Squad

HP: 15, Attack: 1 (attack power is equal to how many HP they have), Defense: 0

Tattle: This is the Shy Squad. It'll attack us with all its members at once. The number of times we're attacked will equal the number of Shy Guys in the Squad. Its attack power is huge when there are many guys, but it drops fast for each one that falls. Let's use an attack that does tons of damage so we can decrease their numbers and increase our chances!

Shy Stack

HP: 10, Attack: 1 (Attack power is equal to how many shy guys there are), Defense: 0

Tattle: This is a Shy Stack. Whoa, this pile has an incredible sense of balance! Look at that stack! Its attack power equals the number of Guys in the stack. It will be 4 if there are four Shy Guys stacked up. If you have the Spin Hammer ability, you can knock 'em off one by one. Obviously, their attack power decreases when there are fewer of 'em in the stack.

Sky Guy

HP: 7, Attack: 3, Defense: 0

Tattle: This is a Sky Guy. Sky Guys are master balloonists. We can attack the balloon, too. Once they fall, they're just like normal Shy Guys. I wish I had a balloon so I could float... That looks awesome!

Spy Guy

HP: 7, Attack: 2, Defense: 0

Tattle: This is a Spy Guy. Spy Guys look like they're ready for war in their spiffy camouflage gear! They change their weapons each time they're attacked. You'd best try to avoid their hammer attack! Every time you're hit by it, you'll lose one of your commands!

Stilt Guy

HP: 7, Attack: 4, Defense: 0

Tattle: This is Stilt Guy. Yes, as the name suggests, Stilt Guys are Shy Guys on Stilts. I mean, it seems pretty obvious to me... If you attack 'em by shaking the ground, they'll fall off their stilts and become normal Shy Guys.
