Tattle This is a Sky Guy. Sky Guys are master balloonists. Max HP: 7, Attack Power: 3, Defense Power: 0 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!

Sky Guys are Shy Guys that float using balloons. They appear in Paper Mario, where they shoot at Mario with a slingshot. Sky Guys are always red. The balloons keeping them afloat can be attacked, grounding them and turning them into normal Shy Guys.

Super Mario-Kun

Outside of battle, Sky Guys attempt to swoop down at Mario to try to make the First Strike just like Paragloombas.

Trivia

• Though Sky Guys themselves have only appeared in Paper Mario thus far, Shy Guy's Special Shot in Mario Tennis Aces involves him grabbing some balloons, much like a Sky Guy. Similarly, in Mario Strikers: Battle League, if Shy Guy wins a match, his victory animation has him floating in mid-air with some balloons; again, much like a Sky Guy.
