This is a list of profiles and statistics for Shy Guys.

Super Mario series

Super Mario Bros. 2

Super Mario Bros. 2 instruction booklet profiles

  • Shyguy - Red: A member of the "8 bits" (a club from evil dreams). He wears a mask because he's shy.[1]
  • Shyguy - Pink: He moves back and forth on the hills. Carefully avoid him.

Super Mario Advance

  • Bio: If you topple a giant Red Shy Guy, a heart will appear for the taking. There are Shy Guys of different colours, too.[2]

Mario Mania

  • Bio: The individual powers of these wandering zombies of the world of Sub-Con are really pretty weak. Shy Guys only pose a threat when there are so many of them that they're difficult for heroes to avoid.[3]

Shy Guy
Tribe: Trudge clan
Disposition: Quiet and meek
Game appearances: USA
Always wandering around.
They are familiar to us because they appear in USA the most. They are always just walking around. There are two kinds: Reds that walk past you, and Blues that walk around in the same place.

Yoshi franchise

Yoshi's Island series

Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island

  • Shogakukan guide: いろんな種類だいるが、ノーマルタイプならふらふら歩いてるだけで恐くない。[5] (There are many different types, but the normal type is just wandering around and not scary.)
  • Player's Guide: Yikes! They're everywhere! Shy-Guys move slowly and tend to stay in groups for protection.[6]

Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3

  • Shogakukan guide: 球状の足場に止まり、足場といっしょにグルグル回っている九官鳥。タマゴを当てるか、ふんでしまおう。[7] (In addition to the normal type, which wanders around, there are many other types. When you hit them with an egg, they roll until they hit an enemy or an obstacle.)

Yoshi Touch & Go

  • Shogakukan guide: まっさぐ歩いてきて、足場の端まで来ると引き返す。動きが単 純なので倒すのは簡単。何匹も固まっているときは、まとめて囲んだり、タマゴで一気に倒したりして、ボーナス点を稼ごう。[8] (They walk straight at you and turn back when they reach the edge of the platform. Its simple movements make it easy to defeat. If there are many of them clustered together, surround them all at once or use an egg to knock them down all at once to earn bonus points.)

Yoshi's New Island

  • Shogakukan guide: 地上をゆっくりと移動する。食ベてタマゴにするのにうってつけ。赤いもののほかに、緑・黄色・ピンクなどの色違いもいる。動きには差はない。[9] (They walk slowly on the ground. They are ideal for eating and turning into eggs. In addition to the red ones, there are also green, yellow, pink, and other color varieties. There is no difference in their movements.)

Yoshi's Story

  • Shogakukan guide (shared with Shy Guy Galleon): 油断もスキもないおじゃま軍団。とうとう潜水艦や海賊船までくり出して、ヨッシーがやってくるのを待っている。[10] (The Ojamama Army is not to be outdone. At last, even a submarine and a pirate ship are waiting for Yoshi's arrival.)

Yoshi Topsy-Turvy

  • Shogakukan guide: 「舌を伸ばして食べる」「ジヤンプして踏みつける」「岩などを転がしてつぶす」の、いずれの方法でも倒せる。なお、体の色による違いはない。[11] (They can be killed by any of the following methods: extending one's tongue out and eating it, jumping and stomping on it, or rolling over rocks and crushing it. There is no difference in body color.)

Yoshi's Crafted World

  • North American website bio: Shy away from these masked enemies, unless you plan to gobble them and turn them into eggs.

Mario Kart series

Mario Kart DS

  • Website Stats
    • Acceleration: ***
    • Top Speed: *
    • Off Road: ***
  • Website/manual Bio: Shy Guy stares out from behind his mask, his gaze revealing the hidden weaknesses of his opponents. Shy Guy appears only in DS Download Play matches.

  • Bios:
    • Websites:
      • Flag of the United States of America since July 4, 1960. For North American (and sometimes South American) release dates. He may be hiding behind a red robe and mask, but Shy Guy really loves to show off his love of racing.
      • Flag of the European Union (previously the European Economic Community). For European release dates. The diminutive Shy Guy won’t be bullying the big boys, but his light frame does make for superb handling.
    • Guide: This plucky lightweight has the outstanding acceleration and drifting you'd expect from someone his size. Like similar characters, his speed is fairly low, but Shy Guy has nothing to be ashamed of.

The Shy Guy + Standard Kart trophy states that Shy Guy made his debut as a racer in Mario Kart 7. This is untrue. Shy Guy actually made his debut as a racer in Mario Kart DS, albeit only in the game's local multiplayer mode.

What hides behind that smooth, white mask? Shy Guys aren't about to show you, that's for sure. In Smash Run, each color of Shy Guy has different characteristics, and the red ones are the best at attacking. They've learned how to deliver a combo of angry punches if they can get close enough! These bashful baddies are so shy that no one's ever seen their real faces. Since their debut, all kinds of different Shy Guys have come out of the woodwork, and in Smash Run, each colour has its strengths. The red ones are better at attacking and hit you with punch combos. Beat them to get your hands on some Attack stat boosts.
These bashful baddies are so shy that no one's ever seen their real faces. They debuted in Doki Doki Panic before becoming a Mario series mainstay when that game was reworked into Super Mario Bros. 2. They come in different colors, each with unique characteristics. Some can walk on stilts; others are always on fire! These bashful baddies are so shy that no one's ever seen their real faces.

Blue Shy Guy BlueShyGuyTrophy3DS.png N/A N/A These guys are too shy to show you their real faces, so they hide them behind white masks. Some people claim they've seen Shy Guys walking on stilts or even running around on fire! In Smash Run, the blue Shy Guys have better defense than other Shy Guys, but that really isn't saying much... Just what IS beneath this Shy Guy's mask? Could it be...another mask?! Anyway, Shy Guys come in lots of varieties: some walk on stilts, others are always on fire! In Smash Run, these blue ones have better defence than the others. It's only slightly better, though, so don't worry. Defeat them to get yourself some Defence stat boosts.
Yellow Shy Guy YellowShyGuyTrophy3DS.png N/A N/A Those white masks are just eerie, but it's possible they are better than what actually hides behind them... Anyway, some people claim to have seen tall Shy Guys with longer masks than normal. In Smash Run, yellow Shy Guys are great jumpers, so they'll drop Jump stat boosts when defeated. Did you know there are lots of different kinds of Shy Guy, including massive ones with giant masks? In Smash Run, yellow Shy Guys are slightly better at jumping than the others. Sometimes, though, they're just too busy bouncing to attack. Take them down to get Jump stat boosts.
Green Shy Guy GreenShyGuyTrophy3DS.png N/A N/A Perhaps the white mask just conceals another, whiter mask beneath? There is no way to know, as these shy fellows will never take them off. In Smash Run, the green Shy Guys can run faster than other Shy Guys. You'll have to be quick to catch them, but you'll be rewarded with Speed stat boosts! Their white masks certainly make them look the same, but on the inside, Shy Guys are very different - some dream of being soldiers or dancers! In Smash Run, the green ones are fast on their feet, so they're quick to close in and hit you with a punch combo. Deal with them to get Speed stat boosts.
Shy Guy + Standard Kart StandardShyGuyTrophy3DS.png N/A N/A Shy Guy makes his debut as a racer in Mario Kart 7 once you win the 150cc Shell Cup. He's a lightweight racer with superb handling. Watch out for the eight Shy Guys racing around the Rainbow Road stage—they'll happily run you over if you get in their way! Shy Guy makes his debut as a selectable character in Mario Kart 7, and all you have to do to unlock him is win the 150cc Shell Cup. He's lightweight, like Toad and Koopa, and has excellent handling. The Rainbow Road stage has eight Shy Guys whizzing around the track, so be careful not to get hit, or you'll go speeding off the stage!
