A '''Shy Ranger''' is a camouflaged [[Shy Guy]] that appears in the [[Pipe Vault]] of ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'' and [[Super Mario RPG (Nintendo Switch)|its remake]]. They appear only around [[Piranha Plant]]s. Shy Rangers have high [[Speed]] ratings and as such, they will immediately run away from battle if encountered. However, if the party manages to defeat a Shy Ranger, twenty [[Experience Point]]s will be earned.

[[Mario]], [[Geno]], or [[Princess Peach|Peach]] with a Speed-increasing item, particularly [[Feather (accessory)|Feather]] or [[Troopa Medal]], can outspeed Shy Rangers before they escape. Geno additionally has the opportunity to outspeed it with [[Jinx Belt]], [[Signal Ring]] or [[Zoom Shoes]]. [[Mallow]] or [[Bowser]] can also barely outspeed it with the [[Super Suit]]. Shy Rangers can be eaten by [[Yoshi]] with a [[Yoshi Cookie]], providing a [[Croaka Cola]], although the chances of its occurring successfully is 25%.

A Shy Ranger will occasionally attack before running away. To attack, the Shy Rangers use a slingshot and fire a rock at a party member, an attack rating of one hundred. Immediately after attacking, the Shy Ranger will run away as usual. If the player afflicts Shy Rangers with a status ailment, they will stay and fight. They use, in addition to a slingshot, throwing knives and shuriken.

==Trivia==
*Shy Rangers fill a similar niche to Metal and Liquid Metal Slimes from the ''{{wp|Dragon Quest}}'' series, being difficult to defeat but offering a substantial experience reward. Within ''Super Mario'' RPGs, this niche is later filled by [[Amazy Dayzee]]s, [[Gold Beanie]]s, and [[Gold Koopeleon]]s.
*Shy Ranger is the only enemy in ''Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars'' that is immune to all four "elements" (Jump, Fire, Thunder, and Ice).
*Shy Ranger is also the only respawnable enemy that is immune to critical hits from [[Geno Whirl]].
*[[Spy Guy]]s from ''[[Paper Mario]]'' and Shy Guys that assist [[Gunner Guy]]s from ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' to attack Mario or [[Luigi]] both sport camouflage patterns on their coats (and masks in Spy Guys' cases).
*Shy Ranger in the Japanese version and the remake takes notice of [[Mallow]]'s [[Thought Peek]] when he uses it on them; in the middle of its thought, it tells the player to "stop reading [its] mind".
