A shady tree in Trick or Tree

Shady trees are creatures appearing in all ghost-themed Duel minigames of Mario Party 6. They are black-colored ghost versions of trees who have two white eyes each. Shady trees always appear in groups, alongside inanimate shady trees, forming forests. Some shady trees appear to be very tall, as their root crowns cannot be seen through the cyan-colored mist in which they almost always appear. Their most prominent roles are in the minigames Trick or Tree and Something's Amist. In Trick or Tree, four of them appear in different sizes; after the minigame starts, they close their eyes, move, and shuffle around before stopping and opening their eyes again. After they stop, the player must choose a shady tree and climb it. The player who chooses the tallest shady tree wins. In Something's Amist, five shady trees appear. Once the minigame starts, the five shady trees turn to look at a hidden gemstone, which can be found only by observing their gaze. Shady trees also make minor appearances in Light Up My Night, Boo'd Off the Stage, and Boonanza!, where they serve as background elements forming a haunted forest.

Three shady trees also appear in the Miracle Book, where they appear on the page "Misty Surprise", playing a role similar to that in Something's Amiss.
