Sky Guy

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.

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.
