Fat Guy

Fat Guys are corpulent, heavy Shy Guys. Fat Guys appear only in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, Yoshi's Universal Gravitation, and Yoshi's Island DS.

Yoshi's Island
In Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, Yoshi receives a Giant Egg from eating a Fat Guy. Giant Eggs can't be shot and cannot be taken out of the level they are acquired in. Instead upon using the Giant Egg every enemy on screen turns into a Star. Fat Guys may also be used as platforms, but after jumping on them, they will run faster; that applies to the Red Fat Guys only, since the Green Fat Guys always move fast. Oddly enough, when Yoshi has three giant eggs at his disposal, all of the Fat Guys will disappear until Yoshi uses at least one of the giant eggs.

Yoshi's Universal Gravitation
Fat Guys reappear in the Game Boy Advance game, Yoshi's Universal Gravitation where they once again appear as enemies and try to kill Yoshi.

Yoshi's Island DS
Once again in Yoshi's Island DS Fat Guys are enemies which try to defeat Yoshi and are eventually defeated by the green dinosaur himself like in all previous games.
