Jungle Guy

Jungle Guys are some variant of Spear Guys that live on Lavalava Island. The place they are only found on this tropical isle is in Jade Jungle, a place near Yoshi Village. Unlike Spear Guys, Jungle Guys lacks feathers and shields, and have a different spear.

It is unknown if Jungle Guys have any allegiance with King Bowser. Their spears always do three damage. After throwing them, they become normal Shy Guys, and do either 2 or 3 damage, depending on its attack.

Mario can't jump on them when they hold their spear vertically. However, they can switch their spear horizontally in their turn, so Mario can jump on them. How they hold their spear, differs their attack.

Trivia

 * When they turn into Shy Guys, they somehow can disappear their war painting without wiping their masks. However, that's impossible.
