| '''Propeller Shy Guys'''<ref>''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' sticker.</ref>, also known as '''Flying Shy Guys''',<ref>"'''Flying Shy Guys''': These Shy Guys fly through the sky with the aid of little propellers attached to their heads. The fruit-bearing ones disappear once you steal their fruit. Should you run into a formation of four, defeating all of them with one egg toss wins you a melon!"- [[Nintendo 64]] Game Secrets, 1999 Edition [[Prima Games|Prima]] Official Strategy Guide. Page 109.</ref> are a subspecies of [[Shy Guy]]s that first appeared in ''[[Yoshi's Story]]''. They fly via a helicopter-like-pack which they carry on their back consisting of a two-blade propeller (on top of the pack) which spins on a horizontal axis and an eight-blade propeller (at the back of the pack) which spins on a vertical axis. These propellers are powered by the Propeller Shy Guys themselves, who continuously pedal with their feet to remain airborne, although the pedals are not visible.

| ==History==
| |
| ===''Yoshi's Story''===
| |
| In ''[[Yoshi's Story]]'', Propeller Shy Guys appear flying above [[Baby Yoshi]] carrying [[fruit]]. The Propeller Shy Guy will continue to fly back and forth in a particular area, but will immediately fly off-screen as soon as Baby Yoshi eats the fruit from the Propeller Shy Guy's hands. Propeller Shy Guys may appear alone, or in a swarm; after appearing they disappear off of the screen, reappearing in the background, and in the foreground again. They can be defeated by Baby Yoshi like any other Shy Guy; with the exception of the elite [[Black Shy Guy]], who has its own special characteristics.

| Propeller Shy Guys appear as a stage element, and as a trophy. They appear as enemies on the [[Yoshi's Story (stage)|Yoshi's Island: Yoshi's Story]] stage, carrying [[food]]. When attacked softly, or if an object is thrown at them, the Propeller Shy Guy drops his food and flies off the screen; if they are knocked out with an attack, they drop the food they are carrying, and spin downwards off the screen. They also sometimes appear in the background of [[Yoshi's Island (Super Smash Bros.)|Yoshi's Island]] stage from ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'', renamed Past Stages: Yoshi's Island.
