It has been requested that this article be rewritten.
Spear Guys are tribal Shy Guys from Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, Yoshi's Story, and Yoshi's Island DS. Spear Guys are identical to Shy Guys, though they wear grass skirts, have a shield and a feather, have a yellow spear with a feather, and feature war paint on their masks. They can be thought of as primitive Shy Guys that form tribes in the Piranha Grove and other, typically forested areas. When confronted with danger, they will attack with spears. Basically, they are the Yoshi's Island variant of similar enemies such as Chuck Guys. Yoshi's Island's Spear Guys needed to be hit by an egg or eaten from behind to be defeated.
Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island
Yoshi's Island DS
Yoshi's Story
Paper Mario
Template:Ttydenemy Spear Guys live on Lavalava Island. They earlier appeared in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, and later in that games sequel, "Yoshi's Island DS". The only place they are found is in Jade Jungle, near Yoshi Village. Unlike the previous Spear Guys, Jungle Guys lack feathers and shields, and have a different spear.
They may either poke Mario with their spears, or throw them at him. After throwing them, they become normal Shy Guys.
Mario can't jump on them when they hold their spear vertically. However, they can switch the position of their spears, indicating which attack they will do. It is unknown if Spear Guys have any allegiance with King Bowser.
Mario Recreation Series
Mario Power Tennis
Spear Guy makes short appearances in Mario Power Tennis. Here, for his offensive and defensive power shots, Shy Guy will transform into Spear Guy and use his spear to hit the ball.
Mario Hoops 3 on 3
Though an official Spear Guy does not appear, for a Fly Guy's Special Shot, the Fly Guy wields a spear that turns the basketball yellow with electricity. This move is made by tapping an S shape on the touch screen and is called the Thunder Shot.
Mario Party series
Spear Guys appeared in Mario Party 7 as an orb (the Spear Guy Orb) and in Mario Party 8 as the shop owner in Donkey Kong's board. Mario Party Advance's Jungle Area also featured a class of Dancing Spear Guys led by a female Dancing Spear Guy named Hulu. In the same area, Mario or Luigi must duel a Spear Guy in order to get a duel game. That one speaks in first person.
Relatives
- Dancing Spear Guy – A hyperactive Spear Guy with a large spear
- Chuck Guy – Beanbean Kingdom variant
- Limbo Guy – Spear Guy appearing in Yoshi's Story
Trivia
- The Super Mario Bros. Super Show! episode "Jungle Fever" featured spear-carrying, grass skirt-clad Shy Guys identical to the Spear Guys or Jungle Guys. These unnamed Spear Guys, who took residence in the Amazon Jungle, predated the actual ones by many years, though, but it is possible that they were their inspiration.
