Shy Guys make their first Mario game appearance in Super Mario Bros. 2, although the Shy Guys' real first appearance is in Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic. In this game, Shy Guys, with the other 8 bits help Wart conquer the Subcon. They attack Mario, Luigi, Princess Toadstool, and Toad by walking in their general direction. They can be easily disposed by being picked up and thrown against another enemy or into a nearby abyss. They can also be defeated by having an object thrown at them. Red Shy Guys walk off ledges while pink ones don't, striking a resemblance to Green and Red Koopa Troopas respectively, although the primary difference is that Red Shy Guys are known to turn in the direction of the player after landing. Red ones are also known to ride Autobombs and Ostros and often appear out of Vases. Pink ones became blue in the remakes of Super Mario Bros. 2. The Super Mario Advance remake introduces Giant Shy Guys. It takes time to pick them up because of their size. If the player picks up a Giant Shy Guy and throws it, hitting the ground or hitting another enemy with it, it will drop a heart.
