"''Whenever you come across two pairs of limbo guys, avoid jumping over their poles one at a time.''"</ref> or '''limbo Shy Guys''',<ref>"''Out came the limbo Shy Guys, who kept the beat, while the Yoshis danced.''" – ''Yoshi's Story'', Shy Guy Limbo ending quote.</ref> are a subset of [[Spear Guy]]s that do the Bamboo Dance.<ref>''Super Smash Bros. Melee'', Shy Guys trophy (set to English). "''There are many types of Shy Guys: they've been known to''[...]''do the Bamboo Dance''[...]"</ref> While [[Dancing Spear Guy]]s jump around with spears, bamboo dancers always come in color-coded pairs and dance with limbo sticks. Their sticks can trip [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]]s and [[Health Meter#Yoshi's Story|lower their happiness]], so they must be [[jump]]ed over to avoid damage. During gameplay, one dancer is in the foreground while the other is in the background, making them invincible. Bamboo dancers appear as enemies only in [[Shy Guy Limbo]] in ''[[Yoshi's Story]]''. | |||
The artwork and sprites for bamboo dancers appear quite differently, as the sprites appear to be wearing yellow face paint and grass skirts in the same manner as Spear Guys, while the artwork depicts one with an unpainted mask and a much less leafy skirt. In addition, their shoes are green in the artwork instead of blue. | |||
In ''[[Mario Party Advance]]'', a female bamboo dancer named [[Hulu]] appears as a character; however, she more closely resembles a Dancing Spear Guy. | |||
