'''Whirly Fly Guys''' are a rare variety of [[Fly Guy]]s found in the game ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]''. They flash several different colors, distinguishing them from ordinary Fly Guys. They first stand on the ground. When the [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] approaches the Whirly Fly Guy, the enemy simply slowly fly up, getting away from the Yoshi. The Yoshi can't stomp the Whirly Fly Guy as it hurts the Yoshi. If a Yoshi swallows them, then spits them out, the Whirly Fly Guy are changed to a green [[Shy Guy]]. They are much like normal Shy Guys at first. But when the Yoshi eats a Green [[Watermelon]], and attempts to shoot at the Whirly Fly Guy with [[Seed]]s, [[Coin]]s start to appear from the Whirly Fly Guy. When the Yoshi shoots enough seeds at the Whirly Fly Guy, one or two [[Extra Life]]s are awarded to the Yoshi as the Whirly Fly Guy is defeated.
'''Whirly Fly Guys'''<ref name=guide>{{cite|author=Miller, Kent; Munson, Terry|title=''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' Player's Guide|date=1995|language=American English|publisher=Nintendo of America|page=[[Media:SMW2 Guide 128.jpg|128]]}}</ref> are a rare variety of [[Fly Guy]] found in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' (and [[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3|its reissue]]) and ''[[Yoshi's New Island]]''. They flash several different colors, distinguishing them from ordinary Fly Guys. They first stand on the ground, and when a [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] approaches one, it slowly takes off into the sky. The Yoshi cannot [[stomp]] the Whirly Fly Guy. If a Yoshi [[swallow]]s one, then spits it out, the Whirly Fly Guy turns into a green [[Shy Guy]]. Whirly Fly Guys are much like normal Fly Guys at first, but when a Yoshi attempts to throw [[Yoshi's Egg|eggs]] at one, [[coin]]s start to appear from the Whirly Fly Guy. When the Yoshi throws enough eggs at the Whirly Fly Guy, one or two [[extra life|extra lives]] are awarded to the Yoshi as the Whirly Fly Guy is defeated. Alternatively, shooting seeds from eating a [[watermelon]] is effective as well.
 
Whirly Fly Guys reappear in ''[[Yoshi Touch & Go]]'', but they act slightly differently than before. Here, they hide in the grass, and when Yoshi approaches, they instantly zoom into the sky. If the player defeats one before it flies away, they are awarded four [[point]]s.
 
Whirly Fly Guys appear once again in ''[[Yoshi's New Island]]'', where they are now colored white, similar to [[White Shy Guy]]s. One appears near the end of [[Cave of the Nipper Plants]]. When the Light-blue Yoshi approaches it, the Whirly Fly Guy starts flying away in a straight line. As long as the Yoshi has eggs, he can keep throwing them at the Whirly Fly Guy to earn extra lives until it is defeated.
