{{quote|So, you came, did you? I’m General Guy. We’re following the orders of King Bowser by guarding a Star Spirit. As long as we keep it secure, we have permission to do what ever we want. You hear!? I don’t care for you, sir. You are rude, and furthermore, you’re trespassing in here. Our Toy Box is off limits for the likes of you! The treasures inside this box are for Shy Guys only! And that Star Spirit's fate is none of your business! Prepare to fight me, sir! TASTE DEFEAT! CHARGE!!|General Guy|Paper Mario}}

'''General Guy''' is the leader of the [[Shy Guy]]s and the mastermind responsible for the numerous robberies in [[Toad Town]] during the events of Chapter 4 in ''[[Paper Mario]]''. His main base of operations is the [[Shy Guy's Toy Box]]. General Guy presumably rules over all Shy Guys loyal to Bowser, although most Shy Guys simply answer to Bowser himself. 

==History==
===''Paper Mario''===
[[King Bowser]] orders General Guy and the [[Shy Guy Army]] to guard [[Muskular]], the fourth [[Star Spirit]]. However, General Guy and his troops are very disorganized which allows [[Mario]] and his partners to easily infiltrate his base and defeat many of his soldiers. Later on, Mario manages to corner a large group of Shy Guys. They manage to escape by breaking through a wall where on the other side, they are reunited with General Guy. Soon after introducing himself, he prepares to battle Mario for the Star Spirit. In the end, despite his large number of soldiers and his powerful [[Toy Tank]] he is defeated by Mario and his companions, and he proceeds to flee with his Shy Guys whilst screaming in terror. In ''Paper Mario'''s end parade, General Guy and several [[Groove Guy]]s dance on a float. 

===''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''=== 
General Guy appears again in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' as a [[Sticker]] that raises Launch Power by 31 points.

|tattle=This is General Guy in his tank. The tank seems to be dangerous even though it's a toy. Not only does the General give commands from the tank, but he also throws bombs and uses electric attacks. The power of his electric attack is 5, and your party member takes 2 damage points, so defend yourself carefully. He'll lose the electric attack if we break the light bulb. Normal fighting styles seem ineffective because the tank is well fortified.

Before battling General Guy, Mario must fight the [[Shy Squad]] which has a max HP of 15. General Guy then summons two [[Stilt Guy]]s with each one having a max HP of 7. After defeating them he summons two [[Shy Stack]]s who have a max HP of 10 each. After defeating them the battle with General Guy and his massive Toy Tank begin. The light bulb on his tank can release a bolt of electricity that can cause 5 points of damage. Once the light bulb is destroyed General Guy attacks by using [[bomb]]s that can cause 4 points of damage. General Guy is defeated after another wave of attacks, and his tank falls apart. After his defeat he gives up 36 [[Star Points]].

==Character Description==
===Physical Appearance===
General Guy is a grey robed Shy Guy wearing a peaked cap, shoulder patches and a gold medal with a red ribbon on it.

===Personality=== 
He has a straightforward and military-esque way of speaking as noted by the way he commands his troops and the way he speaks to Mario, who he will often address as "Sir". He appears to be very overconfident as he had no doubts of defeat before facing Mario. He has great deal of faith in his army and vice-versa even referring to them as "brave" and they obey his orders without question. He also seems to be very loyal to Bowser, as noted when he addressed him by the full title of "King Bowser" and was willing to do whatever it took to protect the Star Spirit. After his defeat he is shown screaming in fear with the rest of his soldiers and running in panic before escaping implying that he may actually be a coward.
