The '''Shunned Guy''' is a [[Slurp Guy]] first found in the [[Indigo Underground]] in ''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]''. It can be located in a small cave branching off from a platforming room next to an upward-moving block. It is seen sucking the color out of a [[Toad (species)|Toad]]. When [[Mario]] approaches it, it suddenly bends backward unnaturally and spots Mario before moving towards him similar to a [[2-Fold Goomba]] or a bug, initiating the battle. | The '''Shunned Guy''' is a [[Slurp Guy]] first found in the [[Indigo Underground]] in ''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]''.

Mario tries to escape, but he's unable to. Attacking the Shunned Guy with Jumps or Hammer doesn't damage it, but it can be defeated with fire-based attacks, outright stated from one of its in-battle quotes. | ||
The Shunned Guy is also the final opponent in the third [[Roshambo Temple]] tournament before the [[Rock Paper Wizard]]'s appearance. | The Shunned Guy is also the final opponent in the third [[Roshambo Temple]] tournament before the [[Rock Paper Wizard]]'s appearance. | ||

Yet another appears in the [[Sunset Express]] scaring one of the Red Rescue Squad members. In both appearances, a Shunned Guy can be defeated outside of battle with First Strike attacks, but still retain their invulnerability to Jump and Hammer attacks in battle. | ||

*The theme that plays during the battle with the first Shunned Guy is an arrangement of a horror movie-style theme that plays earlier in the game when Mario first witnesses a Slurp Guy draining color from a Toad. | *The theme that plays during the battle with the first Shunned Guy is an arrangement of a horror movie-style theme that plays earlier in the game when Mario first witnesses a Slurp Guy draining color from a Toad. | ||
*The first Shunned Guy encounter, in its entirety, is a tribute to the horror genre, particularly horror movies: the entire room leading to it is quiet except for an ambient track, and the scene which introduces it shares lots of qualities with the typical reveal of a horror monster, such as the slow camera pan and the single piano chord that plays afterwards to underscore shock as it bends back unnaturally, a reference to certain humanoid creatures found in supernatural horror that are able to do the same. | *The first Shunned Guy encounter, in its entirety, is a tribute to the horror genre, particularly horror movies: the entire room leading to it is quiet except for an ambient track, and the scene which introduces it shares lots of qualities with the typical reveal of a horror monster, such as the slow camera pan and the single piano chord that plays afterwards to underscore shock as it bends back unnaturally, a reference to certain humanoid creatures found in supernatural horror that are able to do the same. | ||
