**Shumi** is a character in Yoshi Resort, who is a cyborg that has been on many adventures but now has settled down to sell hidden potions within a cave. He is best friends with Tommy and has been on countless adventures with him in the past, though they don’t talk as much now.

## Appearances

Shumi’s most notable appearance is within his potion shop named *Shumi’s Brews*, which simply consists of a dingy stand hidden within a cave that can only be found by swimming through a small passage next to the stairs leading up to the Minigames. Shumi has been forced to build his store here in order to keep it a secret from not only the Yoshi Resort authorities who aren’t exactly up for the idea of selling potions, but also Llama who has previously destroyed the past potion shops he set up and replaced them with other stuff. The player can interact with Shumi here and they will be taken to a unique area where they can either chat with him to hear the nonsense wall of text he has to say, try to sell items to him which he will refuse to buy or actually buy longtime potion effects in exchange for Tokens. He offers either Strength for 35 Tokens, Slow Falling for 15 Tokens or Swiftness for 15 Tokens - after the player is done dealing with him they may leave the cave via a sewer system which leads out into the local water body within the Resort centre.

Also, Shumi owned a scraps shop on the opposite side to his potion shop (next to the Quests and Marketplace) though it wasn’t anywhere near as hidden and could just be entered through the doors, with a sign on the outside saying *Shumi’s Robotics and Scraps*. In here there was a giant robot he has built and he could sell some more minor robots or parts of them in exchange for Tokens, though business here hadn’t been booming really since people either didn’t need or care about what he was selling. More recently, this shop was taken over by Llama completely since he found him annoying and he moulded it into his own scraps shop. If anything, it goes to show that maybe he should have hidden this shop too instead of having it out in the open.

Shumi can also be found in Krabby Land, which is found by following a path up from the same side as his potion shop (Minigames side) is on and up to a sign which points to the Yoshi Cafe and Tommy’s house. Here it is revealed that Shumi is actually Krabby the Clown and only cares about the children’s parents and their money, which makes him one big jerk when you think about it.

An oversized statue depicting a corpse of Shumi can be found lying dead on the ground, behind a hill near the Yoshi Arctic having been impaled by a diamond sword. Several creatures like Barakoas, Yoshis and even an Alien have gathered around the corpse with the Alien pointing and laughing at it.

## Trivia

* There used to be many more references to Shumi and places where he was present in the old Yoshi Resort map, such as being the protagonist of what is now the Doctor M. in the Sink Machine quest. In the Rebooted map, he now seems to be much more reclusive and usually lurks within the shadows in fear of getting caught by Llama - everyone has even nicknamed him *He Who Shall Not Be Named Here*.
* Shumi also existed as a character in Turtle Man and DaPhantom, who lives in Yoshi Resort and talks to the many characters for a long time on regular occasions. He has also been beaten up many times, but always seems to recover from these injuries pretty fast. He later was killed by a dog though.
* Within Shumi’s cave where he sells his potions, the creepy stalker found in some other areas of the map can also be found in the dark corner - just watching.
