[[File:Yellow Devil Attack.jpg|thumb|left|250px|The Yellow Devil's splitting attack in {{forwiiu}}.]]
The Yellow Devil appears in both versions of [[Wily Castle]]. It attacks players by shooting lasers out of its eye and splitting into sections and moving to the other side of the stage, mimicking its behavior in the original game. It can be damaged by attacking its eye, and once defeated, it causes a large damaging explosion, similar to the one of the [[Smart Bomb]]. The player who lands the killing blow on the Yellow Devil is not harmed by the explosion, and any [[KO]]s caused by it will count as their attack.

The Yellow Devil originally appeared in ''[[wikipedia:Mega Man (video game)|Mega Man]]'', where it served as the stage boss for the first stage of that game's Wily Fortress. It used attack patterns similar to its appearance in ''Smash 4'', splitting into multiple parts and moving across to the other side of the stage. The Yellow Devil's weakness was the Thunder Beam, which was obtained by defeating [[Elec Man]].

* When ''Mega Man'' was originally released in North America and Europe, the Yellow Devil's name was changed to "Rock Monster" in due to a policy Nintendo had against religious references in NES games at the time. This was reversed in the MegaDrive remake ''Mega Man: The Wily Wars'' where its name was reverted back to its original Japanese name, where it has been retained ever since.
