The unnamed Parrot's Stand is the Stand of the Parrot, main antagonist of Crazy Diamond's Demonic Heartbreak, a spinoff manga of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure.
The Stand's legs are also fully mechanical in appearance, with them starting from the center of one of the reels. These legs have another reels attached at where a knee joint would be, and they connect to large mechanical talons (similar to that of a large predatory bird)[1]
The Parrot's Stan appears to use punched cards as its primary form of attack. These punched cards are released from the reels on the body of the Stand. They are then punched and inserted into the target, before bursting out of their body through the mouth, ears, and other holes. Their eyes also gain a dimpled texture, with multiple holes appearing in them.
These Punched Cards force the enemy to re-experience past events, such as when it was used on Hol Horse he began to relive his confrontation with Dio. These past events even force people to reenact the event, such as Hol Horse moving to shoot as he did in his confrontation with DIO.[2] This can even be done to those who have not lived through the said past event, as Hiraoka was forced to relive the experience of Wilson Phillips, which caused him to crash his car.[3]

Sky High (スカイ・ハイ, Sukai Hai) is the Stand of Rikiel, featured in the sixth part of the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure series, Stone Ocean. Attached to the wrist of Rikiel, it allows him to control a colony of "rods", cryptids that can fly and suck the body heat of people.
Though never actually seen in the storyline, its Stand page suggests Sky High takes the form of a small beetle-like creature with four amphibian legs attached to its user's right wrist.
Sky High functions as a tool which allows Rikiel to control the mysterious cryptids known as rods (
The power of Sky High is linked with Rikiel's shifting confidence, and while it is inoffensive and even harmful to its user at worst, a confident Rikiel can masterfully use Sky High to almost kill two Stand users of Jolyne and Ermes' caliber.
Also called skyfish, rods are obscured, transparent, parasitic insect-like creatures that live in remote locations. Thus, their very existence could never be fully proven.[2]
Rods always float in the air and move at speeds untraceable to the naked eye, and have only been seen on cameras and video recordings.[2] Whenever they're flying, their wings rotate similar to propellers, and the direction in which they are flying depends on which direction their wings are rotating. Moreover, they are especially nimble and can slip through the tiniest opening[3] or evade Stone Free's punches.[4] Through Sky High, Rikiel discovered the rods' main source of sustenance: body heat.[5] By flying past other organisms, the rods can absorb the body heat as food and use it to fuel themselves. The rods can also find heat to absorb via heat-seeking organs located near their nose.
Before he could control them, the rods were causing numerous diseases on Rikiel because of their heat-sucking.[2]
Sky High's only power is to control and direct the rods.[3] However, the exact mechanism of that control is not disclosed and is theorized as a trust relationship.[6]
Rikiel exploits the rod's habit of sucking heat to rapidly and locally decrease the temperature of a selected body part from afar. When concentrated in one spot, the rapid decrease in heat can cause body parts and internal organs to become prone to disease and failure.[4] The closer Rikiel is, the more accurately he can direct the rods,[3] but he has enough control and range to target the eyelids of a flying helicopter's occupants.[3] Rikiel needs to concentrate to properly control the rods, and their effects can even backfire on him if he loses his cool. If he panics, Sky High unwillingly orders all nearby rods to stay still.[2][5]
This ability to create diseases enables him to cripple his enemies in various ways but also enhance his own abilities.
