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 it is never actually seen in the storyline, the page giving data on the rods and Sky High's Stand page display the Stand as a small creature that sits on Rikiel's wrist. It takes the form of a 4 legged creature with long 3 toed feet, and a long main body. The main body has very few features, with its only distinct features being 2 reflective green plates, red eyes, and a proboscis-type mouth. Sky High also displays a second head, which protrudes out from the top of the first head. This second head is smaller and yellow, with a look similar to that of a Pteranodon
Sky High functions as a tool that allows Rikiel to control a hidden species of creatures known as Rods (
Also called skyfish, rods are obscured, fast moving, parasitic insect-like creatures that live in remote locations. Thus, their very existence could never be fully proven.[2]
Rods primarily fly, utilizing 4 sets of wings to propel themselves forward.[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 extremely tiny openings (such as a web made by Jolyne with Stone Free [3] or evade the punches of Stone Free itself.[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.
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] Prior to him learning about his Stand Rikiel would even be harmed by the Rods, with them sucking the heat from his body and causing various diseases. Prior to learning about his Stand and gaining control of them, the rods were causing numerous diseases on Rikiel because of their heat-sucking.[2] This can still happen to Rikiel when he is in a stressful situation, with the Rods causing his eyes to flutter after being attacked by Jolyne and Ermes.
Rikiel is able to control all rods as long as they are in his line of sight, but the closer Rikiel is, the more accurately he can direct the rods,[3] However, they can still be controlled and effective at long ranges such as when he used the Rods to attack Jolyne, Ermes, and Emporio in a helicopter.[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]
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] Depending on where this decrease in temperature is in the body, it can cause a wide variety of effects, such asThe Idea for a stand based around Rods came from a TV show Araki had seen discussing them, though the name of the show is unknown.
