In this game, they have pink [[Flower (Super Mario Sunshine)|flower]]s on their heads, large mismatched eyes, wide grins high on their faces, and spikes that somewhat resemble stubble. Pokeys lie in wait underground, with only the flower on their head visible at first, and will pop up when Mario approaches. They predominantly appear in [[Bianco Hills]], but they also appear in [[Pianta Village]], during the nighttime episodes, and in [[Pinna Park]], in [[The Wilted Sunflowers]]. They do not move from their spot but will lean towards Mario when he gets within their range to attack him. However, as they touch the ground, their spikes get stuck in it for a moment, allowing Mario to attack their heads with a jump or dive for a single [[coin]]. If Mario defeats a Pokey while it is upright, it yields three coins instead of one. Some leave behind a [[Blue Coin]] when defeated; jumping on these while upright yields two regular coins in addition. One can see [[goop]]y bubbles rising from the flower on their heads as they bop up and down; according to the ''[[Super Mario Bros.

Encyclopedia''}} The title of the box is 「クッパＪｒ．の落書き!」 which means ''The graffiti of Bowser Jr.!'' and the text says 「本作の敵キャラクターたちは、クッパJr.が落書きで生み出したという設定。そのため、水に弱かったり、デザインが他のシリーズと少々異なっていたりする。ヨッシーも、同様の理由で水に落ちると消えてしまう。」 which means ''This game's enemy characters are created by Bowser Jr.'s graffiti. That is why they are weak to water, and differ slightly in design from the rest of the series. Yoshi also vanishes if he falls in water for the same reason.''</ref> | ||
