Species[edit]
Though the card it came from refers to it as a Pokey, it is actually a Big Pokey, as the game's sole "regular" Pokey was a reddish-orangeish-brownish color with a yellow flower. Of course, this came before the "Big Pokey" nomenclature, but what I'm getting at is: What should we do with it being on the regular Pokey gallery?

- On a related note, another card refers to a Prickly Piranha Plant as simply a Piranha Plant. I think we should probably take this image out of the Pokey gallery, or give the gallery a derived species section. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 21:11, 29 January 2018 (EST)
- It's similar to the Dry Bones and Blooper article, where the artwork used is actually a Mega Dry Bones and Mega Blooper respectively. I still think the artwork is pretty representative of the species, since the size of the enemy does not exhibit any more physical differences that would make it apparent from the parent species.

- I'd normally agree, but the problem with that is that in SMG, the only regular Pokey looked quite a bit different, being a completely different color. And given how many redesigns Pokey went through, "representative" may be a bit of a strong word. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 21:21, 29 January 2018 (EST)
- Probably should get rid of it in the gallery then. Ray Trace(T|C) 15:13, 30 January 2018 (EST)
- I ended up moving it down into a "related" section. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 00:29, 1 February 2018 (EST)
