Pokey: Difference between revisions

In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'', Pokeys live in the [[Gritzy Desert]]. They start out as simple Pokey Sprouts with pink flowers but when engaged in battle, a Pokey will grow additional body segments. The four Mario Bros. of past and present encountered many Pokeys during their travels in the [[Shroob]] occupied Gritzy Desert. In battle, a Pokey will ram into a [[Mario]] brother to attack. Thus, to dodge this attack, the Pokey's body segments most be knocked away with [[Hammer]] strikes. This makes the Pokey shorter (allowing the Mario Bros. to jump over the cactus ghoul). The Pokey may also launch its body segments at the Mario Bros., culminating in a jump attack from the head itself. To counter this attack, the Baby Bros. should hit the body segments with their Hammers. The Pokey will jump normally when hitting Mario and will spin around once when hitting Luigi. A Pokey can also spin its body and shoot spines at the Mario Bros. The Pokey will spin the individual body part to the bro. it was wishing to attack. The player will have to jump to dodge these projectiles. In this game, only attacks to the head can damage a Pokey. The [[Skellokey]], a new variety of Pokeys, also appears in ''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time''.
