::As explained above, they're both just called Pokey in Sticker Star, these are obviously based on the original Pokeys in SMB2, and the other colored enemies in Color Splash are merged.

:::However, it should be noted that in Sticker Star Green Pokeys have higher HP than normal Pokeys, in Color Splash Green Pokeys have a higher attack power than normal Pokeys for all but one attack, and in both games, they're functionally different in battle - the normal Pokeys act as spiked enemies, the green ones do not. Meanwhile, the color variants of Shy Guys and Snifits in Color Splash are 100% identical in combat, only differing in the amount of paint dropped and battle quotes, and Whistle Snifits are the same, with the additional difference that the blue and red ones summon Boomerang or Fire Bros. respectively rather than the standard Hammer Bro. that the green and yellow ones summon. "Consistency" with them is impossible since it's not actually the same situation. Furthermore, [[Gloomba|this isn't the first time a Paper Mario enemy is obviously based on a design that wasn't initially its own species]]. --{{User:Waluigi Time/sig}} 16:57, October 17, 2020 (EDT)

::::Thing with Gloomba is it was never identified simply as Goomba in the PM series nor is its name a simple color identifier, making it not a full analogue either. I also question why [[Red Spike Top]] was voted to stay split when it ''is'' functionally identical to normal Spike Top, much like the CS Shies.
