Pokey Pummel

Pokey Pummel is a 4-player minigame in Mario Party 7, and returns in Mario Party: The Top 100.

Introduction
The players are standing in the desert when four Pokeys appear out of the ground. Hammers appear in the players' hands.

Gameplay
The players must smack the Pokeys as fast as they can to send the segments flying. It takes five swings (three in Mario Party: The Top 100) to knock off each segment. The first player to defeat the head wins.

This is one of the minigames that can appear in Decathlon Castle. Here, the player's objective is to knock the Pokey as fast possible to earn as much points as possible, up to a maximum of 1,000.

Ending
In Mario Party 7, the remaining parts of the other players' Pokeys retract into the ground. The camera zooms in on the winner as they do their victory animation.
