Kamek, Yoshi's New Island

Punkey the Pokey Prince is the boss of World 5 in the game Yoshi's New Island. He starts as a normal Pokey but is then enlarged with Kamek's hammer.

Punkey attacks by shooting Pokey projectiles out of the plant on his head and ramming into Blue Yoshi. The player can hit him by hitting his segments with eggs in order when spikes are not protracting from them. When Blue Yoshi hits his head, Punkey turns angry and starts drilling into Blue Yoshi. He eventually calms down but adds one more segment to his body. He adds a fifth segment when hit once again and is defeated when an egg hits his head again.
