Pokeys reappear in ''[[Super Mario World]]''. This time, Pokeys are yellow and cannot be defeated in the same way as in ''Super Mario Bros. 2''. Throwing a [[shell]] or a [[Grab Block]] at them defeats only one segment, although a [[Super Star]] will allow the player to defeat them entirely at once. [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] can also defeat a Pokey by sliding up or down a hill towards them. A [[Cape Mario|Body Press]] also defeats them. Another option is to defeat them with [[Yoshi]], who can eat their body segments one at a time. The number of body segments that Pokeys have depends on whether Mario and Luigi are riding Yoshi or not. If they are, Pokeys will have five body segments. Without Yoshi, Pokeys will only have three segments so that Mario and Luigi can [[jump]] over them. | Pokeys reappear in ''[[Super Mario World]]''.

Pokeys appear in a hidden area of [[Yoshi's Island 4]], as well as the [[Special Zone]] level "[[Groovy]]." Also, in ''[[Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2]]'', after the player completes the Special Zone and unlocks all of the exits, Pokeys will turn into gray creatures with a face on each body segment, which are serrated like [[Chainsaw]]s. | Pokeys appear in a hidden area of [[Yoshi's Island 4]], as well as the [[Special Zone]] level "[[Groovy]]."

The ''Super Mario Bros. 2'' design of the Pokeys was originally going to appear in this game, but was scrapped in favor of the yellow-colored design.<ref>[[tcrf:File:SMW_Prerelease_Pokey.png|File:SMW Prerelease Pokey.png]].

A Pokey can sometimes be injured by throwing a [[P Switch|Switch Block]] at it, although whether the Pokey is injured depends on how the Switch Block is thrown and it is not always consistent. No other enemy in ''[[Super Mario World]]'' shares this behavior. | |||
