In the ''[[Paper Mario]]'' series, Pokeys gained a few new abilities. Pokeys could now use their body segments as projectiles, launching them to attack opponents. Additionally, Pokeys gained the ability to summon other Pokeys, which would rise from the ground when called for. Also a new variety of Pokey was introduced, the Poison Pokey, also known as the Pokey Mummy.

In ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', a smaller version of Pokey, known as a Pokey Sprout, was introduced. Pokey Sprouts are just like regular Pokeys except they only consist of one body segment (the head). Regular Pokeys also appear. Both varieties have pink flowers on top of their heads. Additionally, both types hide in the ground, springing out when Mario approaches. Pokey sprouts can be defeated by spraying them into a wall. To defeat a regular Pokey, Mario must come close to the tall cactus, causing the Pokey to attempt to crush him. However, Pokey’s spikes will get stuck in the ground and Mario can jump on his head to defeat him. Additionally, these Pokeys have flowers on top of their heads.
