Four Pokeys (referred to as '''Pookies''' in the UK's ''Nintendo Magazine System'')<ref>''Nintendo Magazine System'' (UK) Issue 47, page 17.</ref><ref>UK ''Nintendo Magazine'' #54 (March 1997), page 23.</ref> appear in [[Shifting Sand Land]] in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and [[Super Mario 64 DS|its remake]]. Pokeys in this game have bright orange pupils. Here, Mario can destroy each body segment by punching it, kicking it, or throwing a [[Bob-omb]] at it; attacking the head defeats it and causes the whole body to instantly disappear. If Mario waits too long after destroying any of its segments, the Pokey will grow them right back. Pokeys give [[Blue Coin]]s when defeated. If Mario gets hit by a Pokey, he will lose two wedges of [[Health Meter|health]]. Due to their graphics being flat textures, Pokeys always face the camera in this game. | Four Pokeys (referred to as '''Pookies''' in the UK's ''Nintendo Magazine System'')<ref>''Nintendo Magazine System'' (UK) Issue 47, page 17.</ref><ref>UK ''Nintendo Magazine'' #54 (March 1997), page 23.</ref> appear in [[Shifting Sand Land]] in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and [[Super Mario 64 DS|its remake]].

In | In [[Super Mario 64 DS]] , the Pokeys' graphics are updated to reflect their design as seen in ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'' However, jumping on their heads now damages Mario instead of defeating the Pokeys, and therefore only punches and kicks can defeat them. Yoshi also has the ability to [[swallow]] Pokeys. They are now capable of turning, but graphically, they still use flat textures for their segments.<ref>[https://www.models-resource.com/ds_dsi/supermario64ds/model/24579/ Models Resource]</ref> | ||
