In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]'', Big Pokey appears as a boss in [[Doop Doop Dunes Grotto]] alongside [[Tower Power Pokey]]. In battle, it attacks by lying sideways and rolling forwards and backwards, an attack which can potentially damage Mario, Luigi, and [[Paper Mario (character)|Paper Mario]] based on how many segments the Big Pokey currently has. Destroying the Big Pokey's segments will deplete its range, although it can grow these segments back if Paper Tower Power Pokey has more. The only way to defeat Big Pokey is by attacking its head. | In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]'', Big Pokey appears as a boss in [[Doop Doop Dunes Grotto]] alongside [[Tower Power Pokey]].
