Pungent is the shopkeeper of a hidden store inside the Great Tree in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. During the X-Naut invasion of the Great Tree, Pungent was one of the few Punies not to be captured by the extraterrestrial villains. He hid in his shop, until the entrance was blown away by Mario's ally Flurrie. Recognizing the plumber was there to help, Pungent aided Mario by selling him rare items. Pungry (a.k.a. The Mover) likes to hang out inside Pungent's shop when he is not working at the Pit of 100 Trials.
