How to tell from a flower

In SMS you can tell a pokey sprout from a flower just by spraying them because they don't sing like flowers do. I don't think that was included. TimTamChimchar 06:36, 24 June 2010 (UTC)

I included it.

There is an image of a Pokey Sprout in Super Mario Galaxy or Super Mario Galaxy 2 ? Sonic98 (talk) 04:27, 9 May 2013 (EDT)

I don't think so. Icon showing how many lives Mario has left. From Super Mario 64 DS. It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 19:34, 9 May 2013 (EDT)

Naming

For future reference, the Player's Guide (written by Alan Averill and Jennifer Villarreal) is vague about names: "Shoot the poofy flowers with FLUDD, or Body-Slam them to make them drop coins. Spray them into a wall to get lots of coins." (Page 32) Meanwhile, the BradyGames guide (written by Tim Bogenn and Doug Walsh) lists the enemy as "Sanbo Head" and consistently uses that name, but its enemy names are not reliable. The Versus Books guide (written by Casey Loe) also uses the exact same names as BradyGames, so not much hope there. Hello, I'm Time Turner. 14:32, 1 August 2017 (EDT)

Pokey Head = Pokey without its segments

Are Pokey Heads basically Pokeys with just their heads, or are they an individual subspecies? Sprite of a Goomba from Super Mario Bros.DarkNightSprite of a Piranha Plant from Super Mario World 18:40, August 8, 2020 (EDT)

They're a distinct thing. In Sunshine, Pokey Heads are actually distinctly larger than normal Pokeys' heads. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 19:07, August 8, 2020 (EDT)
