'''Wonky''' is an information seller who lives in the [[Rogueport Sewers]] and is found in the game ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. He resides in [[Herb T.]]'s Cola Bar. For five [[coin]]s, he will give [[Mario]] information about legends, hidden treasures, or gossip. He may tell Mario anything from legends of the pirate king [[Cortez]] to gossip about [[Zess T.]]'s long lost sister. To find him, Mario must travel to the underground city below [[Rogueport]]. Wonky is shaped like an egg and his species is unknown. Wonky can also be seen in the Paper Game at the [[Pianta Parlor]]. In ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', Wonky's role was replaced by [[Garson]] and [[Carson]]. | '''Wonky''' is an information seller who lives in the [[Rogueport Sewers]] and is found in the game ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''.

Each story of Wonky's, like the ones Mario can hear from [[Grifty]], can be heard numerous times once he buys them, but are only open to him from Wonky as he progresses in the game. If bought at the end of the game, these tales will all be completely random. These stories are in alphabetical order, not chronological. | Each story of Wonky's, like the ones Mario can hear from [[Grifty]], can be heard numerous times once he buys them, but are only open to him from Wonky as he progresses in the game.

"I heard this one from my ol' grampa... It's a legend about one who will come to this town some day in the future. He will come when the sky grows dark again... Clothed in red and blue, the hero will bear seven stars and face the darkness... I don't know what that's supposed to mean, but I see that you wear red and blue. If the hero turned out to be you... Well, I guess that would be a bit much, huh?" | "I heard this one from my ol' grampa... It's a legend about one who will come to this town some day in the future.

"Way, way down to the south is an island where lots of Yoshis live. And Yoshis are born from [[Yoshi Egg|eggs]], as everyone knows, but a Yoshi's color depends on its egg conditions right before hatching. So it's always a surprise to see what comes out, know what I mean? Your Yoshi has a rather nice color, by the way. I'm sure he'll grow up to be a fine Yoshi, yup." | "Way, way down to the south is an island where lots of Yoshis live.
