Pokeys are green cactus enemies that originate from the Mario franchise. They also appear in two The Legend of Zelda games, The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening and The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons. In both games, Pokeys have a green body, usually shown to be made up of two body segments and a head. Pokeys have the same coloration as in their debut appearance, Yume Kōjo: Doki Doki Panic and its western release, Super Mario Bros. 2.
History
The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening
In The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening, Pokeys are found in the Yarna Desert. If Link strikes a Pokey with his sword, one of its segments breaks off and begins to ricochet around the area. After a while, the segment disappears. To defeat a Pokey, Link must strike its head a few times. Pokeys can also take damage from bombs.
In the Nintendo Switch remake, after Link has completed Turtle Rock, he can go to Trendy Game to try and win a Pokey figurine.
The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons
In The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons, Pokeys appear in Samasa Desert. They have a slightly different behavior than in The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening; whenever Pokey is struck, its segments do not fly around the area, and if Link strikes a Pokey with his sword a few times, one of its segments break off. Link can also attack Pokeys by shooting Scent Seeds at them. If Link uses a Mystery Seed on a Pokey, it gains another segment. Pokeys can have up to four segments.
