'''Nokis''' are a race of short, shelled creatures which debuted in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]''. Along with [[Pianta]]s, they inhabit [[Isle Delfino]]. They thrive primarily in [[Noki Bay]]; many of the Nokis that reside there rarely rise to the surface of the bay, but instead inhabit a large underwater area located directly beneath the bay's large waterfall. Keeping with the Italian name theme, "Noki" is a rough homophone of "{{wp|gnocchi}}", a type of pasta.

Their profile in ''[[Mario Superstar Baseball]]'' reveals that Nokis evolved from shellfish.
 
The male Nokis are voiced by [[Scott Burns]]<ref name="email2">[[Media:Scott burns sms 2.jpg|Confirmation from Scott Burns via e-mail.]]</ref> and the female Nokis are voiced by [[Kit Harris]].

The Nokis first appear in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', they inhabit [[Isle Delfino]] with the [[Pianta]]s. Their primary home on the island is [[Noki Bay]]. While they inhabit Noki Bay, the Nokis appear in other areas of Isle Delfino. Most of the Nokis seen in [[Pinna Park]] wear clam like shells instead of hermit shells. In [[The Red Coin Fish|Episode 8]] of Noki Bay, many Nokis are seen floating on [[jellyfish]], this implies that Nokis are capable of surviving in underwater habitats, with little or no air available.

In [[The Red Coin Fish|Episode 8]] of Noki Bay, many Nokis are seen floating on [[jellyfish]], this implies that Nokis are capable of surviving in underwater habitats, with little or no air available. A trio of Nokis called the [[Buckies]] also appear in this game. They are called Plucky, Lucky, and Ducky.


Unlike Piantas, Nokis appear to be more trusting of Mario and more aware that he is not the real criminal. In Noki Bay, the [[Noki elder]] often aids [[Mario]] by instructing him on how best to go about his tasks. He also helps Mario by training him to use a deep sea helmet so that he can fight [[Eely-Mouth]] in Noki Bay, and later reap the rewards of the [[Coin Fish]].

Some of the Noki characters include:
*'''[[Buckies]]''' - a trio of female Nokis, named Plucky, Lucky, and Ducky, found at the start of [[Pinna Park]], often found commenting on the newest or most recently updated attraction.
*'''[[Noki elder]]''' - an elderly resident of [[Noki Bay]].
*'''[[Noki grandson]]''' - the grandson of the elder.
*'''[[Park director]]''' - the director of Pinna Park, oblivious to the damage being caused in his park.
*'''Dune Buddy''' - a Noki interested in [[Dune Bud]]s, found in [[Gelato Beach]].
*'''Mommy Noki''' - a Noki mother holding a bundled infant Noki, found in Noki Bay and Pinna Park. In episode 8 of the former location, she is married to the Noki grandson.
*'''Shell flautist''' - a Noki with a conch shell, found throughout various places, who plays the first six notes of the ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' [[Ground Theme (Super Mario Bros.)|overworld theme]].

====''Mario Superstar Baseball''====
Nokis are playable in ''[[Mario Superstar Baseball]]'' and ''[[Mario Super Sluggers]]'', making their first and only playable role. The Nokis in these games are female, and come in three different colors, being blue, red, and green.
Nokis are playable in ''[[Mario Superstar Baseball]]'', marking the first time they become playable. The Nokis in these games are female, and come in three different colors, being blue, red, and green, each resembling a member of the [[Buckies]]. Being a Speed type character, Nokis are generally fast runners, weak batters, and their pitching and fielding range from average to weak. Their special ability is the [[Sliding Catch]]. They have good chemistry with the [[Pianta]]s and bad chemistry with [[Petey Piranha]]. The profile for Nokis reveals that they evolved from shellfish.


Nokis can also been seen as spectators at [[Mario Stadium (baseball stadium)|Mario Stadium]], especially during the opening cinematic.
In ''Mario Super Sluggers'', while the Piantas share good chemistry with the [[Toad (species)|Toads]] and [[Toadsworth]], the Nokis have good chemistry with [[Toadette]], whose chemistry is neutral with the Piantas. In a similar manner, the Toads and Toadsworth have neutral chemistry with the Nokis. The Piantas and Nokis also have good chemistry with each other. When Mario meets the Nokis, he arrives in Mario Stadium and both the green Noki and the blue Noki are unlocked by playing a scout mission. Red Noki is unlocked by unlocking Blue Noki and Green Noki.


====''Mario Super Sluggers''====
In both games, the Nokis are generally fast runners, weak batters, and their pitching and fielding range from average to weak. Their special move in ''Mario Superstar Baseball'' is [[Sliding Catch]], while in ''Mario Super Sluggers'', they use [[Ball Dash]] instead.
Nokis reprise their role in ''[[Mario Super Sluggers]]'', being playable in the same three color palette as in the prequel installment. The Nokis good chemistry with the Piantas remains intact, while the bad chemistry with Petey Piranha is also a recycled feature. In this installment, Nokis also have good chemistry with Mario and Toadette, even though their friendship and interactions with both mentioned characters remain unexplored. A Noki's special ability is the [[Ball Dash]].
 
During the events in Challenge Mode, when Mario meets the Nokis, he arrives at Mario Stadium and both the green Noki and the blue Noki are unlocked by playing a scout mission. Red Noki is unlocked by unlocking Blue Noki and Green Noki.
 
Nokis can be seen as spectators at Mario Stadium, especially during the opening cinematic. In the third cinematic that plays after defeating Bowser in Challenge Mode, a Noki is briefly seen marching with Mario and the rest of the fleet towards the entrance of the [[Baseball Kingdom]], where everyone views the sunset at dusk before the lights turn on for the night.
