==The Pokey little Bramball==
{{talk}}
For a time, this was listed as a Pokey derivative, but was later declassified due to lack of explicit proof.

Thing is, though, they appear to have the exact same position and design of the eyes, while the spheres are roughly the same size as well. While this alone is very tenuous to use as proof, NSMBU had Bramballs do the exact same "turn into fruit" thing that Pokey and no third type of enemy does, which changes a few things in regards to that, I'd say. Maybe it could be considered a related species? [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 16:35, 13 April 2018 (EDT)

:It's actually so obvious that they have a connection. For example look at [[Peepa]]s, they look way more different than [[Boo]]s than Bramballs look like Pokeys and they're still classified as Boos. There is no reference for a proof that both of the ghosts are related. {{User:VOIDTHIS/sig}} 20:06, 20 June 2018 (CEST)
::Peepa's Japanese name is clearly related to Boo's though. Teren and Teresa. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 18:41, 20 June 2018 (EDT)
:::In my opinion, the "turn into fruit" thing is pretty significant to consider. [[User:MarioComix|MarioComix]] ([[User talk:MarioComix|talk]]) 02:25, 21 June 2018 (EDT)
::::They're possibly intended to be different. --{{User:FanOfYoshi/sig}} 03:40, 13 January 2019 (EST)

Bumping this to say I still support the reclassification of this. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 20:24, March 15, 2020 (EDT)
:Yeah, these are clearly a Pokey variant imo. {{User:Niiue/sig}} 20:26, March 15, 2020 (EDT)
::Bramball's internal filename in ''New Super Mario Bros. U'' at least is the final Japanese name, <tt>ibaramushi</tt>, with no sign of <tt>sanbo</tt> (Pokey) in texture files; however, both Bramball and Pokey share two textures called <tt>lm_01e</tt> (looks like a bright ball) and <tt>lm_02e</tt> (looks like a dark ball). I'm not sure if this is enough to consider Bramball a direct derivative of Pokey, but those are my findings so far.
