[[List of Mario Kart Wii tournaments#October 2008 Tournament 1|October 2008's first tournament]] required players to defeat a [[Big Pokey]] located in the center of Thwomp Desert. [[Bob-omb]]s are used to attack it, and as it gets damaged, body segments will move around. Making contact with the Big Pokey or its body segments will immobilize and knock players around for a few seconds. The tournament was later repeated as the second tournament of September 2009.

Notably, playing in this competition then playing a battle in Thwomp Desert without restarting the game changed the sand physics to work like the tournament, which would cause desyncs during online play.
